Green Symbiosis

Idea projektu

"One size doesn't fit all"
The very fact that the location is among the nature and quiet environment, it was a great potential in creating an unique place for alternative lifestyle. Regular interaction and mutual support are the primary benefits of Co-Living, therefore through modularity living close to each other is promoted. Imagine a neighborhood where families and individuals live in private homes but come together regularly in shared spaces such as communal kitchens, gardens, and recreational areas. This model encourages social interaction, collaboration, and a supportive environment where neighbors know and care for one another.
Key features is including shared decision-making processes, where residents participate in governance and contribute to the maintenance of shared facilities. This participatory approach not only strengthens the community bond but also enhances the quality of life for its members.
Our village is a green symbiosis which it gathers one another and creates a warm atmosphere where the community can interact with each other in common spaces or so and also help each other.
The grouping of the modularity units and their location at the height is intended to leave a minimal footprint, respecting the oasis to preserve nature and the surface of the land, which offers the opportunity to be used as an assets for the cultivation of cultures from which can benefit the whole community together.
Nature around the perimeter as well as with the interior courtyard as a space dedicated for common activities and socialization in the open surface would also contribute to the views towards the river and the hill terrain.

Popis projektu

The project consists of various components, including private and community spaces designed to cater to a diverse range of residents. In the private area, there are different types of apartments and houses suitable for families, retirees, students, and young adults, ensuring inclusivity and opportunity for all.

Community spaces are central to the project’s design, offering residents places to gather and interact. These include central gathering areas with communal kitchens and dining areas, multipurpose rooms with flexible layouts, and comfortable lounge areas for relaxation and socializing.

Outdoor spaces play a crucial role in connecting residents with nature and promoting outdoor activities. This includes shared gardens and green spaces where residents can cultivate plants and vegetables together. The addition of small ponds provides a refreshing retreat on warm days, enhancing the natural ambiance of the community. Physical activities and vegetables together. The addition of small ponds provides a refreshing retreat on warm days, enhancing the natural ambiance of the community. Physical activities and recreation are encouraged through well-designed pathways and access to nearby natural areas.

Rooftop activities are a highlight of the community, serving as dynamic spaces for a wide range of activities, such as gardening and meditation. Residents can engage in social gatherings, participate in fitness classes, and attend cultural events or educational workshops. These rooftop spaces are designed with sustainability in mind, incorporating features such as renewable energy for lighting and rainwater harvesting systems, aligning with the community’s commitment to environmental stewardship.

In conclusion, the project’s approach to community spaces exemplifies a holistic vision of community living. By integrating inclusive, functional, and sustainable design principles, these spaces enhance residents’ quality of life, foster meaningful social interactions, and cultivate a strong sense of environmental responsibility and community spirit.

Located on a spacious plot of land, the project emphasizes sustainability, communal living, and a harmonious blend of private and shared spaces. The project showcases the natural beauty and versatility of wood. The residential units are designed to maximize natural light and ventilation, with expansive windows and balconies that overlook communal green spaces and gardens. The use of wood as the primary construction material lends a warm, inviting atmosphere to the entire community.
The project prioritizes sustainability at every stage of development. The wooden structures are constructed using timber (which we designed them in cross like the Mies Van Der Rohe principe) , ensuring minimal environmental impact. Passive solar design principles are integrated into the architecture, optimizing energy efficiency and reducing reliance on artificial heating and cooling.
Living in a wood-constructed co-housing community offers numerous benefits to residents. Beyond the environmental advantages, such as reduced carbon footprint and improved indoor air quality, residents experience a heightened sense of community and well-being. The natural aesthetics of wood create a serene living environment that promotes relaxation and mental health.
Economically, the project demonstrates cost-effectiveness through shared resources and maintenance responsibilities. By pooling resources for larger community initiatives and repairs, residents enjoy lower overall living expenses compared to conventional housing models.
Modularity as a fundamental characteristic has the speed of building and being more practical.This type offers opportunities for everyone and for any specific reason, for example in the case of an increase in the number of family members, another living space is needed, the modular units can simply be changed or adapted being still a part of the community. Wood construction will help reduce the overall costs of the project making it more affordable.
