Collaborative housing… a real trend?

In large cities, increasing urbanization and the cost of housing are pushing real estate players to reinvent the way we share space and therefore to propose new types of housing.

Thus, we manage to live in more people in smaller areas: share a large living room, laundry room, kitchen, storage … design versatile spaces (beds in a room that slide to become a sofa in the living room or retractable doors that modulate the available space according to needs …).

It is certain that this type of housing is very popular in the latest generation of student residences with common spaces of the para-hotel type.

Now large groups like Ikea and WeLive offer another way of living and not only for young students but specifically targeting young families with, for example, apartments of 84m2 for two families with two separate entrances.

Inventing tomorrow’s lifestyles with ever-increasing surface constraints …. the field of possibilities is open for creative minds!
