The last decade has seen a growing social movement towards
collectivity, sharing and participation. This paradigm shift is
reflected in architecture as well: In recent years, increasingly
innovative collective housing projects, organized around the
principle of trading in private spaces for larger, more luxurious
shared spaces, have been emerging across the globe - many of them
realized through bottom-up grassroots initiatives. The return of
the collective in architecture has resulted in surprising
architectural solutions that also create new urban spaces. The
publication Together! The New Architecture of the Collective
presents around twenty international building projects from Europe
Japan, and the US that provide innovative platforms for collective
living in the present day. A selection of projects are discussed in
detail, ad extensive photo essays offer rich and vivid impressions
of the daily collective and private lie and everyday routines in
these buildings. Interviews with movers and shakers from the
collective housing scene, written by international journalists,
offer insights and background information on the processes and
people that have made each project possible. All that is
complemented by theoretical and historical context, including
analytical essays by experts in the field, info graphics providing
facts and figures, diagrams explaining how different collective
housing models work, and an extensive timeline detailing genealogy
of the collective housing movement in the twentieth century.
