The Urban village project
A vision for liveable, sustainable and affordable homes
The Urban Village Project rethinks how we design, build, finance and share our future homes, neighbourhoods and cities. The aim is to allow for cheaper homes to enter the market, make it easier to live sustainably and affordably, and ensure more fulfilling ways of living together. The Urban Village Project would give access to shared facilities and services that keep you close to what you need on a daily basis. Communal dinners, shared daycare, urban gardening, fitness, groceries, and shared transportation; these aren’t simply perks that would come with The Urban Village Project. They're building blocks for creating a thriving community and a supportive everyday life for people of all ages, backgrounds, and living situations.
