cohousing
The recent upsurge in interest in co-living builds upon a much longer tradition of cohousing often associated with early developments in Denmark in the 1960s. These communal housing projects (bofællesskab), which sparked an international movement against the single-family home, have been called a "Danish blueprint for utopian existence." Unlike co-living, cohousing tends to be intergenerational and attempts to find an ideal balance between privacy and community. Cohousing also allows for private or collective homeownership, as opposed to the rental options primarily available through co-living, making cohousing a more permanent arrangement.
