VOLUME 65: Living Together explores ways in which we cohabitate, capturing a wide array of modes and models of living across the globe. VOLUME 65: Living Together presents a mosaic of stories stemming from more than 25 countries - addressing both housing crises in different regions in the world, while also offering new perspectives, cases and creative engagements with housing, domestic issues, and potential futures for communal living.
VOLUME 65: Living Together presents a collection of articles showcasing innovative forms of collaboration and social cooperatives. Some draw inspiration from nature, while others independently develop new architectural models. The issue also rethinks social norms embedded in our ways of living through IKEA hacks, revisits well-known social experiments in real-life entertainment, and explores the promises and realities of smart cities of Toronto. In-depth stories report on the scandalous ripple effect of the Syrian civil war, the transitory routes used by migrants in the Balkans, compound life in Afghanistan, and the precarious position of mental health infrastructure in China. More hopeful stories come from Ivory Coast, looking at new projects in Abidjan, but also learning from cooperative practices popping up in many places around the globe from Zimbabwe, to Switzerland, Indonesia and India, and careful house construction in the Colombian hinterland.
