A new kind of togetherness

The co‐housing project "Die Auenweide" is alternatively financed (“Vermögenspool”), affordable and natural living space in Lower Austria, 30 km from Vienna. The residents try out sustainable lifestyles and encourage rethinking.

Extensive common areas such as a co‐working space, a guest apartment and the community house enable togetherness through everyday encounters.

The eight private houses with apartment sizes from 35 to 115 m2 arranged around the green heart of the property offer enough space for individuality. The complexity of the residents is reflected in the protrusion and recesses in the individual structures.

The ecological construction, the use of alternative energy sources and the preservation of natural habitats stand for the careful handling of nature. The low‐energy houses are resource‐saving in prefabricated wooden frame construction and insulated with straw and jute. The outer walls are planked from the inside with clay building boards and fine clay plaster.
