Renovation in London. New co-housing space for the Y generation

Garden House is one of the co-housing spaces created in London by architects Tom and James Teatum with the aim of encouraging " the Millenials " to reverse the trend by spending more quality time within their homes thanks to the creation of working spaces that are both functional and comfortable at the same time. The team wanted to take a stand against the popular student-style living spaces currently on the market, where a large number of residents share completely impersonal environments

The building is located in the west of London and adds to the growing portfolio of properties of Noiascape, a project entirely dedicated to the creation of living and working spaces for the Y generation. The interior of the building has been completely reorganized in an attempt to increase the time spent at home by creating double-height, three-dimensional living spaces that facilitate working at home in an informal way

The spaces are " smooth, open and interconnected " and allow residents to socialize, work and spend time alone without being confined to their three bedrooms. A metal bridge separates the living space from a study above the bed, creating a physical separation between relaxation and work areas

Birch plywood furniture and containers are integrated into the partitions to enable tenants to move around freely. The red resin and cement floors create a pleasant contrast with the birch wood interspersed with "Millenial" pink and green surfaces

Garden House tenants will have access to all the shared spaces in Noiascape's building network, including the use of shared spaces within other residential buildings and events. This means that your private space is connected with a range of semi-public spaces throughout London

By applying this concept to a rented residential infrastructure, it is possible to bring out a new type of dwelling that offers much more than a single private space
