5.0 out of 5 stars THE book for anyone interested in cohousing, 24 Dec 1998

By A Customer

This book has everything: photos, diagrams, plans of action, references, and more. For the beginner, this book defines cohousing & makes it possible to visualize this type of community. For people who already know what cohousing is, this book gives you step-by-step information on how to make a cohousing community a reality.

5.0 out of 5 stars An inspiration, 8 Jan 2004

By	"helpmedeclutter" - See all my reviews

I came across the concept of co-housing whilst looking for intentional communities that didn't involve living in a Yurt or joining a commune. The brilliance of the idea is obvious and this book goes into detail about the forming and running of co-housing developments.

The authors visited a lot of developments, talked to residents in-depth and give plenty of detail about how they function. They discuss the pros and cons and covered the teething problems some of the communities experienced.

What impressed me was that I didn't end up thinking I needed to read something else to understand co-housing because this book is so comprehensive.

5.0 out of 5 stars Contemporary Urban Design Opinion Leader, 24 Jul 1999

By A Customer

How much action can one book trigger? I wonder how many of theprojects can be traced back to readers being inspired by this book.

Beautifully illustrated, well researched, the book conveys well the Aha erlebnis these architects must have experienced as they discovered these very liveable Danish communities.

For readers who like architecture and wonder what kind of housing community can deliver homeliness based on both privacy and community.
