Description
We are turning this old school into a cohousing and coworking space. It is a 1000 sqm house, fully equiped with bathrooms and kitchens.
The project is coming from a research called Architectural Democracy and the main cultural work there is being done by the non profit association World Music School ry.
Most of the work is around the shared spaces, production work, maintenance, small repairs, etc.
