Summary:
Barcelona offers a prime example of the co-housing model as an asset prized for its use value as opposed to investment. This book is a compilation of cooperative housing projects in Barcelona, both complete and under construction. It explains how the co-housing process is managed in terms of architecture, urban planning, financing, legality, and taxation, and delves into the experience of living in a community fueled by a cooperative spirit. The content of the book presents designs for cooperative housing, accompanied by a critical vision of the model’s implications in terms of the transfer of use or co-living. Finished and inhabited projects are compiled along with ongoing projects, to offer a general view of this way of living in Barcelona. The case studies are explained by members of cooperatives, experts and designers who look at aspects of design, sustainability, construction and urban life. This book is a tool for understanding the design and construction of co-housing and the community life that goes on there.

Summary:
Cette deuxième édition apporte au lecteur des éléments de réflexion et d’information actuels sur la conception et la construction des logements collectifs, dans le secteur social aussi bien qu’en promotion privée. L’un des apports majeurs de cette nouvelle édition est l’ouverture à la dimension européenne. Produites dans des contextes culturels, économiques, réglementaires, techniques encore très différents, ces opérations peuvent toutes contribuer à une réflexion générale. Autre nouveauté de cet ouvrage, la question de l’aménagement est plus développée, le logement restant un élément structurant de la ville. Le lotissement et la maison de ville, assimilés à des collectifs horizontaux, ont également fait leur apparition. Ainsi, à propos de la réhabilitation, la thématique du renouvellement urbain domine, au point de faire passer l’intervention sur le bâti en second plan. Enfin, les préoccupations environnementales, simplement évoquées dans la première édition, sont considérablement développées. Le propos est renforcé par de nombreux témoignages et la présentation de 21 opérations exemplaires, de taille et de vocabulaire architectural très divers, qui font de ce livre un outil indispensable.
