THE ARCHITECTURE OF SHARING


From Crisis to Resilience





3Shared Houses
(Sdílené domy)
History and Foundation
In the Czech Republic, a housing initiative inspired by the German Mietshäuser Syndikat was founded in 2017. Formally registered as a civic association under the name Shared Houses, it now serves as an umbrella organization for social cooperatives that can collectively acquire and manage homes. The legal framework guarantees that once acquired, properties cannot be resold on the private market and will always serve a housing purpose.
