If a village had off-grid capability, would you live there? Power-positive homes, waste-to-resource systems, sustainable and localised food production...it's closer than you think. Already, thousands of people are on a waiting list to be the first residents of a pilot village in the Netherlands. The concept was rolled out at this year's Venice Architecture Biennial by Danish studio EFFEKT.
In a world where larger walls are being built around unsustainable homes and wealth is ever more concentrated, does this represent an opportunity to redefine how we use space and how we share resources?
