CO-LIVING R REDEFINING the concept of a 'home' E S E A R C H E S The goal is to combine design aesthetics and quality with privacy in an environment where there are also shared resources in a communal space. The social mix include students, singles, professional couples, single parents with 1-2 children, families of 2 adults and 1 or 2 children, elderly individuals or couples, and retirees. They cater to all kinds of travelers and professionals, including those who are older, so they understand that different people have different expectations and needs. Grade kitchens and large en suite bedrooms place Roam at the higher end of the luxury spectrum, what really sets them apart from hotels or a traditional residential setting is the community aspect. What differentiates co-living is the fact that you can land into a really interesting, rich, and diverse group of people who share a common thread. There will be an element of like-mindedness in the group, but at the same time, there will be variety. It won’t just be young professionals, older corporate individuals, retired individuals, creatives, or students. It’ll be all of these different kinds of people bringing in their own stories and backgrounds.
Co-living is a modern housing option that gives residents an opportunity to not only share their living space with one another, but also share similar intentions, values, and interests. It’s all about collaboration and openness in the 21st century. The sharing economy, along with an increased interest in living more sustainably and being part of a community, have inspired the birth of businesses such as Roam, making it easy to find flexible, affordable housing that’s centrally located in top locations across the globe. Even the most outgoing people sometimes need a little time alone, and with co-living spaces, you can certainly have the best of both. So, even though co-living fosters a sense of community and of being around others and collaborating with them, you can still enjoy some much-needed quiet time.
