The Baugruppen in Berlin:
About 10 years ago my brother and his wife joined group of 8 young families to purchase a piece of land and develop a group of houses together . Together with an architect they created , with much discussion and interaction between the groups, an Incredible place.They didn’t build to the maximum height, they didn’t build to the maximum density, they built to maximum enjoyment within their budgets and to suit their lifestyle .They purchased additional land to create a sunny garden with fruit trees and veggie patches.And for 10 years they saw their children grow up together.Yesterday was my niece Mathilda’s confirmation, to become a full member of the community.( #holy communion .We had a wonderful day ending in an open fire in the garden with neighbours and friends. all the kids of various ages running around between houses and gardens and seemingly not care who’s house is who’s.The same goes for the multiple dogs and cats running around.No picket fence. No double garage. No keep out signs. No maximizing gfa and height.Just maximise joy of life and time together. !And great to have breakfast with some AUSTRALIAN friends; who cake all the way to Berlin to study exactly that: alternative housing models.Sorry long story. Happy Pentecost !
