VISBO. Located on the island of Gotland, Visbo is a combination between the affordable townhouse and the sustainable Naturhus typology. This residential project intends to resolve both todays and the future demands on sustainable housing and how to create a better local community. Based on a case study of the ReGen Village, Visbo combines modern circular systems together with shared and collective spaces, forming a new townhouse typology designed to suit a wide spectrum of people. Through circular systems each building strives to become a producer of heat, energy and water. Large greenhouses make brief interruptions in the long row of townhouses, enabling new sources of light while blending inside, outside, private and collective. The greenhouse serves both as an extension of the private home as well as a connector between the different residences. Offering a shared space for social activities, farming and relaxation during an extended period of the year. Each greenhouse also has a separated area towards the street, dedicated to hold various communal functions such as shared workshops, home offices, a gym or a sauna. This new generation of townhouses offers a comfortable, affordable and sustainable way of life with a long-lasting perspective that cares for its inhabitants and our future.
