Designed to foster social interaction
Four privacy layers foster community, while respecting privacy
Private – Family – Shared – Public

Family room
Buildings are divided into community clusters, accommodating 15 to 25 people who exclusively share a fully-equipped family room

Shared area
Buildings feature shared areas, such as a rooftop or game area, which are exclusively accessible to the resident community.

Public areas
Primarily on the ground floor, buildings house public areas designed for resident and neighbours to meet and interact with each other.
Bottom-up facilitation
Each cluster is led by a Trailblazer, a long-standing resident who guides newcomers.
Furthermore, residents actively participate in orchestrating and evolving community events.

Meet the Nomad studio
Living comfortably in 25m² means rethinking space—not as something fixed, but as something that adapts to daily life. We started with a clear challenge: how to fit everything our residents need—a place to relax, socialize, cook, eat, sleep, work, and store essentials—into a compact layout without feeling cramped. The answer? A space that transforms throughout the day

Modular design to upcycle urban spaces
The Citylifer’s sustainability-focused design is based on an office grid structure. This innovative design allows to repurpose vacant inner city office buildings while also accommodating newly constructed development.
Benefits of upcycling

Reduced environmental impact
“The Citylifer could potentially construct over 53,000 Nomad studios in empty office spaces throughout the Netherlands”
