In The Hague a small urban development has been designed co-operatively by its residents along with their chosen architect. A great example of co-housing with a green agenda.
The location is called de Groene Mient. De Mient is the street where they are situated. Groen means green. And that is what united this co-housing group from The Hague. Having initially been unsuccessful in buying the land as a co-housing group, they approached the Hague Council to help them. A group of 33 households then started their journey with the council and their architect to design and develop their sustainable housing community. Terraced houses and apartments border a large central communal garden. The result is amazing. A green, tranquil and secure place created thanks to the ambitions and the care taken by the group.
