Why I Made My List of 500+ Coliving Initiatives an Open-Source Project
Six months ago, I started monitoring every coliving space I could find.
Sooner than later, I started adding everything around coliving — from leading architects to interior designers, thought leaders to software initiatives, and every organization that is involved in the coliving scene.
Six months later, it has turned into a massive document of 500+ coliving initiatives. I started sharing the document with friends and realized the amount of value it has.
Today, I'm turning this into an open-source initiative.
And I call it — the Coliving Bible.
What the Coliving Bible is about
The Coliving Bible is the result of 100h+ of research in the coliving scene.
Within the Coliving Bible, you'll be able to find
- 300+ coliving spaces (including names and descriptions)
- 120+ architects, designers, softwares, developers, and organizations
- 50+ thought leaders, author, and experts
- which you can filter through locations, categories, and websites
Why did I do it? Because it's my mission to empower the coliving ecosystem and share key resources.
That is also why I created the platform Coliving Diaries and why will launch more initiatives in the months to come (yeah, stay tuned).
How to use it
The Coliving Bible is pretty big — and will continue growing. Here are a few ways to benefit from it:
- Use it for your own research: discover spaces and initiatives you never heard of
- Use for your own outreach: get in touch with the key coliving players
- Find relevant resources and articles by thought leaders
- Add coliving spaces and experts to your own startup or organization
As a side-note, I'll keep updating the Coliving Bible on a daily basis, and you can add your own initiative in a few clicks by following the provided link.
So if you haven't yet, then check out the Coliving Bible.

If you like this initiative, I'd love to ask for your help. Sending this article to ONE person in your network would help to spread the word.
You can also share it via Twitter, LinkedIn and Facebook.
We're doing this in support of the community. I hope you'll get value out of it.

About Me — I'm Gui and I explore the depth of coliving. In the past, I created several short-term coliving spaces in Barcelona and Bali. I'm currently documenting the coliving scene on the Coliving Diaries and will soon start a coliving world tour. You can find me on Twitter and chat with me here.
