After a first stop at the Basque Country Architecture Institute in San Sebastián, the exhibition Living Together is now on display at the arc en rêve. It looks back at the winning and finalist projects from the first edition of the award, organised around eight themes.

In Europe, collective housing is much more than just a form of accommodation. It is a fundamental part of a model of society based on a culture of sharing, the right to housing and a dense, connected urban fabric. With the aim of preserving and promoting these values, the Basque Country Institute of Architecture has joined forces with arc en rêve centre d'architecture to create the European Prize for Collective Housing. In 2024, the prize was awarded to the teams Esch Sintzel Architkten (Zurich) and Lacol (Barcelona) for the conversion of a wine cellar into housing in Basel and for the La Borda housing cooperative in Barcelona, respectively.

Presented at arc en rêve from 27 November 2025 to 1 March 2026, the exhibition Living Together, European Collective Housing Award looks back at the winning and finalist projects from the first edition of the prize, selected by an international jury chaired by Anne Lacaton. Organised around eight themes, it shows how collective housing promotes cohabitation within a community, influences the daily lives of its inhabitants and contributes to sustainable urban development. Through photographs, drawings and four films produced especially for the exhibition, Living Together offers an overview of the most important collective housing projects carried out in Europe in recent years, highlighting the main trends in this field and fuelling the debate on the future of collective housing on the continent.
