Social, cultural, and economic transformations are redefining the way we live, study, and work, shaping new hybrid and flexible spatial models. Student housing, co-living, and co-working are no longer separate fields, but parts of a single ecosystem capable of responding to constantly evolving residential, productive, and relational needs.

These spaces are becoming community hubs—urban infrastructures that foster sharing, access to services, and the building of relationships—generating value not only for their users but also for the urban contexts in which they are embedded. Architecture, management, and economic models intertwine, turning these formats into strategic drivers for city attractiveness and new investment scenarios.

The masterclass hosted by Rizoma Architetture brings together expertise from the worlds of real estate, consultancy, finance, and innovation to explore how these models can evolve into integrated environments that combine economic sustainability, design quality, and people’s well-being.
