Housing cooperative
At La Borda, we aim to guarantee access to decent, social, affordable, and environmentally sustainable housing, with the aim of fostering new forms of coexistence and building community through interaction between neighbors. We seek a way of living that follows the values of feminist economics and the social and solidarity economy.
Our project
Grant of use
Neither renting nor buying. We are based on a non-speculative tenancy model that puts its residents at the center.
Funding
The project is funded through the solidarity economy, ethical finance, and contributions from organizations and individuals.
Life in common
Living together takes many forms; from conversations to catwalks, to assemblies or the activation of processes of mutual support or joint dinner in the kitchen-dining room.
Architecture
28 homes of three typologies and several community spaces make up a sustainable, community-based, and participatory project.
Can Batlló
La Borda was born from the recovery of the old Can Batlló factory, in La Bordeta (Sants), a neighborhood with a long tradition and presence of cooperatives.
Leasehold
Our project is built on municipal land designated as Publicly Affordable Housing (VPO), so we have a 75-year right to housing.
