Destination coliving has emerged as a distinct segment within the shared living landscape, combining elements of hospitality, remote work, and community-oriented living. What sets it apart is not geography or density, but the centrality of place itself - the idea that where you live is a deliberate choice driven by the character, culture, or lifestyle a location offers.

Beyond serving residents, destination coliving is increasingly being explored as a tool for place-making - activating locations, anchoring local economies, and building new communities around a shared sense of place.

While early narratives focused heavily on digital nomads, the resident profile is broadening, and the strategic motivations of developers and municipalities are becoming increasingly diverse - from coastal resort towns to mountain retreats to culturally rich urban neighbourhoods.

This session explores how destination coliving is evolving from both a resident and place-building perspective.
