CO-OP City
Future Collective Domestic
Multiple Authors

CO-OP City: Future Collective Domestic is a design studio in the KTH ABE Urbanism Studies masters program taught by Malin Heyman, Alejandra Navarrete Llopis and James Hamilton. The work has taken as its departure point Hannes Meyer's 1929 manifesto Bauen and the 12 motivations for building listed in it. Over the course of 12 weeks in 2019 and 2020, students have explored how labour, leisure and living processes traditionally associated with private and domestic life can become collective and public, through the organization and collectivization of these daily life actions. The studio has been engaged in the production of interventions of civic programs in Mexico City that support the collectivization of the private domestic sphere. The work has attempted to address questions like “How can public and private spaces within the city be used and organized to facilitate the collectivization of fundamental urban life processes? Who is served by these spaces and what interventions—from the scale of objects to public spaces—need to be made in order to support them?” Using historical and contemporary references—such as Dolores Hayden and Anna Puigjaner—the work has been grounded in ongoing discussions about the relationships between space, place, gender, economics and politics.
