Co-operatives: Living with water collectively | Design sprint & Symposium
Together with the British Council Hungary, the Global Housing Design Programme of Liverpool School of Architecture and MOME Architectural Knowledge Center’s MA program, MOME’s Society & Action Lab is hosting a unique interdisciplinary research and pedagogic collaboration.
The symposium aims to explore the question: How do we live collectively?
It will bring together students, researchers, and practitioners from Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design, Global Housing Design Programme of Liverpool School of Architecture and external academic institutions to discuss the layers and aspects of co-operative dimensions in different urban contexts. Through keynotes, research and project presentations as well as open discussions, the symposium connects theory and practice, situating contemporary student projects within the past, present and future of collective housing.

We are inviting university students who are passionate about collective living and interested in innovation and creative problem-solving to work together in interdisciplinary teams and create socially aware solutions.
The event takes place between 9-13 February 2026. The five-days programme includes a 4-days Design Sprint for university students and a public symposium as a closing day, where the students will have the opportunity to introduce their work for an interdisciplinary jury. The sprint comes with valuable prizes: each member of the winning team can take home €175 RyanAir & £10 Penguin Books gift cards.
The event takes place at MOME's campus.
Apply for the event until 30 January 2026 through here: https://forms.office.com/e/8RzGgmAWg9
