From intergenerational housing to a home with community

Just a few decades ago, intergenerational housing was a normal housing form – extended families lived under the same roof and helped each other with everyday challenges. But family structures have changed since then, and younger families and older households have to face a lot of these challenges alone.

The modern family lifestyle makes it harder for extended families to help each other out in the same way they used to, but the need for people to come together and face these challenges is unchanged. Today’s communities simply aren’t equipped to fulfil this need.

At Ambera, you are not just a homeowner – you are a part of an active community with access to fantastic opportunities. This is true whether you’re a young family who want a quality home at an affordable price in a community of like-minded people, or you’re an active, older person who wants a richer life and a home with community (as your main home, or a second home in the sun).

There are already communities like ours in other parts of the world

Even as far back as 1960, communities were being developed in the USA that revolutionised the way people live. Communities consisting of private homes with access to shared facilities, community spaces, and organised activities, all contributing to create social meeting spaces and encourage the growth of a community. These cities have been a huge success, and millions of people are experiencing a more varied and meaningful life.
