Pension Almonde

Pension Almonde was a meeting ground, home and studio space for urban nomads. A deserted social housing complex was transformed into a temporary locus for cultural production and short-term living. It took place in 2019 and 2020 in the Zoho area in Rotterdam-North. Pension Almonde was organized by the organization City in the Making, the key principles of which are: “to take infrastructure out of the market and secure it against speculation; make it livable and affordable; through collective ownership; with commons free of rent; economically, socially and ecologically sustainable; self-organized; through a self-obtained investment fund; brutally and on our own”.
