How do we want to live, work, and love together in the future? The AGENCY poses the question of new typologies for new forms of coexistence. Santa Croce/Spin Time, a 10-story squatted former administration building in Rome, serves as a case study. The multiple uses of Spin Time are remarkable. In addition to housing for 450 people from 27 nations, it offers more than 30 different social and cultural infrastructures such as a theater, a carpentry workshop, a restaurant, a printing workshop, a museum, a youth club, a learning workshop, the headquarters of the well-known youth magazine Scomodo and more. Protagonists from Spin Time will join a representatives of a co-housing project in Vienna to discuss possible future typologies in which the coexistence of many could be the principle that underlies all considerations. Which structures support such coexistence? What spaces, what legal means, and what policies are needed? What do the Sargfabrik in Vienna and Spin Time have in common, and what distinguishes them?
