Innovative Self-Sustaining Village Model Could Be the Future of Semi-Urban Living
An innovative new housing model dubbed ReGen Villages (short for regenerative) has been developed in response to some of the world's most pressing environmental, social and economic issues.

The first project site will be in Almere, the Netherlands, with work starting this year. Â
