The opening of Anna to the public for the final days of the Prototyp Göteborg festival was a success, as we’ve had the occasion to host around 60 people along the three afternoons the house was opened. It has also been the opportunity to gather the contacts of persons interested in the project and its coming developments (about 40 emails collected). These may be the future community we hope to build around the project.

Thanks to the beautiful work done by Karin, a young interior designer appointed by Egnahems Fabriken, the house is almost fully furnished. Everything is second-hand and sourced through the Red Cross whom Karin partnered with. The homy feeling was definitely there and very much helps to appreciate the quality of the different spaces. The overall feedback on Anna is very positive, thank you all for the good work.

The building process starts for the pilot project of housing for people in exile in Gothenburg, As part of the WP5 coordinated by Quatorze, we are proud and happy to work with Egnahems Fabriken in the Ringön neighbourhood where the existing employment opportunities may allow for real social inclusion leads for the future beneficiaries. For now, let's focus on the building brigades and construction process !
