Why Founders Coliving
Built to get shit done

We don't do everything for you, but the house runs smoothly from day one. We take you to the best restaurants and networking events and introduce you to our network, so you get a strong start in Lisbon.

Sunlight
More sun, better output
We calculated the sun for this building, minute by minute, on the longest and the shortest day of the year, so you don't have to guess where the light lands. Daylight keeps your energy up and your head sharp.
Mornings
Room A, Room B and the living room get the morning sun. In summer it lasts until about 12:30.
Evenings
Room C and Room D get the sun from about 3 pm until sunset, all year.
Winter
The low sun reaches 3 to 4 metres into the lounge, which has sun all day.
Cold plunge
We're adding a cold plunge to the house. Morning sun, a cold dip, then deep work.

- Fibre internet
Not included: the chef, who comes twice a week for meal prep if you want it.
How do you choose housemates?
We interview every applicant. We'd rather keep a room empty than fill it with the wrong person, so everyone in the house knows their housemates are vetted and a good match.
How much is rent, and what's included?
€1,000 a month, all inclusive. That covers your furnished room, utilities, fibre internet and a weekly cleaner. The chef is not included.
What about food?
A chef comes twice a week for meal prep and learns your dietary preferences and macro goals. It's optional and paid separately.
Is the room furnished?
Yes. Move in, unpack and start shipping.
Who do I share a bathroom with?
Room A and Room D have their own bathroom. Room B and Room C share one bathroom between the two of them.
Is there air conditioning?
Yes, new air conditioning in every room.
Is there a gym?
A gym and sauna are right across the street.
How many people live in the house?
Four founders, one in each room, including Arvin and Thomas.
When can I move in?
Apply, and we'll set up an interview and agree on the move-in date with you.
By interview only
We'd love to meet you
Tell us who you are and what you're building. We interview every applicant and would rather keep a room empty than fill it with the wrong person, so everyone in the house is vetted and shares the same drive. Get in, and you're not renting a room. You're joining the house.
