Abstract
In this last chapter, the conclusions of all the previous reasoning are presented. Once described the phenomenon, contextualized in the broader panorama of contemporary participation and emphasized the role of design, the discussion is brought back to a philosophical and sociological dimension. The chapter concludes confirming the main thesis and the dream expressed in the manuscript: influencing urban sustainable practices and promoting the social revitalization of territories, co-housing can help in rewriting the lost alliance between humankind and the environment.
