Coliving – working, creating, and living in community

Thriving when the odds are stacked against you is an incredible catalyst for change, and for Anton Chernikov, creating co-living spaces allows him and others to slow down, connect authentically, and discover their resourcefulness whilst building something meaningful together.

Anton created House of Transformation, an event space opened during the pandemic, which became a significant source of income. On top of this he also runs Selgars, an eight-acre countryside property with a four-storey millhouse, cottages, and barn that he and his wife operate as a retreat and a co-living space through the winter months.
