In the third phase, CLOUDS is converting into a sustainable project that will be impacting the community and the domain of civil society beyond its physical entity.
A series of services around CLOUDS will be provided to civil society organizations and grouops. The target is to showcase and test different scenarios together with our partners in order to create an alternative business model based on commons’ perspectives and infrastructure co-ownership.

CLOUDS first aim is to provide the infrastructure necessary for co-designing social and cultural activities; an engagement that will enhance the residents’ capacity for self-organisation and sense of belonging, as well as contribute to the alignment of oneself in relation to others’ existence. Additionally, it will connect all motivated groups and individuals into a corporeal social network, acting as an analogue social capacitor. Through the various events generated and documented by the network, CLOUDS will promote motivation among citizens to participate in civic life and formulate through both their presence and their enacted creativity, a common ground in every point where it will be located. By planning informative actions, workshops and announced meetings, the project will bridge the gap between initiatives, communities and citizens.

CLOUDS is an open architecture modular system used to build pop-up constructions that can support a wide variety of cultural actions in the public space. Inspired by core principles of Commoning, Learning, Openness, Urbanism, Design and Structure, CLOUDS facilitates such cultural, artistic, and educational activities as community gatherings participatory workshops, theatrical/dance plays and performances. As such, the system creates a space of collective development and acts as a tool for independent cultural initiatives, community organizations, third places and civic agencies.
