Colina Noua is a new ecovillage located just 20 minutes north of Cluj, Romania. It aims to rethink what everyday life can look like for Romanians. The country has faced underinvestment in education, infrastructure, and public services, but now with Cluj branding itself as Eastern Europe’s tech hub, the city is seeing steady population growth. Colina Noua was designed with a focus on higher-density housing, which helps preserve more land for farming, green space, and recreation.
