I've been intrigued by the concept of a co-living space combined with a hacker-space/co-working space (something similar to a boarding house with attached hacker/maker space) but it does sound like you would definitely have to have a hard separation between the "living" space and the "working" space. I wonder if its something that could feasibly be organized or if hackerspaces should just stay hackerspaces.
