Contact usWho we are
Rooted in an architectural practice with over 50 years of heritage.
i Live Group is the developing and operating company behind Germany's leading portfolio of living and hospitality brands: i Live (student and urban micro living), Rioca (apartment hotel) and We Live (co-living). Founded in 2011, the Group manages the full value chain from development and construction to brand, operations and asset management.
Innovation is not a project at i Live, it is the way we work. We develop, build, invest and operate ourselves, which means every building teaches us something that makes the next one better.
That has produced things that did not exist before. A modular apartment concept that shortens build time and makes quality plannable. An in-house community app that brings leasing, neighbourhood and service together. Beehives and chickens on the roofs, because biodiversity does not end with a certificate. And our own generations study, because we wanted to know what young people actually need instead of guessing.
The most important innovation is not technical. i Live is the first PBSA company with a cultural core built into operations. Friendship is not a marketing promise here, it is our answer to something the WHO treats as a public health concern.

Irreplicable, scalable, institutional-grade
Join the movement →The economics of friendship
Others rent square metres. We build friendship, by design, end to end. Friends stay longer. Friends recommend. Friends treat their home with care.
Friendship turns a building into an asset that compounds in value. That is what makes us different, and what makes us lead the market.
i Live turns friendship into real value.
A shareholder resolution from 2022 mandates DGNB Gold certification for every i Live Group development from that date onward. Not a target. A binding commitment already in execution. DGNB Gold is the second-highest designation of the German Sustainable Building Council.
Key criteria achieved Urban Living Tempelhof Berlin (232 units, operational since Feb 2023)
The full ESG picture
DGNB Gold is one part of how we build. The friendship concept, the Stengel Blockmodul and the Help Alliance complete the picture.
