The Community of Wellness is a future co-housing design focus on the wellness of residence, encouraging body movement and sensation experience. From bodily awareness, people would obtain ultimate self-cognition, which is one of the goals for Auroville as a future international community.

In the community, every unit is encompassed by service walls that contain murphy bed, cabinet, bathroom and coffee bar as well as moveable curtain walls. The walls could slide in order to connect units (and public area) for large flexible space. Aligned with units on both side are the two pathways that go through the community: the community routine and the public ramp. The community routine constitute five vessels of sensations, and each of them commits to a public program for a specific sensation: vision (light meditation), hearing (music performance), smell (ramp garden), touch (exercise room), and taste (community cafe).

未来社区是位于印度的健康导向型集合住宅，意在激活居住者的身体活动和感觉体验，使人们同时达到获得真正的自我认知。视频模拟了在社区内部各空间的环绕体验，以及外部和鸟瞰的虚拟视角。在社区中，每个居住/公共单元都被服务墙所环绕和支撑，服务墙包含折叠床、橱柜、浴室、咖啡吧以及可移动的幕墙。幕墙可以滑动以连接单元与单元或公共区域，以获得较大的灵活空间。社区中有两条公共路径：社区活动空间和公共坡道。社区活动空间的五种公共服务功能联系着五种感官，分别为视觉（冥想）、听觉（音乐表演）、气味（坡道花园）、触摸（运动中心）和味觉（咖啡馆）。
