The Collective Paper Factory - Co-Living Space In Long IslandThe Collective  
Paper Factory

An ode to times long before the digital age, The Collective Paper Factory in Long Island City, NY, lies at the crossroads of the Kaufman Arts District and Astoria in the borough of Queens. This is the co-living company’s first space in the United States.

The 100-year-old building was once part of the paper industry, and before that, a radio factory is now housing a co-living concept that welcomes guests to stay one night to 29-day stays.

This old paper plant and warehouse were designed using as much of the original repurposed material as possible. As a result, the foyers and rooms incorporate the space’s original elements, such as polished concrete floors and reclaimed materials.

Details are rounded out with vintage hammered metal doors, exposed pipes that seem to blend well with modern art, and sleek light fixtures that pepper the co-living space.
