REC.ON Spain is an Ecovillage and Coliving Residency located in the picturesque village of La Mata Bolaimi, with just 10 houses, nestled in the Sierra Maria-Los Vélez mountains of Andalusia. Founded in 2019 by Bart and Paulina Bielecki, it serves as a pioneering model for revitalizing the over 100-year-old buildings of a former goat farm.

REC.ON Spain is rooted in the values of art, ecology, and conscious community, offering a creative space for artists, writers, digital nomads, and travelers. Whether you’re healing from burnout, escaping the rat race, or pursuing a passion project, this ecovillage provides a space to create, reset, reconnect with nature, embrace simplicity and serenity.

Preserving the Rural Heritage of Andalusia

An artist residency and creative work space located in the REC.ON ecovillage, in the heart of the Andalusian mountains. We welcome artists, writers and cultural creatives looking for a peaceful and inspiring place to work. The residents have access to coliving apartment, art and design galleries with workshop facilities and outdoor creative work areas. Stays range from 4 weeks to 3 months.

 

The space at REC.ON is designed for digital nomads, travelers, people experiencing burnout and those looking for inspiration and an entry into slow life. We offer coliving rooms, a Green Spot for RVs and coworking spaces for remote work. You can connect with a community of people with similar values. There are opportunities for hiking, meditation or taking part in creative workshops.
REC.ON Gallery is the first art gallery in a rural area in Spain, dedicated to exhibiting and selling artwork created from recycled materials. The exhibition space is located in a restored century-old goat farm building and surrounding grounds, showcasing installations and wearable art. The gallery also supports local artists, offering their works for purchase on site.

Since 2019, the project, dedicated to preserving the cultural heritage of Andalusian rural areas, has been a pioneering example of rural revitalization. It focuses on the renovation of over 100-year-old buildings—both residential homes and former agricultural structures—on a historic goat farm in the village of Bolaimi, Andalusia. The restored spaces have been adapted for residential and workshop use in line with the principles of sustainable design and recycling, while work on additional spaces is still ongoing
