The five pillars of cOMmon

Spider web Pillars

01

Living in connection

We build ecosystems where relationships come first, between people and land, between communities, and between actions and their ripple effects.
Connection takes precedence over efficiency.

Care is not a side effect, it’s the foundation.

02

Care for people and planet

We choose regeneration as the standard, from soil to community, from rhythm to structure.
What we create should nourish, not deplete.
We take responsibility for the visible and the invisible.

03

Time = Value

Time, attention, presence and care are as valuable as money.
Through Slicing Pie, we acknowledge these contributions, even when not directly financial.
We are building an economy centered on reciprocity.

04

Circular, shared economy

Value circulates through the network.
What you receive, you pass on. What you share, returns.
We don’t extract or privatize. We contribute, multiply, and redistribute.

05

Collective Ownership

What we build, we co-own.
There is no central control or individual profit logic.
Ownership grows from engagement, made visible through slices, tokens and seeds.
These pillars are not just philosophy. They come to life in how we collaborate, share land, recognize value and make decisions.
