Inside one London founder house rewriting the founder-house rules

Lift House, a new East London founder house, blends co-living and coworking for startup teams.

Its model rejects Silicon Valley-style grind culture in favor of shared meals, journaling, and healthier routines.

Founded by young entrepreneurs including Rowan and Zahraa Aldean, it reflects London’s evolving startup identity.

The launch comes as AI startup activity and investment in London continue to accelerate.
