Uncommon Ground Village Ordinary guys. Uncommon ground.

A village where we can be ourselves.

Gay men, living openly, naked and at ease.

An invitation

I’m bringing people together to create a gay naturist village where we can make our homes, welcome friends and share everyday life—with gardens, a lively common house and space to retreat when we want it.

We’re forming the community now. No location or property has been chosen, and there’s no price or move-in date yet. Here’s what we do know, and you can help shape what comes next.

Or spend a day here first

Imagine making a life here.

Not a great weekend: an ordinary day. Keep scrolling, and the sun will keep the time.

These pictures imagine a day in the village we’d love to create. The place, buildings and way of living are still ours to work out together.

in the morning

Breakfast with friends

You could come down for breakfast and find friends around the table, spend the morning working or out in the garden, and make plans for dinner without having to arrange a visit weeks ahead. Some days you might want a house full of company. On others, you could close your door and have a quiet evening to yourself.

Tap anywhere in the soil to plant something.

A morning in the garden

Spend the morning working, or out in the garden with your hands in the soil. The village can grow some of its own food, care for the land around it and give you room to make and repair things. It can start small and grow as everyone learns what the land supports and what people love to do.

in the afternoon

The heat of the day

The land is a big part of the appeal for me. I’d love to be able to step outside naked and enjoy a garden, take a longer walk, or find a shady spot to sit with someone. Choosing the setting and designing for its seasons will matter as much as choosing the buildings.

Run your finger or mouse through the water.

A pool, a pond or a hose in the garden? That’s still to decide. One of our survey questions asks what you’d wear at 100°F.

in the afternoon

A door you can close

Homes here can take different shapes. Maybe yours is a small house with its own kitchen. Maybe it’s a private bedroom in a household that shares more of its days.

Either way, there’s space to retreat when you want it, and friends close enough for an unplanned conversation.

See the village come to life

A short story in pictures: how it could begin, how it could grow, and a day there from your own front door.

Keep scrolling and it builds itself.

Be yourself. Let others be themselves.

I want this to be a place where we feel at ease with our bodies and our sexuality, and don’t have to hide or apologize for our relationships and consensual lives. There should be room for affection and intimacy, with respect for each person’s privacy and boundaries. Being naked isn’t an invitation to touch, sex or photographs, and saying no should never make someone feel less welcome.

in the evening

Dinner, without planning it weeks ahead

Wander over for dinner without arranging a visit weeks ahead. Meals are something residents can shape together: a shared food program, paid cooking on some days, or a more informal open table. Bring your own food, save a plate for later or eat at home, without it ever becoming a source of tension.

What’s on the table?

Tap a dish to see what’s on the table.

Just for fun. It stays on this screen and isn’t saved or sent.

A postcard from a Tuesday that hasn’t happened yet

Pick up to four things you’d love to do on an ordinary Tuesday here, and the postcard will write itself.

What would your Tuesday hold?

Your choices stay on this page. They aren’t saved or sent.

Want that Tuesday?

Keep exploring

Each part of the village has its own hour of the day. Pick one, and the sun will take you there.

Leave a light on.

Leave your email and we’ll keep you posted as the idea develops. Afterward, there’s an optional survey where you can tell us more about what you’d want from a place like this.

Your light comes on only when your signup has been received.

Welcome home.

There’s a seat at the table and a light by the door, whenever you’re ready.

I’m interested

Much love!
