2009年，唐冠华开始构想自给自足的可持续生活方式，怀着对这种生活的憧憬，他撰写了一篇题为《家园》的文章，设想如何建立一个拥有教育、医疗、养老福利等诸多保障的自给自足的生活社区。
2011年，唐冠华离开青岛，关闭了设计公司。在青岛崂山的一栋花岗岩建筑里，以及森林里一位朋友的住处，他和妻子以自身为实验材料，建造了中国自己的“充足实验室”，逐步发现并解决建筑、能源、食品和生活必需品等问题，并记录下来与大家分享。
在此期间，他的工作和生活方式引起了众多媒体的关注，包括中央电视台、英国广播公司、《纽约时报》、《明镜周刊》、《城市杂志》、新华社、湖南卫视、日本NHK电视台、香港电视台等等。
自2009年起，该机构运营着中国生态村（共识社区）信息中心。http://center.anotherland.org
2015年，他发起了“南方生活”共识社区实验。作为一项共识社区实验，“南方生活”汇聚了来自世界各地的社会可能性探索者，旨在探索中国大陆一种基于共同社会使命或生活方式的社区模式，打破地域、特权、政策、景观、经济、教育背景等界限。该实验计划至少用20年时间来凝聚共识，打造可持续发展的社区。我们欢迎拥有不同生活理念的人士前来开展生活实验。所有集体关系和公共事务均由常住居民共同参与。我们也希望居民能够独立生活，拥有一定的社会责任感，并规划长期的邻里伙伴。
