Disneyjust announceda Modern projection called Storyliving by Disney , “ vibrant new vicinity that are instill with theCompany ’s special brand of magic . ” It aim to replicate the experience of go to a Disney hangout , but instead of visiting , you ’d be living there permanently . “ These original - planned communities are intended to cheer occupant to nurture new friendship , pursue their interests and write the next exciting chapter in their lives — all while enjoying the attention to detail , unique amenities and extra touch sensation that are Disney hallmarks,”the prescribed Disney announcement take .
The first Storyliving location is called Cotino and will be in Rancho Mirage , California , site near Palm Springs .

The PR line make it seem like hoi polloi who prefer to live in a Storyliving fix will be getting a 24/7/365 permanent Disney experience . And that ’s for sure the vibe you get from all of the prescribed channels , such as this extensive YouTube telecasting .
As someonewho considers themselves a Disney fan , I will include , lease the company treat your life for a few mean solar day can be very fun and relaxing . A few rides , secure food , live amusement , it ’s great . But … all the clock time , every day ? I do n’t give care how big of a Disney fan you are , that just seems enormously consuming . An all - the - prison term PG - rated life when it ’s nice to get a little PG-13 or R on occasion .
The idea has both worth puzzle out , and not , in the past . Disney undertake a similar but less compact theme in 1996 with the town of Celebration , Florida . It still exists but the company no longer have it . It also still owns a veryhigh - end community yell Golden Oakin Florida , though from what we can tell it ’s not as all - immersive as these Storyliving communities aim to be . And all of those are urge on by Walt Disney ’s original thought for EPCOT which bear for “ Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow . ” The idea became the foundation for the theme park of the same name and , with the tidings of Storyliving , seems to still be part of the troupe ’s intake today .
