🍃 Urban spaces can’t serve people and the planet.

Did you know?

Basecamp Lyngby is redefining sustainable urban living. This Danish innovation recently claimed the prestigious Green Cities Europe Award 2023, setting a new benchmark for eco friendly living.

Picture a world where buildings actively give back to the planet while enhancing the lives of their inhabitants. Basecamp Lyngby is turning that vision into reality.

The big idea:

Basecamp Lyngby demonstrates how buildings can serve both people and the planet.

Here’s what makes it revolutionary:

1. Uniting generations: There’s a community where students, PhDs, and seniors coexist, sharing experiences and building connections that enrich everyone’s lives.

2. Circular facade: The building is constructed with reusable recycled materials, reducing waste while maximising resource efficiency.

3. High level of energy efficiency: A smart ventilation system captures 90% of energy from outgoing air to heat fresh air, significantly lowering energy use.

4. Multipurpose roof. Besides encouraging biodiversity, the green roof provides a rainwater buffer, purifies the air, reduces the ambient temperature, regulates the indoor temperature and saves energy. 

This innovation is the perfect example of how cities can evolve into sustainable ecosystems that inspire and connect their residents.

Tip of the week:

What can we learn from Basecamp Lyngby? 

We can take inspiration from its design to incorporate sustainability into our homes, communities, and businesses:

1. Adopt circular thinking: Use recycled or sustainable materials for home renovations and projects.

2. Prioritise energy efficiency: Consider smart heating or ventilation systems that reduce energy use while maintaining comfort.

3. Conserve water: Install rainwater harvesting systems or low flow fixtures to save water and reduce strain on local infrastructure.

4. Build a community: Build relationships with neighbours to create a more supportive and collaborative living environment.

5. Create attractive buildings that support life: Here, the roof and surroundings inspire and invite to activities and to spend time outdoors. How could your building support the lives of those using it?

Basecamp Lyngby shows that innovation and sustainability can be seamlessly intertwined to create spaces that benefit both people and the environment.
