As the relevance of energy transition grows at the EU level, environmentally sustainable architecture plays a key role in reducing carbon emissions from buildings and increasing awareness about sustainability. Innovations in the architecture field are not only about creating visually appealing but also community-centered environments for their users.
The main objective of this workshop is to discuss the role of architects as facilitators of the energy transition with the question: 'How does environmentally sustainable architecture play a key role in reducing carbon emissions from buildings and increasing awareness?'
The event is hosted by ProjectZero, the Danish demonstration leader of ARV and the Architects’ Council of Europe within the EU-funded project ARV, and will as well include a site visit to the Dept. 75 building and the Sønderborg Harbour and presentation of the newer zero energy buildings along the harbour by Jan Petersen, BMC Foundations.
Join this awareness-raising event in Sønderborg to discover a wide range of replicable solutions for designing sustainable buildings, in the context of the Sønderborg Climate Positive Circular Community.
The workshop will be held in Danish.
