Solution

By Anders Lendager and Esben Pedersen

Lendager Group is a trail blazer in the green revolution transforming the building industry.

Is it sustainable to reuse building elements from existing houses in new construction projects? Is there a real effect of building in wood? And is there enough waste at all if everyone builds with upcycled materials? The short answer is yes. In just over 380 pages the new book, Solution, documents the effect by showcasing the two projects, Upcycle Studions and Resource Rows. With extensive use of recycled and upcycled materials, Lendager's projects, Upcycle Studios and the Resource Rows, have already garnered awards and publicity as lighthouses in circular construction. With the sweeping data from LCA and LCC analyzes, the release now proves that there is a real sustainable effect to be gained when building circular.

Lendager Group received the Constructor Award for being one of the construction industry's frontrunners in sustainable construction, reuse and recycling of building materials. The book is a thorough documentation of the architects' work to move the construction industry in a more climate-friendly direction. Through photos, interviews and essays, the authors document that it is possible to make architecture of the highest quality that is sustainable.
