The Living Places Living Experience

As the Living Places experiment continued, we pushed the dialogue on sustainability in the building industry even further to look beyond the impact of buildings on the planet and investigate the human aspects of architecture. For without people, a house is not a home. Living Places Living has brought the experiment full circle, demonstrating the impact of the Living Places concept through the human experience of healthy homes.

Living Places Copenhagen came to life over the summer with a range guests, including industry professionals, journalists and influencers, who moved in and broadcasted their stay to help us find out what it’s really like to live in homes with an ultra-low carbon footprint and a first-class indoor climate. 

While the homes were occupied, we evaluated indoor climate data collected by our monitoring systems alongside feedback from guests to discover what they thought and how they felt about their experience. By integrating indoor climate data with everyday experiences, we continued the experimental nature of Living Places, uncovering valuable human insights into how homes can benefit people’s physical and mental wellbeing.
