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 book, Solution, documents the effect by showcasing the two projects, Upcycle Studios 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.

THE WELFARE CITY IN TRANSITIONThrough a compilation of texts and images from different voices and decades the book presents key challenges and perspectives of the past, present and future of the Danish welfare city. It provides a critical map for reflection and action when tackling the urban issues of our time. The welfare city as we know it today is facing structural transformations, undermining the ideology of the post-war welfarism. As the welfare city has entered a new phase of market driven development, many of the challenges that the post-war welfare city's architects and decision makers dealt with resemble the present- day crises: financial crisis, migration crisis, democracy crisis, housing crisis, health crisis - and on top of it the major 'newcomer' crises of climate changes and the covid-19 pandemic.
