of Circle House can be found in Copenhagen, giving an idea of what the future circular lighthouse project will look like.

About Circle House
  • A housing project with 60 social housing apartments with shared areas in Lisbjerg, near Aarhus.
  • The world’s first social housing project built according to circular principles. This means that the building can be taken apart again and the aim is that 90% of the materials being used for the buildings can be reused without losing significant value.
  • The construction was put out to tender and is being built according to market conditions.
  • Circle House is a scalable lighthouse project for circular construction, which develops and shares knowledge about circular construction across the sector.
  • The project has had support from Realdania and the Ministry of Environment’s development and demonstration programme (MUDP).
