Under the banner "Better Places - Greater Impact - Stronger Business", MIPIM 2023 will take place from 13-16 March in Cannes. CEO Lars Kragh and Peter Nielsen, director of KHR's developer consultancy, are attending and would like to both inspire and be inspired. Write or call us to make an appointment in the calendar.
Last week, KHR partner Janina Zerbe was invited to speak at a professional conference in Vienna with the current theme "Sustainability in Educational Construction".
The reason for the invitation was KHR's strong focus on sustainability in a large new school that is being built in Nuuk.
Participants were impressed by the high level of user involvement and focus on social sustainability that characterises the project.
The symbolic start of construction of the school "Am Breiten Luch" took place on Wednesday with the participation of a number of key figures. KHR, together with its German partner, Renner Architekten, has designed the school, which will open its doors to 725 pupils at secondary school level in the summer of 2025. At the same time, the school will also serve as a landmark and a focal point for the local community, thus helping to uplift the entire neighbourhood.
On Wednesday morning, coffee, croissants and good company set the scene for an interesting morning meeting at KHR Architecture. The focal point of the meeting was the delegated developer model, which was first dissected legally and then followed up by an architectural look at a concrete general-private housing project.
At KHR, we're lucky to have an expert in social sustainability we can turn to for advice. Nevertheless, it is always good to have an external view on our role and how we can best meet our clients' needs, for example with regard to ESG objectives and EU taxonomy. We asked ChatGPT for advice, and the chatbot offers interesting answers and concrete examples of social sustainability in architecture. Judge for yourself.
