" The monitoring and thorough assessment of every product and process has been crucial to reach the results that we are able to present with this project . The fact that we have been able to reach these record results with Living Places Copenhagen is proof that we don ’ t have to wait for future technologies to build more sustainable buildings . The materials , solutions , and knowledge are already here - we just need to enable and scale them . I hope that we can inspire the building industry to follow ," says Lone Feifer , Director of Sustainable Building at the VELUX Group .
