Air quality is a highly topical issue for a good reason: The air we breathe is foundational for our health. We all know that poor air quality is detrimental to human welfare and a very costly burden for a society’s health system, but to change the status quo takes political will. In this seminar, we will look closely at solutions that can make our cities healthier for all, improve the air quality and lower the pollution.

Heat networks are the most energy efficient way of heating houses as well as being an environmentally very friendly solution and hence future-proof. In this seminar, we’ll focus on practical ways of reaching low or preferably zero carbon by connecting to heat networks (district heating). We’ll look at how district heating can help social landlords deliver energy efficient homes, tackle fuel poverty, reduce carbon emissions and improve energy security, and examples from Danish cities and London will be presented.

HOW TO RUN A PROFITABLE PRACTICETHE FOUNDATION FOR VISIONARY DESIGN
Architects create great architecture but do they make money? Successful firms recog-nize that in order to have the freedom to create great architecture, the practice needs to be run as a healthy business.In this regard, AutoPilot is the industry standard for project management software in Denmark because of its market share of over 50% and its proven track record: In 2016 the industry of the Architects in Denmark faced an increase in profit of DKK 100 Million com-pared to 2015.

HYGGE AND ARCHITECTURETHE HUMAN ELEMENT IN ARCITECTURE
The Danish word for comfortable living is gaining attention around the world as de-signers and architects look for ways to foster wellness in buildings. The interest in the Danish cultural traditions of hygge can help us looking inward at human culture and what makes us feel at home. At the opening recep-tion of The Liveable City, Marie Hesseldahl Larsen will talk about how the philosophy of hygge can be incorporated into the design and architecture of buildings as an important part of creating a more liveable atmosphere.
