The Resource Rows is the first housing development in the world made of upcycled brick modules; a new approach to implementing the circular economy in architecture and design.

The jury says

In this project, Lendager Group takes on the major challenge of reusing building materials in an ambitious attempt at turning construction waste into a resource in the circular economy. The visionary project reuses building facades as modules in new buildings. That is innovative, and in addition to the sustainability benefit it also adds a historical element to new urban districts and thus provides a framing context for new residents.
