Thoravej 29 is a community and workspace in Copenhagen’s Nordvest district. It brings together 150 members from 30 organizations working in art, politics, social innovation, and sustainability – all united by a shared goal: to explore new ways of creating positive societal change.

The building, designed by Pihlmann Architects, is a leading example of circular architecture. In the transformation of the former industrial space, 95% of the original materials were reused – earning project awards such as the Renovation Prize 2025 and Building of the Year. Thoravej 29’s brand strategy and identity design is developed by Studio C – true to Thoravej 29’s spirit, they designed an open process inviting all community members to join workshops about the brand strategy, tone of voice, and visual identity.

More than just a workplace, Thoravej 29 also serves as a public meeting point. The house includes a café, exhibitions, events, and the future lab, Snart, an open space for anyone interested in shaping the world we want to live in.
