A major new exhibition has opened in the gallery of the Royal Danish Academy on Philip de Langes Allé on Holmen.

Planetary Boundaries presents here 25 research projects that have looked at new materials or at new approaches to design and manufacturing and at changes in our building methods and planning policies that could control our demands for energy and reduce global emissions of CO2 and pollutants from mining extraction and from large-scale agricultural and industrial processes ... processes that have had such a detrimental impact on our rivers and seas and our atmosphere.

note:
From 2026 the Academy will offer a postgraduate (masters) course on Planetary Boundaries that will focus on large-scale, urban development, urban spaces and landscape.

“For quite some time, the Royal Danish Academy has focused on exploring new ways to reduce carbon emissions in building projects, to refurbish and restore buildings rather than build new ones, and to create designs that last. The focal point of the Planetary Boundaries – Rethinking Architecture and Design exhibition is to perceive the world from a fresh perspective, seeking an approach to architecture and design disciplines that revolves around planetary well-being and the state of the global environment.”
