2030 NOW at BLOX

Through the period of the C40 Summit of World Mayors in Copenhagen in October 2019, Life Exhibitions have shown photographs and graphics from their book 2030 NOW in an outdoor exhibition on Bryghuspladsen - the square at the front of BLOX - the Danish Design Center and the Danish Architecture Center.

What is clear in this large space is the power of the images by the photographer Yann Arthus- Bertand and the importance of the strong graphics with the use of distinct colours for each of the UN goals for sustainability.

Reinventing Cities

 

This exhibition was organised as part of the C40 World Mayors Summit in Copenhagen in October and shows the winning designs in a global competition for carbon-neutral and resilient urban regeneration.

“14 cities have identified together 31 under-utilised spaces to redevelop, including several empty plots of various sizes and abandoned buildings, historical mansions, underused markets, a former airport site, car parks to transform, and an abandoned incinerator and landfill.”

Through this competition, C40 and the participating cities invited architects, developers, environmentalists, neighbourhood groups, innovators and artists to build creative teams and to compete for the opportunity to transform these sites into new beacons of sustainability and resiliency with innovative climate solutions that combined noteworthy architecture and local community benefits.

  

Reinventing Cities continues until 15 November
