How can we reduce the climate impact of new construction to just 50kg CO2/m²?

    This is the crucial question that drives the #Uselesstuff think tank. We bring together leading experts, architects, researchers, contractors and property owners to co-create groundbreaking solutions for a more sustainable construction industry.

    What is the #uselesstuff think tank?

    Tankesmedjan #uselesstuff is an innovation project focused on drastically reducing the carbon footprint of new buildings. The project is divided into four teams, spread across Sweden, and led by dedicated Champions:

    • East (Stockholm): Daniel Lauri

    • West (Gothenburg/London): Kayin Dawoodi & Guayente Minchot Ballarin

    • Centre (Borlänge): Elias Baena

    • South (Malmö): Martin Fröderberg

    These teams are working together to explore new methods, materials and processes to achieve the goal of a significantly reduced climate impact.
