Circular construction in BlueCity: from swimming pool to model city

Moreover, in circular construction, BlueCity goes beyond circular; the construction team also uses principles from the blue economy. Besides saving a dilapidated building from demolition, that combination yields environmental gains in several areas.

First, of course, in working with recycled materials. These are also sourced locally, so there is also an environmental benefit in transport. In addition, the workspaces take full advantage of the climatic characteristics of the building, which keeps the addition of installations to a minimum. Finally, several in-house entrepreneurs are helping with the interior design, such as recycling design platform Harvest Map. And local labor is used, particularly local artisans. This also drives the circular economy in real estate.
