Drawing on interviews with experts from cities including Seoul, Tokyo, Vancouver, Toronto, Copenhagen, Turku and Paris, the book reframes loneliness as a spatial and systemic challenge also shaped by the built environment.

Empowering construction via applied science and circular economy

The Circular Built Environment Network is an industrial research program that aims to revolutionize construction practices by utilizing applied science and circular economy principles. It comprises 15 industrial Ph.D. candidates and four research initiatives bridging the gap between academia and the industry.

Why BLOXHUB

Making our cities sustainable is a complex challenge. We need partnerships to solve it.

A shared space builds trust

The community space in Copenhagen is the beating heart of BLOXHUB. This is where we share knowledge, think innovatively and build trust.

Trust builds communities

When we meet, we build trust – and innovative relationships emerge and become a community. The BLOXHUB community is an ecosystem counting everyone who somehow helps to create better cities worldwide.

Communities build partnerships

We foster the partnerships that are needed to connect people, share knowledge and scale businesses. We do that through innovation programs, activities – and even random meetings by the coffee machine.
