HusCompagniet
Housing innovation has the greatest impact when it reaches everyday homes.
Through a strategic partnership with VELUX, HusCompagniet is exploring how Living Places knowledge can contribute to future housing developments with the ambition of making healthier and more sustainable homes accessible to more people.
As Denmark's leading provider of single-family homes, HusCompagniet brings a perspective that is unique within the Living Places Network: how proven ideas can be applied within homes designed for everyday life and delivered at scale.
The partnership focuses on understanding how knowledge developed through Living Places can contribute to future homes across a market that reaches thousands of homeowners.
From Knowledge to Action
Creating better housing depends on the decisions made long before construction begins.
Material selection, design optimisation, indoor climate and carbon reduction all influence how a home performs over time.
Through the partnership, HusCompagniet gains access to Living Places knowledge and experience across these areas. The collaboration provides an opportunity to explore how these considerations can work together within homes designed for real-world delivery and long-term use.
The goal is not to develop entirely new solutions. It is to apply existing knowledge more effectively.
Building on Experience
Sustainability has been part of HusCompagniet's strategy since 2019.
The company has worked closely with suppliers, collected data across its operations and explored opportunities to reduce emissions throughout the building process.
The partnership builds on this foundation by introducing new insights and perspectives from the Living Places Network. By combining practical homebuilding experience with shared knowledge, HusCompagniet aims to strengthen future housing projects and support continued progress towards lower-impact construction.
“Collaboration and knowledge-sharing are crucial to driving the development of future buildings in a more sustainable direction.”
Creating Homes for the Future
Since 1972, HusCompagniet has delivered more than 28,500 homes across Denmark.
This experience provides a valuable opportunity to explore how Living Places principles can contribute to housing at scale.
The significance of the partnership lies in its potential reach. Through one of Denmark's largest homebuilders, ideas developed through Living Places can be tested, refined and applied within homes built for future generations.
The partnership demonstrates how collaboration between industry leaders can help accelerate the transition towards housing that combines strong indoor environments, lower environmental impact and high quality for residents.
