Support House Europe! to make renovation the new norm – sign before 31 January

Collage of tiny photos and pictures in yellow and black. Illustration.

The policy lab House Europe! wants to create incentives that make renovation over demolition the new norm. This will boost the renovation market and give new value to what is already there. The goal is to preserve homes and communities, ensure a fairer and more local building industry, save energy and resources, and preserve our memories and stories.

Sign, spread and follow. With one million signatures, the proposal will reach the European Parliament and help shift current laws and practices to protect affordable housing and the climate.

The Department of Architecture and the Built Environment at LTH stands behind this initiative, in line with the perspectives and goals of both research and teaching at the school.

If you want to find out more, do not hesitate to reach out to Henrik Almquist or read more at the House of Europe website

Sign today, the campaign finishes on the last of Januari. Let’s fix it!
