Introduction
Marthagården is one of Denmark’s most sustainable kindergartens! The kindergarten is an addition to and renovation of the Danish Deaconess Foundation’s kindergarten in Frederiksberg, Copenhagen. The integrated kindergarten and crèche produces energy, grows organic food, recycles water and food waste, and sorts waste.
The kindergarten is built from healthy and environmentally sounds materials and creates the architectural surroundings for a spacious everyday life where many experiences and practical tasks take place. That Marthagården is a project for children has been very crucial for our way of working with the project, and “sustainability for children” has therefore been the main focus for the project.
