This document proposes a zero-energy housing complex in Copenhagen, Denmark. The project aims to design sustainable housing that achieves zero energy usage while also meeting aesthetic and functional requirements. The vision is to encourage healthy lifestyles and harmony with nature. Key parameters include compact design with 3-story buildings, consideration of the site's climate and connection to the city and suburbs, and strategies like solar energy and cultural/social diversity.
