“Upcycled Housing” in Copenhagen. This is Resource Rows by builder NREP and architect Lendager. The bricks were cut into 1x1 metre panels, mostly from the demo of the nearby Carlsberg brewery buildings, and then reassembled to create the facade of the new housing.

Why panels? In older buildings, the mortar between the bricks is often stronger than the actual brick, making it difficult to separate the individual bricks from the mortar. So the builder cut and panelized the old facade.
