VeloHUB receives German Sustainability Award for parking space vision
The VeloHUB by the manufacturer Designit Germany has won the German Sustainability Award (DNP) Design in the category of Visions. The festive live award ceremony took place on December 2 at the Hotel Maritim in Düsseldorf. The DNP Design honors pioneering design solutions that help to address the major challenges of society and achieve the United Nations' sustainability goals. A mission the German Sustainability Award Foundation e.V. also sees realized in the VeloHUB initiative.
"Climate change and the associated climate goals require a rethinking in the use of urban space. VeloHUB has the potential to accelerate this transformation," explains the jury their decision.
VeloHUB initiator Danusch Mahmoudi, who is also the driving force behind VeloHUB, expressed great delight. He stated that the "co-creative result of many people and partners" who were engaged in the initiative was being honored, and thus the award belongs to all involved. Mahmoudi referenced citizen mobility, UnternehmerTUM, WSM – Walter Solbach Metallbau GmbH, and the citizens who contributed their ideas.
"More than ever, we feel spurred on to bring this vision to product maturity and thus actively shape the mobility transition," promised Mahmoudi.
VeloHUB is a scalable and configurable module system that transforms parking spaces into flexible hubs for sustainable mobility, social interaction, green community areas, and micro-business. The concept integrates the three pillars of sustainability: ecology, social aspects, and economy. In doing so, the concept promotes sustainable, future-oriented actions and offers a win-win situation for all users, the manufacturer advertises.
