  1. 1. Crowdability of Urban Space. : Ordinary rhythms of clustering and declustering and their architectural prerequisites

    Author : Sahar Alrabadi; Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; Crowdability; Urban design; Public Space; socio-materiality; public life; everyday life; social interaction; proxemics; Rhythm; Rhythm analysis; Affordance; Focused ethnography; Ethnography; visual ethnography; Architecture; crowds; collective space; ;

    Abstract : In the wake of densification and urbanisation, crowding has become an increasingly important issue for social sustainability in cities. This also affects urban design and the ways public spaces stimulate different kinds of crowding and clustering. READ MORE

  2. 2. Solarscape: The power of humanity in designing solar imaginaries, entangled worlds, and critical sustainable futures

    Author : Suzanna Törnroth; Åsa Wikberg-Nilsson; Andrea Luciani; Cindy Kohtala; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; design; architecture; solar energy; sustainability; socio-technical transition; Design; Design;

    Abstract : Solarscape is a thesis on the phenomenology of the Solar – an experiential, relational, and critical approach to how humans and humanity world-with solar energy in its different forms and manifestations. Using solar panels as a central artefact of concern, I explore surrounding human and non-human relationships through situated individual and collaborative design practices: workshops, interviews, (auto)ethnography, to name a few.

  3. 3. Uncommon Ground : Urban Form and Social Territory

    Author : Eva Minoura; Daniel Koch; Meta Berghauser Pont; Alexander Ståhle; Stephen Marshall; KTH; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; territoriality; interface; social sustainability; morphology; commons; stewardship; open space; yards; spatial analysis; Architecture; Arkitektur;

    Abstract : Implicit in any urban design is a negotiation between public and private interests. Such a negotiation is articulated and made legible in the facades, fences and even more subtle edges separating this from that. A complex variety of spatial situations are produced depending on how spaces are framed, how interfaces are materialized. READ MORE

  4. 4. Transcalar Design : biological principles in architecture through computational design and additive fabrication

    Author : Ana Goidea; Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; architecture; additive manufacturing 3D printing ; additive manufacturing; biotechnology; Biofabrication; biodesign; generative design;

    Abstract : Architecture is currently facing a period of transformational change which is driven by an increasing awareness of sustainability imperatives combined with technological advancements in the form of digitalisation of design and fabrication processes. These issues both introduce new layers of complexity and necessitate strategies to navigate them. READ MORE
