2. 1. Designing with Urban Sound : Exploring methods for qualitative sound analysis of the built environment

   Author : Nina Hällgren; Katja Grillner; Björn Hellström; Gunnar Sandin; KTH; []
   Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Architectue; urban sound design; urban sound planning; soundscape; urban planning; artistic research; architectural research;

   Abstract : The licentiate thesis Designing with Urban Sound explores the constitution and qualitative characteristics of urban sonic space from a design-oriented and practice-based perspective. The act of lifting forth and illuminating the interaction between architecture, the creation of sound and a sonic experience aims to examine and develop useful tools and methods for the representation, communication and analysis of the exterior sonic environment in complex architectural spaces.

   Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Writing architecture; Dissidence; performative writing; experimental writing; artistic research; critical fiction; minor politics; dissident architecture; Interruption; performativity; fragility; pause; cut; fold; Architecture; Arkitektur;

   Abstract : Interruption: Writing a Dissident Architecture makes a contribution to the fields of writing architecture and dissident architecture. Concerned with developing an ethos of criticality from within, it presents a series of performative writing experiments that are situated in politically charged architectural sites, from public spaces, to institutions, to domestic spaces.

5. 3. Light shapes spaces : experience of distribution of light and visual spatial boundaries

   Author : Ulrika Wänström Lindh; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Practise-based design research; distribution of light; lighting design; architecture; enclosure; perceived dimensions; atmosphere; light zones; light topography; visual spatial boundaries; Practise-based design research; distribution of light; lighting design; architecture; enclosure; perceived dimensions; atmosphere; light zones; light topography; visual spatial boundaries;

   Abstract : Light enables us to experience space. The distribution of light is vital for spatial experience but has not been the main focus of previous research on lighting. The lighting designer’s professional knowledge is to a great extent experience-based and tacit. READ MORE

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

   Author : Sahar Alrabadi; Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö; []

7. 5. Smells: olfactive dimension in designing textile architecture

   Author : Jyoti Kapur; Clemens Thornquist; Delia Dumitrescu; Astrid Mody; Högskolan i Borås; []

   Abstract : Designing with non-visual attributes challenges ways of representation. This research explores methods for designing with invisible materiality within the research practice, as well as ways of representation through textiles when designing spaces. Exploring textiles and smells within a space, the research program investigates spatial interactions. READ MORE
