About the StudioThe studio discusses sustainable urban development in terms of globalization, climate changes, mega cities and urban strategies transformed into new typologies and innovative architecture and urban design. Urban Studio attempts to span the ill-defined realm between architecture and urban planning by encouraging students to work at several scales and in a way that engages students in the dialogue between disciplines. Our focus is on the development of theoretical and practical tools that would enable students to better comprehend and address urban complexities beyond their physical manifestations. In our studio work we place equal emphasis on the urban and architectural scales of project development. Through intense intellectual engagement, experimentation and intense studio work we test existing and new methods for predicting, controlling and manipulating urban dynamics. Through the intense studio work and seminar based learning processes we relate the development of global cities to the urban transformations within Scandinavian context .

In the process of globalization the transformations of cities and the scale and complex processes of urban development have challenged the established knowledge, methods of work and the modes of our practice. We believe that the most challenging, interesting as well as least defined aspect of our practice today is the field of urbanism. However, in the current climate of the development of cities worldwide the professional role of architects as urbanists has been diminished. The ability of new generations of architects to understand how cities grow and change as well as their ability to intervene within these complex processes could positively influence the course of development of cities around the world. It is therefore crucial that architects are equipped with new methods of work and expertise that will enable them to claim an important role as active participants in urban development. The Urban Studio work methodology is based on combination of investigative, research and design based exercises that span across various disciplines and fields of knowledge. We operate within the context of current global changes and we focus on the urban responses to the challenges of today. Our work method is substantiated by frequent international collaborations, study trips and workshops. We rely on the global network of scholars, artists, practitioners and decision makers who help us engage in the complex issues of the local contexts and contribute to raising the professional level of the design work by exposing students to different realities.

The theme for the fall semester 2011 is “Cities in Transition” Chisinau, Moldavia. In this project we will be exploring the new urban strategies and architectural interventions for the city suffering from the extreme effects of the transition from socialist to neoliberal political/economic system. Moldavia currently faces many socio/economic, ecological challenges but has become a focus of attention trough the process of the European integrations. In our studio work we will be inventing potentials for new synergies among the cultural, infrastructural, ecological aspects as well as economic aspects of urban transformations. This project is sponsored by the Swedish Institute (SI – see link: http://www.si.se ). Our work will build upon the initial research work titled “New Urban Topologies” (see link: http://www.fargfabriken.se/uploadeddocs/NUTchisinauminsk.pdf) from the fall of 2010 conducted by “Färgfarbiken” - art organization from Stockholm. A part of our travel expenses will be covered by this scholarship.

The theme for the spring semester 2012 is “Urban Re-use: The Future of Urban-Infrastructures, Hong Kong-Stockholm”. During the spring semester of 2012 we will work on the Kai Tak - Urban River project in the Hong Kong’s District of Kowloon. In this project we will engage in strategies for re-integration of the existing atrophied urban tissues into a new urban structure by integrating nature, infrastructure, urban living and local culture. In the context of extreme urban density we will investigate a new forms of complex urban systems that would lead towards a more sustainable urban environment.

Courses4:1 (A42U1B) and 5:1 (A52U1B) Urban Anatomy I: Cities in Transition: Chisinau - Stockholm PerspectiveDuring the first course of the design studio we will work on a project in the City of Chisinau in Moldavia. The project includes an organised study trip to Chissinau (Sponsored by the Swedish Institute) that will include a series of on-site workshops, meetings and lectures in Chissinau and in Stockholm. The project focuses on the development of new strategies for the future of Chissinau, the capital city of the poorest country in Europe suffering from the transition to the neoliberal economic system. One of the main objectives is to dwell deeper into contemporary issues of urbanisation and develop urban strategies for the more socially and ecologically sustainable development of the city. We will actively participate in the processes and projects that direct public attention toward understanding of the importance of public space as the forum and the stage for democratic transformations of Moldova. The short term objective is to through our hosts become important part of the ongoing process of urban transformations. Through the sequence of design proposals at various scales we will take a proactive role and serve as the mediators between the decision makers and various public interest groups. We plan to contribute to the discussion as well as to learn from this experience while being exposed to the difficult and very real issues that affect the development of Chisinau today as well as many other cities around the world. At the end of the project we plan to produce a publication that would document the process of our work as well as conclusions and results of the project. During the project we plan to work with the local authoritites, NGO’s, policy makers, commercial and public actors that are involved in the process of shaping the modern society in Moldova.

During this period all fifth year students will begin formulating ideas for their thesis work.

4:2 (A42U2B) and 5:2 (A52U2B) Urban Anatomy II: Cities in Transition: Stockholm - Chisinau PerspectiveAt this stage we will further develop the project in Chissinau while comparing the forces that shape the two cities - Chissinau and Stockholm. The Urban Planning Department of the City of Stockholm has a vision for the city for the year 2030 that provides projections for development and growth of Stockholm. The question of how Stockholm could develop as a “World City” in 2030 has been raised. Through a series of seminars and design and research excercises we will inform the design processes and reinforce the design tools through in debt research running parallel with the design studio. The students will work with testing new programs, typologies, and by exploring potentials for contemporary urban forms in Chisinau. The comparative studies on the various forms of urban planning regulations and other planning tools will be used as a method for understanding the inner workings and dynamics of both cities. The final project proposal will investigate both the large scale urban as well as the zoom-in to the architectural scale of the proposal. At the end of this period all fifth year students will submit the final thesis preparation booklet.

4:3 (A42U3B) Sustainable Cities I: The Future of Urban-Infrastructures, Stockholm-Hong Kong PerspectiveDuring this course we will explore the various scales of relation between human activity and it’s impact on the environment. We will identify and investigate the existing industrial infrastructure systems in and around Stockholm metropolitan area at the city scale. The aim is to relate and understand the various new potential relations between the existing infrastructures and various layers of new and existing urban systems including ecological systems. Upon investigating Stockholm at large we will perform a zoom in on the specific sites and through project interventions we will investigate potential synergic relations between the programs and the systems of the site. Two cities will be examined: Stockholm and Hong Kong. The Stockholm case will be a pretext for the subsequent study of the site in Hong Kong.

Throughout the project development we will reflect on and compare the specific challenges that emerge from investigating each of the two urban contexts. The project will include an organized study trip and a workshop in Hong Kong in collaboration with the Chinese University of Hong Kong.

4:4 (A42U4B) Sustainable Cities II: The Future of Urban-Infrastructures, Hong Kong- Stockholm Perspective Upon return from Hong Kong workshop we will continue developing the project that was started during the visit to Hong Kong. We will work with the site along the Kai Tak Creek in Kowloon District - the natural river previously transformed into a sewage channel and is today becoming an urban river with it’s renewed ecology. The potential of this urban infrastructure and its impact on the surrounding urban fabric is enormous and will be a subject of our study and further development of the design projects.

Our goal is to identify potential new uses for selected areas and to propose solutions that would be based on thorough re-thinking of possible uses of space defined by the urban infrastructural systems and the greater integration of urban and ecological systems into the living tissue of the city. The principles of sustainability will be examined in their broader sense, in terms of environmental as well as social, economical and cultural issues.

Studio CultureUrban Studio has a tradition of international collaborative projects, workshops and study trips. Locally, within the context of Stockholm we collaborate with experienced professionals who contribute as lecturers and critics to our studio work. We believe that architecture and urbanism today can develop only if seen through the multiple perspectives and experiences of the global context and therefore we put a strong emphasis on international perspective in our studio work. During the design studio tutorials we help and encourage our students to develop new innovative urban design and architecture design methodologies, essential for facing the present and future challenges and open the doors for new possibilities. Much of our work in the studio is based on intense sequence of project tasks varying in nature from analytical and speculative studies to very concrete design proposals. We stress the importance of teamwork but also value the individual expression and ability of every student to excel in his/her own way. We often collaborate with other studios through lectures and exchange of critics and consider diversity of knowledge and experience among different studios an important asset of our school. Students are encouraged to use the working and presentation techniques that they have already developed. However, we place emphasis on taking these tools to a higher level and encourage investigative processes that lead to new methods of working and thinking. In the studio work we use 2d and 3d digital media for drawing and presentation, hand sketching, model building, photography, video. We encourage readings and studio discussions on the most contemporary research and the current debates on the future of cities. Through this dialogue we explore the dynamic between theoretical and empirical findings conducted in our urban laboratory. This process strengthens the intellectual and generative processes while putting the student work in the perspective of the current debate on future of urbanization.

Urban Design Studio

About the StudioThe Studio actively engages the technological and affective potentials of performative design in architecture. Performance can be understood as the incorporation of contingencies or parameters (material, technical, geometric, programmatic, social and economic) that inform the design process. The generative potential of digital tools makes it possible to use parametric design as a way of evolving new information systems, new modes of fabricating, and producing building components and architecture. Contrary to a linear design approach where technological processes are applied in the interest of optimization; this studio adopts a bi-directional approach where technological processes (digital design tools and computer aided fabrication) are incorporated as drivers of design innovation.

The studio aims at increasing the existing knowledge and enhancing skills within the field of performative design and contributing to an increased comprehension of the discipline of architecture as a whole. The course sequence will establish new ways of thinking about design and fabrication, professional practice and its cultural impact. Upon completion of each project students are expected to have acquired knowledge and skills relevant to the context of the studio (competence in innovative architectural design strategies, advanced digital modeling and fabrication, an awareness of contemporary architectural discourse); and to demonstrate an increased comprehension of the discipline of architecture as a whole.

Courses 4:1 (A42D1B) and 5:1 (A52D1B) Performative Design: (A)biotic Architectures 1The aim of this studio is to investigate an emergent approach to design, ecology and fabrication in architecture. A series of design studies will introduce techniques and issues relevant to the studio’s focus on the performative potential of (A)biotic Architectures – innovative strategies for integration of biological matter into the building envelope. These studies will serve as design research that will form the base for the larger design project in studio 4:2 5:2. An intensive workshop will introduce digital and analogue techniques for design and fabrication. Precedent studies will help build an archive of relevant research on (A)biotic Architectures.*

4:2 (A42D2B) and 5:2 (A52D2B) Performative Design: (A)biotic Architectures 2Through the design of a medium sized building in an urban context, students will refine the studies developed in Studio 4:1 5:1. An emphasis will be placed on the building envelope and the transition between interior and exterior (apertures, shading and ventilation). Design research will be conducted into issues of poché, thickness and surface articulation. A study trip to Paris, France will provide the opportunity for on site study of some of the worlds most interesting examples of (A)biotic architectures.

4:3 (A42D3B) Performative Design: (A)biotic Architectures 3The aim of the studio is to further the knowledge on performative (A)biotic Architectures through the design of a comprehensive building project engaging biological processes and differential climates. By fabricating large-scale details, prototypes, using both digital and analogue fabrication technology, students will be able to assess, test and modulate the performance of their proposals according to individually outlined criteria including structural, mechanical, material (biotic and abiotic) aspects. Studies on substances, materials and techniques for integrating biological matter in building systems will help build an archive of relevant research for (A)biotic Architectures.

4:4 (A42D4B) Performative Design: (A)biotic Architectures 4In the 4:4 studio students will complete the design of the project started in the 4:3 studio placing an emphasis on the generation of spatial, material, and formal effects with respect to building and landscape; organizational logics; and programmatic innovation. Students will gain an understanding of the impact of digital design and digital fabrication on a building scale as well as on a scale that begins to address more extensive urban ecologies.

*biotic - a living component, relating to, produced by, or caused by living organisms // abiotic - non-living chemical and physical factors, components

Studio CultureDesign, Research and TheoryThe main driver for our investigation is design work, supported by digital design systems, as well as digital and analogue fabrication techniques. In parallel, we will research contemporary production techniques. The studio will be exposed to contemporary architectural theory in dialogue with architectural practice through a series of seminars.

TechniquesWe will make use of 3D modeling in Maya and Rhino, parametrics and analogue modeling, particularly by taking full advantage of the Digital Fabrication Lab at the school. 3D-printing and laser cutting will be used in conjunction with analogue techniques like finishing, casting and forming, in order to create models and prototypes that consist of a multitude of different media and materials.

Research and Study TripFall semester: Study trip to Paris to conduct research on the integration of biological matter into architecture. The study trip will include site and office visits to a number of contemporary projects and practices that in various ways make architectural use of (a)biotic materials, such as Musée du quai Branly by Jean Nouvel, I’m lost in Paris / Hydroponic Ferns by R&Sie(n) / Francois Roche and several of Patrick Blanc’s Vertical Gardens. We will also visit historical projects like Isamu Noguchi’s Peace Garden in the UNESCO Headquarters by Marcel Breuer.

TeamsStudents will be working in teams to stimulate the discussion and to generate a common database of knowledge. The teams will be structured in a way that will allow for individual expression and development. The team approach also allows for the parallel development of different perspectives and scenarios within one and the same group.

Course StructureThe course is structured around weekly tutorials with students (2 times a week), a sequence of assignments or design tasks, a series of lectures, seminars and informal pinups. There will be two reviews with external invited jurors; Mid review and Final review.

GuestsThe studio maintains a wide international network and regularly invites architects and theorists for reviews, seminars and workshops. Previous guests include Thom Faulders (CCA, San Francisco), Michael Speaks (University of Kentucky), Florencia Pita (SCI-Arc, Los Angeles), Oliver Tessman (Bollinger + Grohmann, Frankfurt), Sean Lally (UiC, Chicago), Kivi Sotamaa (UCLA/Aalto University, Los Angeles/Helsinki), Matias del Campo (Span / Angewandte, Vienna), Kristof Crolla (Zaha Hadid Architects, London), Ellie Abrons & Adam Fure (University of Michigan) and Luis Callejas (Paisajes Emergentes, Medellin).

Performative Design Studio

About the StudioThe Critical Studies Design Studio engages in critical and feminist strategies for the production of architecture and design. Three central themes we focus on in the four courses: Feminist Design Tools, Dialogical Interventions, Participatory Mapping, and Altering Practices, are positioning, participation and collaborative work, and the critical reflection on power.

Throughout the design projects and in our seminars we engage in the notion of an altering practice, both in terms of understanding the change of existing conditions that each architectural project can bring about, and in terms of understanding how one’s own future practice as an architect can be conducted in such a way as to actively engage in social transformation. The studio provides 4th- and 5th-year students an opportunity to work through critical and experimental design methods, with the support of lectures, workshops, tutorials and seminars.

A unique aspect of our studio is the integration of writing and making practices, preparing students for both professional practice, as well as research positions, and supporting the student to position oneself, to reflect and to imagine otherwise.

Courses4:1 (A42K1B) and 5:1 (A52K1B) Feminist Design ToolsCourse leader: Katarina Bonnevier.This studio is taking on the challenge of differentiation, to explore the architectural possibilities to slide over or reposition oppressive orders through critical fiction. We enter into the domain of exaggerations, a maximum-architecture whose main interest is to provoke sensibilities, actions and thoughts. Alongside our hands-on production, we will grab feminist theory, especially queer theory, by the hand to guide us in our interpretations. Feminist Design Tools aims to develop critical skills, methods and projects in order to identify, explore and propose new or alternative possibilities within the thought and practice of architecture and design – to initiate a realization of dreams of transformation. This year, ANIMALS will be our source of inspiration and catalyst for exploring the relationship between people, people and animals, and animals and animals, through built spaces of relatively small scale, located in a fictional site.

4:2 (A42K3B) and 5:2 (A52K3B) Dialogical InterventionsCourse leader: Brady BurroughsThis studio develops architectural interventions in dialogue with a social, physical and theoretical context. We will explore the affect of physical and social boundaries in the formation of identities and the rooms they inhabit. By architecturally questioning ideas of inclusion, exclusion and power, Dialogical Interventions aims to shift, synthesize and transform the way we think about and practice architecture and design. This course is “making-intensive” and will continue with the ANIMAL theme from the previous project. We will build upon our explorations in a more complex program, a sanctuary- for both human and non-human residents, in the use and re-use of an existing place.

4:3 (A42K2B) and 5:1 (A52K1B) Participatory MappingCourse leader: Meike Schalk.This studio develops tools for spatial research, collecting specific knowledge through building a participatory engagement with sites, contexts, and actors. The application of activist and feminist practices unearths social knowledge, which complements analytical and generalized instruments in urbanism and architecture, with personal, subjective and narrative accounts. Urban and architectural design proposals will evolve that consider the intimate scale of 1:1, as well as larger conceptual frameworks. During this course we will collaborate with a group of architects and artists, including the architecture office Spridd on a live project for the Stockholm suburb of Bargarmossen. The work will be published in a book.

4:4 (A42K4B) and 5:2 (A52K3B) Altering PracticesCourse leader: Meike Schalk This studio builds on urban and architectural proposals developed in the previous projects, and explores possibilities for articulating their transformative potential in an extended geographical and temporal perspective. We will test our material in the design of an Oral History Centre, focusing on the Million program areas. The design process engages mapping, representation techniques, and critical practices that are employed to expand and develop the architectural, material, and programmatic precision of the proposed urban and architectural interventions.

Studio CultureThe Critical Studies Design Studio is a place where we engage in design and research, and we do this in an integrated way. Architectural design projects produce knowledge and instigate change. In our projects we will frequently return to questions such as, what knowledge have we gained here and how will this project alter the conditions right here, who may benefit from this change, who might not? Research in our studio is pursued both as you build up your individual portfolio of design projects and collectively as we test out and develop new critical design methods in collaboration. A series of research and methodology seminars will support this aspect of the studio, which includes producing a booklet to clarify individual design and research questions, programs, methodologies and concepts.

Students will be required to make a connection between their work and the effect it may have ’outside’ of the academic environment, raising questions about social responsibility through architectural means. Combining resources between the master studio and the elective courses of FATALE (Feminist Architecture Theory – Analysis Laboratory Education), such as a lecture series, and an experimental writing and studio course with international guests, we anticipate a vital exchange amongst participants with various backgrounds and build a network for future work collaborations.

The Autumn study trip will go to Belfast, a city marked by thirty years of conflict and territorial divisions, but also of neutral zones and places created for negotiation. We will meet architects, artists, geographers, and planners working in this context, and participate in the architecture conference AHRA, with the theme: Peripheries, at Queens University. See the website for more information: http://www.qub.ac.uk/sites/Peripheries2011Conference/ There will be a minor study trip in the spring.

En kartläggning av somligas bostads-ovanor

Hur definieras programmet för ett specifikt boende?

Utifrån intervjuer med människor i min ut-vidgade bekantskapskrets utvecklas ett antal lägenhetstypologier. De gestaltar särskilda rumsliga egenskaper eller samband (interna samband eller relation till omgivningen) som krävs för att möjliggöra en aktivitet eller en familjestruktur. Undersökningen leder till insikten att boendet är en aktivitet, att en förhandling sker mellan ens behov, önskemål och rummen man bor i. Ibland kan de sam-sas, men så är inte alltid fallet. Att möta alla basbehov betyder inte att bostaden är helt funktionell.

På den här sidan presenteras ett urval ur denna “programskrivning” som också kan läsas som en palett av rum, egenskaper och samband som sätts samman i den större struktur en som flerbostadshuset utgör (se nästa sida).

Klättringsträning kan ske på olika sätt: på klättervägg med säkring, på boulderingvägg utan säkring men med madrasser att landa på, och med hjälp av träningsredskap i och runt dörrkarmar t ex för att träna grepp-styrka (som i bilden).

En klättrare ser sitt hem med andra ögon, en dold potential blir synlig. Dörrkarmarna blir redskap. Sängen används för att landa mjukt.

Mindre sovrum möjliggör större gemensamma rum. Det stora aktiv-itetsrummet i mitten kan ha kontakt med andra sociala rum av mer fast karaktär som kök och tv-rum, eller stängas av och mörkläggas. Alter-nativa användningar är sovsal, kafé, mötesrum, fotostudio, syjunta, festlokal, eller helt enkelt tälta eller leka stort.

Tidens betydelse återkommer i intervjun. Ett halvår beskrivs som försvunnet i en arbetsdimma: “vart tog våren vägen?” Bostaden kan förstärka kopplingen till den långsamma tiden, till de växlande årstiderna. Bostaden organiseras runt

Utrymmeskrav och den skiftande karaktären bostaden genomgår varje vecka är svårlösta. Förändringsbe-hovet kan mötas på olika sätt; genom generalitet (att en fast situation kan hantera olika krav och önskemål), genom flexibilitet (att en situationär enkel att förändra), eller genom

“Ett rum&garage” istället för “ett rum&kök”. Som rumstyp är garaget användbart för aktiviteter som kräver oömma ytor. Vid behov kan det hyras ut.

pingisEn typisk grej som händer är att vi börjar spela pin-gis efter middagen. Ibland plockas innebandyklubborna fram. Vi har inte så mycket prylar så det är inga prob-lem, förutom att grannen blir sur.

Critical Studies Design Studio

About the StudioResearch and science is not really about finding answers but about asking questions. There is no future in answers, if we eventually find everything out, this will ultimately mean the undoing of science, the reason to learn and the production of knowledge. So why is it then that architectural practice is so much about consolidating that which we already know? One possible answer is that accepted knowledge and conventional wisdom is comforting. If we all agree that something is good, proper and well done, then we don’t really have to think. But our built environment is precisely about uncertainties; it is a dynamic and complex web of relations between people, organizations, ownerships, opposing interests, opportunities, and transactions. If this is true, why are so many architects so concerned with the city as physical manifestation, to emphasize aesthetics over politics, objects over relations? It seems that even though the built environments include architecture, architecture as a practice contradicts many of the properties that constitute it.

The design process forms a central part in the creation of any architectural project and it is something separate from the daily management of projects. Management is about already existing knowledge, such as regulations, laws and economics. Design process on the other hand is about early stages, concepts and the creation of new knowledge and how this relates to our surroundings. Context is not static and it is not only a place, as architects often tend to think, it exists in every stage of the development of a project. Context is also a spread in an architectural magazine, typologies being taught by professors, visual clichés about space being televised daily, customs translated into law, economical-political agreements, etc. Every new project also modifies all efforts trying to contextualize it, producing new mutated contexts. Within the Design Process Studio we try to question the artificial opposition between theory and practice, the work is about tracing the complex ecologies that define our built environment and the practices involved in creating them. We seek to critically engage with the discipline and praxis of architecture through both practice and theory.

This studio will take its starting point in the city, its phenomena, properties and complexities in order to invigorate and push architectures performative sides. It is not so much about what architecture looks like but rather what architecture does. This will happen through extensive studies of how cities are produced, how architecture is linked to the production of images as well as hands-on fieldwork in the fabric of our built environment. The studio is divided into four blocks. Along side the courses, which are formulated as pragmatic and down to earth, there will be a series of lectures and seminars on urbanism, alternative architectural practice, new media, contemporary philosophy and architectural theory.

Courses4:1 (A42P1B) and 5:1 (A52P1B) House/HomeOver the last decade building costs for single-family houses have doubled in Stockholm. Prices of land have followed the same trajectory. The average area of a single-family house is more or less constant. What has happened to the quality of housing during the same period? Your assignment is to make a proposal for a single-family house. How much architecture can you get for 3 million SEK?

4:2 (A42T2B) and 5:2 (A52T2B) Block/HomeHow do contemporary building materials and technologies relate to the production of architecture? During this course you will work on an apartment block in one of Stockholm’s many planned expansion zones, at the same time tracing and critically researching the history of Swedish housing polices.

4:3 (A42T3B) Public/SpaceDuring this course we will work on a small but complex program for a public building/community centre. The starting point is to answer what kind of public buildings are needed today and in our immediate future? The ambition here is to link a deeper discussion about public space, architecture and planning with a hands-on, programmatic proposal for a public building/space. Your assignment is both to propose a working program as well as making a detailed design for such a program for a planned future urban district in Stockholm.

4:4 (A42T4B) Visionary/SpaceToday we witness how symbolic spaces are being transformed, islands of potentiality seem to continually be shrinking, becoming more and more striated and inscribed in an increasingly tighter and tighter network of political protocols and economic strategies. Deliberate or not, an over- arching project for an emerging alternative architectural practice would seem to be to discuss the control of the utopian dimension of society. What role do architecture and the architect play in this discussion about the future of public space?

Tutors, Teachers, Professors• Tor Lindstrand (Stockholm) is Associate Professor and co-owner of the office of Larsson,

Lindstrand and Palme. He has been working on projects oscillating between architecture, visual art and performance in numerous cultural contexts, among others TATE Liverpool, Venice Biennale 2008 and 2010, Steirischer Herbst, Shenzhen and Hong Kong Bi-city Biennale of Urbanism/Architecture 2009, VOLTA Basel, Performa New York, Royal Dramatic Theatre Copenhagen, NAI Rotterdam, Stockholm Architecture Museum and Storefront New York. Together with choreographer Marten Spangberg he initiated International Festival, a practice merging architecture and performance, understanding architecture as a means of organizing situations. International Festival has created context specific projects spanning from buildings, publications, films, installations, public interventions and situations. In 2010 he founded Economy together with Jessica Watson-Galbraith. Economy is a Swedish-Australian platform working with architecture, art, education and management. Tor Lindstrand was awarded Architect of the Year in 2007.

• Anders Wilhelmson is an architect and professor at The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, and has for ten years been professor at The Royal University Collage of Fine Arts in Stockholm. He is running his own practice, Wilhelmson architects AB, with is engaged in a diverse field of architecture spanning from cities to furniture, as well as marketing design. Clients are among others LKAB HSB, Saab Automobile and OFFECCT. In 2006 he founded Peepoople AB, a company engaged in delivering hygiene and sanitation to the worlds urban slums, refugee camps and emergencies. Since 2009 he is an Ashoka Fellow.

Design Process Studio

About the StudioTeaching architecture involves, in our opinion, a pact of trust between teachers and students. The pact is about personal development and involves the challenge of transformation. Students are asked to entertain abstract ideas, turn them into a cohesive concept, and then translate all in a creative way to a physical entity. Meanwhile, they have to consider a large number of variables.

The challenge of Architectural education arises from the teachers’ dual role: they are asked to lead yet play only a supportive role. Students are taught to develop and act on their own vision and creativity (rather than their teachers’), within a frame of meaning and purpose of a living human complex interpreted with the help of teachers. Success means that students managed to form their own architectural identity, understand their strengths and weaknesses, exploit the former and find ways to overcome the latter. These assumptions form the conceptual foundations of my pedagogical vision.

From an abstract point of view the heart of my vision can be depicted as a funnel in which individual development forms the vertical axis while the program and teachers produce a spinning momentum which gains students lift. The funnel framework involves four efforts. First, to create custom tailored education that supports the specific development of each student. Second, to establish a holistic teaching program that inspires students to think broadly and in interdisciplinary manner. Third, to amalgamate learning and research into a program that supports the study of applied issues and sustainability in a cost effective manner. Fourth, to form opportunities for students to experiment with a variety of building materials and architectural tools (such as CAM and nanotechnology), and work/research in proximity to the industry, while strictly preserving ethical standards.

Courses4:1 (A42Y1B) International Architecture CompetitionPractise Based Research studio-Competitive edge: Through participation in an international architectural competition in 4-5 teams of teachers and students, this Studio shall investigate different creative processes and advanced Holistic design production strategies. Teachers are the “producers and consultants” to the students’ teams, yet this part of the course is a “joint venture” between teachers and students.

4:2 (A42Y2B) Women in Black The two fall and winter courses will deal with Europe’s edge, this time Israel and Jordan. The project aims at analyzing and than creating a holistic solution for the complicated seam connecting Jaffa and Tel Aviv: a place of contradictions, Jews and Arabs, old and new money and culture, this project is a town-plan down to house-plan.

The frame of the projects range is such:1. We shall investigate the terminology” border” with-in a functioning city, between two

neighbouring cities (Tel Aviv and Jaffa), between two people and their colliding cultures (Jews and Arabs), between old and new, reach and poor.

2. We shall crystallize a personal concept (each student according to his hers political economical an human perception) , a concept dealing with the PHYSICAL meaning of borders.

3. We shall challenge the notion weather it is possible for two polarized cultures to exist together (in close vicinity with rather blurry borders) and is it possible fore these two groups to live as a blended entity.

4. We shall understand the notion of conservation with-in a city with live and active fabric, and if creation of “living museums” (that later are often inhabited by economically strong individuals) is an acceptable solution and if not how could other directions be taken.

5. Is there place for “public memory spaces” in our physical environment?6. We shall observe the reality of a dominant culture take over and almost annihilate a previous

and weaker one.7. We shall create physical (architectural) tools to try and pacify national, economical and social

pressures in an environment that saturated with profound conflict that have lasted for decades.These projects will start with a work shop in Sweden and than a study trip and a workshop on site (2-3 weeks) in Israel and Jordan; our partners are local Israeli architects.We shall continue to develop the project back in Stockholm (we sponsor part of study trip costs)

4:3 (A42Y3B) Widows in Black We will continue to develop the project: chose a specific part and or individual project (living culture leisure) and develop this entity down to 1 to 1 solution (material details etc.). Final critique will occur during March 2012 in Stockholm. Course 1 and 2 shall be coached and criticized as one large project (with our Israeli teachers as critiques).

4:4 (42Y4B) The Future of the Satellite CitiesPractise Based Research studio –Europe’s front line: The last leg of studio will deal with “urban corridors” from Helenelund Centrum in Sollentuna, through Helenelunds alle and Kistagången to Kistamässan. This axis shall be investigated with the intention of creating intensity and urban complexity through attempting to develop vertical identity (Today, a low-high rise is already in place). This project is a real life project coached and supported by the community chief architect, expecting unorthodox and superior design solutions to be applied by the community.***Year 5 students can chose between the fourth year courses and the proposals below

5:1 (A52Y1B) Full Proof 1Students shall engage in an international competition in teams or single handed With each team/individual a teacher we will be coach alternative partner of the proposal. The purpose is to create an optimum project in a given frame of time and a clearly defined program and goal, a good repetition for the thesis work.

5:2 (A52Y2B) Full Proof 2A pre project related to the thesis, with accentuation on methodology presentation and general portfolio preparation (could be updating, upgrading and professionalizing the presentation portfolio)

5:3 and 5:4 (A52Y3-4B) Full Proof 3-4Thesis Project

Studio CultureOur studio deals with your personal capacity (we have no isms), and strives for holistic apprehension of architecture, there fore our study process and final presentation shall take you through all available media from free hand sketches to the outmost sophisticated 3D modelling digital and physical as well as a heavy dose of animations.

We cover with you (based on your personal judgment) a full complex process from concept to perfect presentation and if asked down to cost calculations. For us design is every thing and every thing should be designed from your project down to the lettering you chose. And back to the perfect portfolio material you shall have at the end of this study year.

If research or theory is your aim we shall create with you a program to fit your personal need and see to it that you achieve your personal goal. Some project shall be individual an some personal you will do both.

We travel but in a different manner than the rest of the studios, (trend is rather mundane to us) this years study trip is a good example; since our first two courses are dealing with “Europe edge” we will spend two weeks in the south of Sicily in the town of Vitoria, besides an exotic workshop we shall learn the Socio-Economical and cultural background of the region as well as Sicily, (the culture, history foods wines music etc.) again we deal with holistic understanding and complex projects not trends. Our teachers are available at least two days a week as personal coaches in class. Based on our long experience we achieve with each one of you results that are highly personal and extra ordinary.

Practice Based Research Studio

About the StudioDesigning for a sustainable society begins with change of attitude, followed by rethinking of existing paradigms and the development of new strategies. This design studio emphasises sustainability, ecology, energy and new technologies in architecture and urban design.

The built environment still stands for an overall of 40% of energy consumption, CO2 emissions and landfill caused by construction waste. How can architecture continue to meet this challenge? What is the influence on the architectural form and the user?

The main aim of the studio is to examine the relationship between architecture and environmental performance. How can the future architect generate integrated solutions for net zero energy consumption, cradle to cradle resource management as well as changing programmatic requirements in the social urban environment.

During 2011/2012 the academic focus lies on the building being part of an ecosystem. Related research topics are: biology, biomimicry, ecology, water, energy, waste, resource

management, the embodied energy of materials and structures in a lifecycle perspective and how this influences the architectural design.

Learning outcomes• To develop interdisciplinary, integrated design strategies where environmental prerequisites are

regarded early in the architectural process.• To acquire knowledge and insights about architecture in a lifecycle perspective.• To acquire knowledge and insights about architectural form in relationship to local conditions,

climate, urban settings, social environment and energy efficiency. • To gain access to recent tools for conceptual, analytical and technical design methods• An increased understanding about the relationship between architecture and its environmental

impact.

Courses4:1 (A42H1B) and 5:1 (A52H1B) “Temporary Pavilion for Children”Design of a temporary and reusable/recyclable preschool with focus on the life cycle involved in its production including prefabrication, montage, maintenance, disassembly and material recycling.

New materials and structural systems shall be researched and analysed for the potential to be reused or recycled and then applied in an architectural project that expresses the result in a creative, experimental design to its users - children, staff and parents.

Main criteria are: material research, architectural expression, building performance, production, transport, construction.

This course is run parallel and in collaboration with the department’s “Civil and Architectural Engineering” and “Real Estate and constructing management”. The project will be developed in groups of two architecture students and one of each of the other studio’s students.

4:2 (A42H2B) and 5:2 (A52A2B) “Greenhouse Symbiosis”Design of an urban greenhouse that works in symbiosis with its context. The course starts with a study trip to the UK where we will visit the Eden Project by Grimshaw in Cornwall followed by the Royal Kew Gardens and other historical greenhouses in London. Additional visits to the Olympic Park and the AA are planned.

Use strategies from nature, local conditions, “free energy” from the surroundings, climatic pre-requisites and how they change during day and seasons - to design a greenhouse as part of an overall resilient ecosystem.

Main criteria are: adaptive design, biomimicry; learn from and imitate nature, resilience, ecosystems and diversity.

Two intense one week workshops are scheduled: The first on learning parametric design tools and the second on biomimicry research and design strategies.

Research task will be done in groups, design task will be done individually.

5:1 (A52H1B) and (A52A2B) 5:2 Thesis, Sustainable DesignThe diploma preparation work, the thesis project, will be done parallel and integrated into the course. 5th year students who completed one year at the Sustainable Design studio get the opportunity of individually defining the focus of their investigation responding to the raised issues.

4:3 (A42H3B) “Climate and the Building Envelope”We will focus on different climatic situations and the relationship between local conditions, climate, material and architectural form. The first part of the project focuses on how climate informs the adaptive design of a building envelope in different contexts. Two intense one week workshops are scheduled:

One on learning Ecotect analytic software and one concerning matters relating architectural design to environmental engineering issues.

The project will be done individually.

4:4 (A42H4B) “Urban Transformation”Reuse, redesign and transformation of an existing industrial site into a new spatial and urban context with mixed-use functions in two scenarios: year 2015 and year 2035.• Part 1 (Week 8-12): Urban Scale and Net Zero cluster development (group work)• Part 2 (Week 14-22): Building scale and general/flexible design (individual work)We will investigate architecture in a life cycle perspective, the building as a part of an overall ecosystem and the relationship between architectural form and the ability to change over time. New technology and architectural ideas will be adapted to the existing in order to transform the structure with low environmental impact.

Studio CultureThe courses are structured around a sequence of intermediate design tasks of different scales, weekly pin-ups, seminars and tutorials, individually and/or in groups. There will be two reviews with external invited jurors: Mid review and Final review. The intense research and design work, partly done in groups, requires that all students work at the Studio.

Research and development is an important part of the Studio culture, where the students, tutored by the teachers, acquire knowledge to develop new solutions to the questions raised. To be able to work on an interdisciplinary integrated design process, where sustainability aspects are raised early in the project, the use of analytical software is crucial, therefore a basic understanding of 3D modeling is required.

The intense weekly Pin-Ups in form of digital and analogue material, powerpoint presentations, print outs, analytic diagrams, renderings, 3D models as well as physical models demand a high level of production.

Further professional guests will be invited to guest lectures and reviews to accompany the design process. By collaborating with other departments at the KTH - the Department of Energy Technology and Building Services Engineering as well as the Stockholm Resilience Center at SU, the studio has close contact with the fast developing field of research concerning sustainable architecture and urban design.

Sustainable Design Studio

About the StudioChanges in the physical environment constantly affect built and un-built places. We will investigate the contextual frames and make programs and design for new and existing – modern and historic – spaces. Through the year we will explore reasons for the building(-s) to exist, both originally, in today’s society and in the future. The students will find methods for gaining knowledge about a building/site, learn the history of architecture of the objects, identify values and threats and understand the building in relation to its physical surroundings, materials and building techniques used.

During the autumn semester, we investigate how changes in the physical environment constantly affect built and un-built places and we will analysed existing works. The aim of the spring semester is to develop these discoveries about place and the architectural work through a design project. The focus is on context, material and scale.

Fifth year students will have individual settings related to existing portfolio and the coming theses work. The students will a) learn how to analyze and interpret the existing physical environ-ment and individual buildings, using methods developed in the studio; b) practice how to add new design to the existing.

Courses4:1 (A42R1B) Context of place: Analyse a Place Course content: analyzing a place and tracing its bordersCourse disposition: lectures, seminars, tutorial in studio and reviewsPresentation requirements: drawings 1:1000 – 1:1, models 1:1000 – 1:5 and photos of site and models Course literature: Monument & Niche: Carsten Juel Christiansen, Rhodos. The phenomenology of place: Christian Nordberg-Schultz. Den förskjutna gränsen: Pål Röjgård Harryan Article in Arkitektur 6/07. Berlin the Politics of Order: Alan Balfour, Rizzoli.

The aim of the course is to increase awareness of spatial complexity in terms of both the physical environment as well as the experience of place. The goal is to find architectural tools and methods to form a personal aproach towards architectonic space. We will investigate different categories of phenomenon by locating a place and tracing its boundaries within a specific context. Tracing layers of time, the permanent and the temporary, hierarchies, contrasts and materiality will demand varying media to express the nature of the studied subject. Lectures will support this process and help inform the production of different types of two- and three-dimensional representations, essential to the course.

4:2 (A42R2B) Context of Space: Imagine and Experience ArchitectureCourse content: analysis and experience of an architectural work + preparation of a study tripCourse disposition: lectures, seminars, tutorial in studio and workshop (group work)Presentation requirements: drawings 1:1000 – 1:1, models 1:1000 – 1:5 and photos in relation to complexity Course literature: reference literature and architectural monographs on the specific object of study

The aim of the course is to investigate the difference between the imagined/theoretical experience of an architectural work with the direct experience of it on site. The goal is to get closer to the architectural process of imagining the realisation of an idea and the discovery of how it actually is in built form. While lectures will provide input to the study, an essential part of the course will be to plan the study trip.

During this period, a special requirement for the 5th year is to give a lecture to the rest of the studio on a chosen subject or interest related to the thesis work.

4:3 (A42R3B) Interaction with Details: Develop a Spatial Context Through Details. Course content: make a detail with a specific context, material and scale. Course disposition: lectures, seminars, tutorial in studio and reviews. Presentation requirements: drawings 1:1000 – 1:1, models 1:1000 – 1:5 and photos of site and models

During the first semester, we investigated how changes in the physical environment constantly affect built and un-built places and analysed existing works. The aim of this course is to develop these discoveries about place and the architectural work through a design project on a new site. The focus is on context, material and scale. Beginning with a detail, we will develop a program and concept in relation to a new context and design a proposal for a built work, based upon relevant influences such as physical, social, historical, ideological, philosophical, and/or economical factors.

4:4 (A42R4B) Historical context of place: Make a place within a historic contextCourse content: restoration and renewal of an existing setting work. Course disposition: lectures, seminars, tutorial in studio and reviews. Presentation requirements: drawings 1:1000 – 1:1, models 1:1000 – 1:5 and photos of site and models.

The aim of this course is to understand and become familiar with the architectural tools required to work with a historically valuable building. Through the project, we will explore reasons for the building to exist, both in today’s society and in the future, while still respecting the artistic and historical values of the building. Some of the areas covered are as follows: methods for gaining knowledge about a building, history of architecture in relation to the chosen building, restoration theories in theory and practice, values of and threats against the built heritage, the building in relation to its physical surroundings, materials and building techniques used (original and throughout the history of the building), possible new innovative ways of using the existing building to solve its current problems, relevant and contextual design solutions for new additions to the existing – in large and in detail, sustainability and reversibility of added materials and structure, sensibility of materials, ethical approaches and social consequences to preservations and changes, environmentally friendly and energy efficient innovative approaches to the existing buildings, preservation and renewal in an international context.

Studio CultureThe students work primarily individually, but all the time in relation to the other students in the overall frame of the studio and the project. During the working process we will stress the production of models, drawings and photos as focal point of discussions about architecture and try to develop techniques and skills for the presentation of each project. Course disposition: lectures, seminars, tutorial in studio and reviews. There will be one study visit during project 2, closely related to the project. As teachers we are present for tutoring two days per week each in the studio.

The focus is on context, material and scale, which we reach by working with the relation between drawings in different scales, physical models and computer models, Photoshop applications and material studies.

The studio discuss relevant and contextual design solutions for new additions to the existing – in large and in detail – such as sustainability, sensibility and reversibility of added materials and structure, ethical approaches and social consequences to preservations and changes; promote environmentally friendly and energy efficient innovative approaches to the existing buildings; observe preservation and renewal in an international context.

Contextual Space Studio

About the SudioThe Landscape Design Studio enters into contemporary and future issues about urban development. The approach is architecture based on a landscape relation, from a strategic planning situation to small scale urban design projects. The studio is emphasizing on the urban void between the buildings in the city that creates the public spaces. The method is contextual and conceptual.

The studios goal is to increase the student’s knowledge in this area and skills in the field of landscape architecture and architecture in general. The students will enter the project with varying degrees of knowledge and will subsequently end up at different levels at the end of the courses.

The individual student must show an increase and development in the particular skills offered in the studio and in the field of landscape architecture. Learning outcome, at the completion of the courses, each student should: • Be able to analyze the strategic landscape situation on a place such as space, buildings history,

ecology and functions.• Be familiar with the critical discussion concerning the programming and designing of public

spaces.• To learn to handle the relationship in-between buildings and landscapes, how to place volumes

and create interactive spaces.• Design public spaces together with buildings on a specific site.• Be able to use common methods and techniques in landscape architecture practice.• Get familiar with materials in the field of landscape architecture.• Get a deeper understanding of contemporary urban design and landscape architecture projects

through study trips, lectures and literature.

Courses4:1 (A42L1B) and 5:1 (A52L1B) Growing and DecreasingHead teacher Johan Paju.Theory: The growing and decreasing society. An ecological and geographical cut through Scandinavia, from Umeå to Mo I Rana along the river valley of Vindelälven and over the mountain chain to the fjords of Norway. From the lively city of Northern Sweden through the depopulated forest areas via the tourism of the Lapponia mountains to the fishing and industry in the fjordlands of Norway.

Study trip: From Umeå to Mo I Rana travelling with minivans.Project: We will work with an integrated project where landscape, building and space are parts

of a whole that is creating architectural projects that take part in the local landscape context and its ongoing processes.

We will collaborate with Grans lappish community and the regional authorities on a site in Ammarnäs in the Vindelfjällen Natural Reserve.

4:2 (A42L2B) and 5:2 (A52L2B) In the public spaceHead teacher Gustav AppellTheory: The growing society and the new public areas. The public space in the densely populated urban situation must be considered with the needs of our time in mind. This will give new answers to what public life is, and could be, in the city, and what forms and expressions this space can have. And what parts it can play in the urban life.

Project: A public space linked to a public building in the Stockholm region. Developing the working methods of period 1 we will now address the urban context, focusing on the interaction between architectural projects and the processes of the urban landscape.

4:3 (A42L3B) Art and LandscapeHead teacher Göran Lindberg Theory: If you start to search into the history of art it reveals that art as image and expression on several occasions strongly has influenced landscape architecture. Example; seventeenth century landscape paintings in relation to the English landscape park, Romanticism in nineteenth century paintings, translated into romantic parks with ruins and dramatic nature sceneries, the land art movement in the sixties and seventies – important influences for the park design in the 90- and 00-.

In what way do art and architecture interact with each other today? What do we see right now in this field in relation to rural and urban development?

Project: Using and taking inspiration from concepts in contemporary art into architectural projects in rural and urban contexts.

4:4 (A42L4B) Grow the CityHead teacher Bengt IslingTheory: It grows and withers in the city; in parks, on courtyards and perhaps buildings. This is used by people in allotment gardens, guerrilla gardening, and other local initiatives, but there are also many construction projects with such features. The landscape, which is the prerequisite for any crop, is if you want to see it everywhere present in the city. Landscape Urbanism is a current trend in landscape architecture and architecture provides theories on this which we are investigating. How can the existing landscape in Stockholm be a factor to develop and exploit? In the project we investigate conditions for growing food in the city.

Study trip; London.Project: Cultivation in a park and on buildings in Stockholm

Studio CultureThe studio’s education is based on project work, small and large surveys with work both in groups and individual. The studio will provide an opportunity to future architects to be able to get basic knowledge in reading and understanding all form of landscapes, as we see it necessary for a future profession as an architect. You can’t become an excellent architect or landscape architect if you don’t understand the relationship of buildings, the site and the landscape. The studio works with projects around current issues and tasks in the society, places and situations with a local and regional perspective. Our aim is to search, explore and rediscover a Scandinavian tradition, the relationship of nature, urban landscapes, buildings and interventions. Our hope and desire is that the studio will become a platform for exchange of ideas, theories, teaching and research with wide contacts, interdisciplinary and international. The studio is open for using all forms of techniques, mediums, materials but has its base in working with traditional architect tools. Making study trips to explore, experience and learn from urban and rural landscapes is an important part in the studios concept and culture.

Tutors, Teachers, ProfessorsWe teachers look at ourselves as reflective practitioners, education with close interaction between practice, teaching and theory.• For Gustav Appell the structure, space and materiality of building and site is one thing. There

is no border between landscape and architecture. Gustav graduated from KTH in 1999. Since 2007 he runs his own office, Gustav Appell Arkitektkontor.

• Bengt Isling is particularly interested in examining the site and society in relation to landscape architecture. He is since 1987 responsible at Nyréns landscape architects.

• Johan Paju looks at the landscape as a process to follow and interact with. It is about define entireties and to create the context. Johan Paju was one of the founders of the office NOD 1998, operating since 2007 Paju architecture and landscape.

• Göran Lindberg is interested in the relationship between buildings and landscapes, to look at the city’s structural meetings, between the built elements and spaces. Göran is one of three partners at the office Nivå landskapsarkitektur.

Landscape Design Studio

About the StudioDesigning a Public Building – Rules, RitesThe projects in the studio of advanced design deal with the development and resolution of functional, architectonic and constructional requirements. The key learning outcome is a deepened understanding into the aims and realities of architectural practice. Every year a theme is formulated to encourage an open discussion on the prospects and progress of contemporary architecture.

A lot of what is built today seems arbitrary; in how it relates to its context and its lack of internal logic that creates its form. The means that the building industry provides may be one factor behind this, but it is without doubt also the result of loss of architectural rigor within the discipline itself.

The underlying theme of the year, Rules, rites suggest a potential in acknowledging a common ground. There are ways of doing things. Rules and rites where traditionally more definite (and often repressive), but they enabled certain qualities in art and gave meaning to social situations. What are the rules and rites of today? We believe that rules are a useful, even necessary, aspect in the profession of architecture. The students will be encouraged to bring this question into their design work, from an artistic as well as social perspective. Architectural rules are deployed in certain aspects of the profession. Social rites are less apparent today, but perhaps because of that more important to acknowledge.

The theme of Rules, Rites is also a discourse in progress for a forthcoming international architectural symposium, initiated by institutions related to the studio, The Stockholm Seminar. The symposium is planned for the autumn of 2012.

This years design tasks are a District Library and a Dining Pavilion. Both are situations where the private sphere meets the collective. The students will be encouraged to develop a heightened understanding for the characteristics of the buildings they propose. Relationships between site, external form, spatial order and constructional principles will be scrutinized.

During the last years the studio has developed a study methodology that apart from the individual design work comprises certain specified tasks, which draws knowledge from what has been built. To introduce an historic and structural overview into the design task we make case studies of a complex building type (this year libraries). In order to make a shift into a detailed scale we make measure survey of an extraordinary building from the 20th century, preliminary for this year is one of the chapels on Eastern Cemetery in Malmö by S Lewerentz.

Planned Distinguished GuestsWilfred Wang, Professor at the University of TexasQuintus Miller, partner of Miller+Maranta, Switzerland

Courses4:1 (A42A1B) and 5:1 (A52A1B) District Library – Phase IA new district in Stockholm, Norra Djurgårdsstaden, is being developed for 30 000 workplaces and 10 000 apartments. The most spectacular project is the apartment tower by Herzog & de Meuron. Adjacent to this is the culturally listed gasworks by Ferdinand Boberg. In this setting of strong architectural presence the students will make proposals for a District Library of around 3-4 000sqm.

4:2 (A42A2B) and 5:2 (A52A2B) District Library – Phase IIContinuation of project 4:1/5:1. Architectural standpoints are developed further alongside with closer considerations of the functions. The result should be a convincing proposal regarding structural and organizational principles, the building form as a whole, and its relation to the surroundings. Seminar/tutorial with a structural engineer will be arranged.

4:3 (A42A3B) Dining Pavilion The task is to design a Dining Pavilion with around 150 seats. Focus will be on developing the main dining hall with sincerity and joy. It needs to be robust and flexible for changing use from day to evening, from the everyday to festivities. The students will be encouraged to start with an experimental phase, investigating particular architectural themes, not unlike the Serpentine Gallery’s Summer Pavilion where internationally acclaimed architects key interests come to a test.

4:4 (A42A4B) Construction – LiningFor the last phase of the year we will return to the either the District Library or the Dining Hall. Closer studies of the buildings construction and its secondary elements will be made in specific drawing tasks and physical models. The aim is to come as close as possible to an understanding of the actual production of building.

Studio CultureThe theme of the year is a way to structure lectures, seminars and design tasks. We also encourage students to take on their own critical studies on the limits and possibilities of architecture in society, as political tool and aesthetic discipline.

The core of what´s taught in the studio of advanced design is the ability to design a building from a complex set of issues, to keep several considerations open in a parallel process, for the best possible outcome. I.e. it means moving from ideas of atmosphere and character to spatial organisation and structural analysis and back again. It also implies using different design tools, testing ideas in different ways – moving from cad and digital images, to hand sketches and workshop crafted models, alternating slow and fast ways of working. We believe in an open process where the student should develop her personal skills and engagement into the work.

The weekly rhythm of individual tutorial is important for the students to develop their proposal in depth and detail. The student shall print out new drawings for each tutorial - this is to ensure high efficiency in the informal discussions. Tutorials will be complemented with pin ups, reviews and workshops focusing on certain aspects such as construction, facade detailing, inhabitation, daylight and materiality.

Studytrip: A studytrip to Athens will be arranged during the spring term, where we study ancient as well as contemporary architecture.

About the StudioThrough architectural projects, this Studio investigates different experiences of architecture and conceptions of space, in relation to the synthesizing design process. It could also be defined as a Research by Design Studio on applied aesthetics investigating basic architectural concepts; colour, texture, light, gravity, sound, time and space... The education is based on problematic projects, coaching tutorials, discussions, presentations, literature seminars, lectures and excursions.

Learning OutcomeSpecifically - deeper critical studies in relevant concepts (as differentiation, pluralism, movement, gravitation, narrativity, specificity, temporality, ma, oku, privacy, directed sequences) – provides the students with knowledge and design experiences in order to develop their ability to reflect and use their minds in their design process. Our ambition is to learn the students how to create methods to analyze existing problems as a foundation for developing their own artistic and specific architectural voice, designing excellent projects with strong communicating concepts.

Courses4:1 (A42G1B) and 5:1 (A52G1B) Artistic Interdisciplinary Tools and Methods: Art Center – SandhamnThe students will study and use different artistic interdisciplinary tools and methods in order to develop architectural projects for a new Art Center in Sandhamn. Through deeper studies in different contemporary artistic disciplines (film, literature, dance, music, art) and discourses of immediate importance – the foundations of design theory and practise will be questioned and furthered. The students will study and use different artistic interdisciplinary tools and methods in order to develop architectural projects for a new Center for Art in Sandhamn; a beautifully located island in the archipelago some two hours by boat from Stockholm. What is the function and meaning of an Art Space today? Who are running the Art Centers and for what different reasons? Important to discuss is how to relate to the existing nature, buildings and context.

4:2 (A42G2B) and 5:2 (A52G2B) Architectural Conceptions – SPLITBy re-defining contemporary interpretations of different architectural conceptions, the students will use this investigation in the design process of architectural projects in a dynamic context with huge potential in big need for new strategies; Split on the Dalmatian Coast. The old city of Split is beautifully located on a peninsula, linking the Adriatic islands. The city has a long history with lots of important archaeological treasures from the old Roman Empire. It was partly destroyed by bombs in the end of WW2. During the Yugoslavian years – the area was industrialized and became very vital and important. The site is located inside the oldest part of Split – the Diocletian´s Palace built by the Romans 1.700 years ago. In general the city is reprogramming from industry, harbour and military areas into new hybrid typologies and design for tourism, trade and education. The programme for the site is mixed use – housing and a public building (small Theatre). Excursion to Split last week in October.

4:3 (A42G3B) Specificity in Architecture (Narrative design I) A House for an Extremely Unique PersonHow could the conception of narrativity be transformed into very specific architectural expressions in a tectonic project (a building for an extremely unique person or function in an urban context)? Studies and discussions of narrativity and different theories. Architectural case studies. Development of individual project design. The project programme will be developed for a specific artistic person with a specific personality and extensive history - in Stockholm (or in another city). There will be some alternatives provided (authors, poets, artists, film directors, choreographers, musicians...) but it´s also possible to choose other alternatives and urban contexts. The brief should include a house/apartment with a garden, a working space for the artist and other odd things. As an alternative it could include other programmes or functions. Study trip to Japan in March/April 2012 (preliminary)

4:4 (A42G4B) Differentiation in Urban Design (Narrative design II)A Zen Buddhism Temple in an urban context. In this architectural urban context project, we will study how narrativity and differentiation could be used in order to develop a multitude of specific architectural and urban expressions. Studies and discussions of narrativity and differentiation. Urban and architectural case studies. Development of individual project design – a Zen Buddhism Temple in an urban context. Study trip to Japan in March/April 2012 (preliminary).

Diploma Project (5th year Students)The first two projects in the autumn provide a common field of interest and a level of ambition for the diploma project. The diploma project is a further opportunity to respond to the issues raised. The course structure for the spring will be developed in dialogue with the students during the autumn. The aim is to keep a common ground for all diploma projects, whether it is a thematic issue, a site or a programme. The Diploma Projects will be supervised by Leif Brodersen and Teres Selberg.

Studio CultureOur ambition is to learn the students how to create methods to analyze existing problems asa foundation for developing their own artistic and specific architectural voice, making designwith strong communicating concepts. The Studio Culture is based on coaching tutorials, presentations, seminars, lectures and excursions. It has become a tradition to swim in the river wherever we go. First Canal Grande in Venice, then the Zagreb river (a swim excursion that ended in the hospital due to dangerous glass pieces) and last year in Zadar by the Adriatic Sea. Last Autumn we made investigations of the Zadar Area in Croatia. Some of the student´s innovative project will be adopted by the City Planning Office. This Autumn we will also offer our students to take part in an exclusive international workshop for architecture and urbanism – IWAU, in Wroclaw (6-11 November).

Tutors, Teachers, Professors• Ass. Professor Leif Brodersen is a partner in A1 Arkitekter AB, Stockholm – an office with

12 employed architects working with interiors, housing, offices and urban design. The design research in the office could be described as an investigation of differentiation and diversity; Division – making differences within something earlier unified; Indifference in opposition to difference.

• Affilliated Professor Helena Paver Njiric, Paver Njiric Architects, Zagreb – are one of Croatia´smost well known architect offices. They work with exhibitions (Croatian pavilion in the Biennale in Venice) shopping areas, offices and housing. The office is searching for a personal specific architecture (published in El Croquis a o). She will be heading the Split project.

• Architect SAR/MSA Teres Selberg works in the field in between architecture, art and dance. She is running her own office in Stockholm.

• Architect SAR/MSA Per Elde will take part during the Spring semester. He has been heading the first Year within the KTH School of Architecture for a long period.

The Studio will also be connected to some very interesting architects and guest teachers during the Year:• Juan Herreros, Herreros Architects, Madrid – will take part in a workshop/critic in the Autumn,

and telling more about the development of the new Munch Museum in Oslo.• Sou Fujimoto, Fujimoto Architects, Tokyo – will be hosting us in the excursion to Tokyo. Some

of our students have worked in his office as a part of the Studio.• Teachers from CEU in Valencia and the Technical University of Wroclaw will take part in the

optional IWAU-workshop in Wroclaw in November.
