Om emnet

Elemental Concepts for the Subarctic City 2017, 1st. year master, Tromsø

Blue-green-white infrastructure

The studio will investigate how to develop an understanding of nature as infrastructure in the urban context of Tromsø. How can the need for management of urban storm water, sea level rise, waterways and snow storage become spatial resources for city life in the Subarctic city. What is the potential for this to become a multi-layered infrastructure and an integral part of the Subarctic city enhancing its identity?  The pressure for densification of urban areas to minimize transport and exploitation of unbuilt land, accentuates the challenges related to water/snow and the studio seeks to challenge this by investigating how the need for snowspace can release opportunities for the subarctic city. 

While the programme takes the Arctic as its laboratory, the knowledge and know-how it produces aims to have valuable transference value to a more general range of landscapes facing climate and industrial change that affects the urban settlements.

Læringsutbytte

Knowledge:
The studio aims to give the students knowledge about landscape ecology, climate and hydrology in an urban context, with special focus on sub-arctic conditions included the northern social and political context for the practise of landscape architecture. Local knowledge and site-specific project work will provide and produce knowledge especially on water and snow in relation to spatial conditions in the city.

Skills:
The studio seeks to develop the students’ ability to harvest knowledge and develop their sensitivity to input from site, science and culture as well as the specific social and urban context. The studio aims at training the skill to make this knowledge instrumental to the development of strong concepts and design proposals with artistic quality. The studio will work with drawing/sketching, digital tools, physical models and presentation/communication of ideas/designs.

General competence:
The students are expected to learn how to use their knowledge and skills to conceptualize, coordinate and execute integral designs rooted in the specific local context and the knowledge of human-made and natural systems with special awareness of water and snow as spatial agents in the subarctic urban context. The studio aims to develop an awareness and critical reflection on topics that contribute to the general professional and public discourse and to position their work in relation to this.

Praktisk organisering og arbeidsmåter

The students will work with chosen localities in Tromsø in relation to the themes described above. The studio will work with models, mapping, visualization tools and design development. The students will be involved in on-site field investigations at localities in Tromsø and will be required to extensively walk the site. This field-work will also include collaboration with stormwater experts in the municipality as well as scientists at the University of Tromsø.

Field trip: Oulu or Kiruna

Other modules:

August: 10 days Finnmark county traverse: landscapes, biological laboratories, settlements and cities

Workshops:

  • Applied climate knowledge
  • Urban stormwater/ecology
  • Model/illustration/visualisation techniques
