  1. 6. Japanska rum – en diskussion kring tomhet och föränderlighet i traditionell och nutida japansk arkitektur

    Författare :Kristina Fridh; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; sukiya architecture; Kazuyo Sejima; conceptions of space; Waro Kishi; Japanese architecture;

    Sammanfattning : Traditional and contemporary Japanese architecture is examined, with focus on the characteristics of emptiness and changeability, the point of departure being Japanese conceptions of space which are interpreted and described from a Western perspective. According to Japanese cultural tradition space is conceived as a subjective perception, a physical experience and a changeable process. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Taming the Erratic : Representation and materialization in post-digital architectural design

    Författare :Daniel Norell; Timothy Anstey; Ulrika Karlsson; Fredrik Nilsson; Claus Peder Pedersen; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Representation; Materialization; Post-digital; Material simulation; Chunk; Arkitektur; Architecture;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates materialization and representation in contemporary architectural design practice. Due to cultural and technological shifts, the act of design is no longer squarely located in the abstract realms of drawings or digital geometries. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Geometry linking the art of building and the Universe: Geometric patterns on shells and grid shells

    Författare :Emil Adiels; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Form finding; Differential Geometry; Conceptual design; Geometry; Shell; Engineering; Masonry; Craftsmanship; Grid shell; Architecture; Structural design;

    Sammanfattning : Geometry links the art of building and the physics of space-time. Mathematical breakthroughs in geometry have led to new ways of designing our structures and our ability to visualise and describe the world, phenomena in nature and the universe. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Prestress in Nature and Technics

    Författare :Alexander Sehlström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Geometrical stiffness; Prestress; Form finding; Architecture; Structural design; Stress pattern; Engineering; Conceptual design;

    Sammanfattning : To direct the forces of nature is a central task in the creation of spaces and load-carrying structures for architecture. This research investigates how prestress can be used as a design tool for the creation of material efficient and well-functioning structures, and in early design stages contribute to sustainable, functional and beautiful architecture.

  7. 10. Attractiveness in Urban Design : A study of the production of attractive places

    Författare :Erik Hidman; Kristina L. Nilsson; Björn Ekelund; Anna-Johanna Klasander; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; attractiveness; urban design; urban critical studies; production of space; Architecture; Arkitektur;

    Sammanfattning : This research project investigates the production of attractive places, through theory form and everyday life. The research study was originally sprung from practical questions regarding the extensive use of the term attractiveness in urban planning and design. LÄS MER
