Master thesis project in landscape architecture Nyhamnen

This collaboration with Tove Skagerlind explores an unconventional and extended approach to site-specificity for postindustrial harbor transformation, applied to the design of public space, in order to achieve a more resilient and dynamic coastal city. For the purpose of practical application, a conceptual design proposal for a site in Nyhamnen, Malmö is presented. In light of growing issues of urbanization, city densification, and climate change, the need for reevaluation of conventional methods within city development is a significant matter. Nyhamnen is on the cusp of change, from an industrial harbor to a new urban district, which is outlined in the comprehensive plan. Qualities and features, that are typically disregarded, are brought to light and form the basis of the design concept. The theoretical backbone of this project relies on three overarching concepts: radicant design, resilience, and public space.
