Introduction

Foreword During the autumn term of 2016, the students at Lund University, School of Architecture participated in the advanced course ‘Sustainable Urban Recycling’ (ASBN 02) and its complementary theory course ‘Urban Recycling - Theory and Methods’ (ASBN 06) focused on re-thinking the LTH Campus area.

The aim of the design course was to develop the students’ skills in designing strategic visions for sustainable built environments through the process of urban transformation.

The theme was explored throughout the semester in seminars, guest lectures, and project tutorials with the goal that each student presents a site specific proposal for sustainable transformation of the LTH Campus area in Lund, Sweden.

As part of the course and design process, the class was involved in a five days study workshop in Amsterdam, Netherlands, where the students explored possibilities of adapting, transforming and developing urban areas in a sustainable way.

Throughout the studio-based course, the students were encouraged to engage in exploring various aspects of sustainability; identifying site problems and potentials, and suggesting opportunities for refining urban components. They were guided to find their own meaning in the terms ‘recycling’ and ‘sustainability’ when re-designing the LTH Campus. The design intention was to integrate a comprehensive strategy and design guidelines and tools for transforming the campus into a sustainable urban structure that promotes attractiveness for the every day’s life of students, visitors and local residents.

The design process was separated into several parts; analysis, strategy and individual design, combing both the group and individual work of the students.

The design studio resulted in 38 unique projects in which students challenged conventional ideas and tools of sustainability, preparing and supporting the process of urban transformation in LTH Campus. The following pages are a summary and overview of the

course structure and brief presentation of each of the students design proposals.

Introduction

Course Outline Sustainable Urban Recycling The aim of the design course Sustainable Urban Recycling is to develop the students’ skills in designing strategic visions for sustainable built urban structures with reference to current international trends regarding processes of urban transformation. This is primarily achieved by the students, carrying out an advanced design assignment. In parallel the students have to describe, analyze and evaluate urban structures, contexts and development strategies from architectural, ecological, humanist and socio-economic perspectives.

This course emphasizes street oriented development, which provides access to shops, service and residential dwellings from typical streets, pathways or sidewalks. Street oriented urban design focuses on mixed-use development and a pedestrian-friendly network that is well-connected to surrounding urban areas. Sharing the same public spaces contributes to a sense of identity, belonging and safety.

The students focused on analyzing urban life, urban recycling and urban networks within their site. The aim of the design project was to investigate, interpret and develop their chosen site from a well defined area into an integrated part of the city.

The design task for this semester was redeveloping the LTH Campus, an important driver for Lund municipality development plan. The students used four themes: Connect, Generate, Mix and Share as a guiding process. The vision is that the life in the LTH Campus should

include all the aspects of a sustainable city.

Design Site LTH Campus, Lund, Sweden The LTH Campus is a future link between Brunnshรถg and the centre of Lund. The LTH area is an important driver for Lund municipality development plan. A light rail, connecting the campus with the rest of the Lund and Brunnshรถg, will run through the project site as well as the knowledge spine which links the different university campuses to the new Science Village. All these aspects give the site a unique opportunity to develop into an attractive and living part of Lund with a specific character and identity as well as to become a leading

Introduction

Working Process Course Structure: The semester was divided into 3 work phases: Analysis, Strategy and Individual Design. The working process was finalized with the final presentations on December 6, 7, 2016, where students individual presented their work to invited proffesionals. The very last part for the students was to improve and reflect upon their work after the presentation. This structure allowed for students to focus on specific components of their project and design process as well as to get feedback on a consistent basis, while working both in groups and individually.

The first weeks of the semester consisted in group work, where teams of students analyzed different components of the Lund’s cityscape. In the next phase students took the base analysis and developed a sustainable strategy for how the city might be developed with the new tram line from the city center up to Brunnshög in the north. The following phase of the semester focused on individual work, when each student translated the larger scale visions into specific designs of the LTH Campus area. In this final stage the students developed their design further, illustrating how their design contibutes to a healthier, sustainable and lively Lund.

During the first half of the semester the studio went on a studytrip to Amsterdam. There the students gained insight into how the city has regenerated old industrial areas and how the layers of time have formed the city.

Each work stage ended with student presentations to a jury that examined their progress who helped to push their work forward. With the guest critics comments and the weekly tutorials, each student work grew in depth and detail in an attempt to tackle the challenges posed by the course requirements.

Introduction

Phase 1: Analysis The first assignment of the Design Project was an analytical exercise. For three weeks the students engaged in group work and critically investigated the study area in order to gain an understanding of the design site. The main focus was to explore how the site is connected to the rest of the city, what are the main issues and potentials and how the transformation of the site can contribute the ongoing development of Lund.

By looking at the city structure in multiple scales and through different angles the students explored the physical, social, ecological and economic aspects of the are. They identified key spaces within the site, analysed and evaluated the problems and potentials for sustainable development.

The students mapped key urban flows, meeting points, functional nodes, landscape elements, etc. The importance of the site’s location on the future tram link was an important aspect of the whole analysis process.

The focus of students’ analysis was to identify potential sustainability strategies and/or questions that could be raised in relation to their design site, the LTH Campus. The outcome

Introduction

Phase 2: Sustainable Strategy Today, the campus is characterized by vast green areas rather than spatial connections.

When reclaiming an existing site, it is important to create a dense urban network that joins the districts of the city together. How can existing barriers be broken down and create new passages, new structures of mobility and new patterns of movement? What role can the LTHCampus gain in the movement structure of Lund?

Attractive urban settings are characterized by their diversity in people, buildings, flows and activities. What is needed to make the north of Lund a versatile, poly-contextual and therefore a new genuine urban area in the city?

The key words for the phase of sustainable strategy were: Connect, Generate, Mix and Share.

Connect

When developing the LTH-Campus the students transformed existing infrastructure into an urban network that joins the city. Discovering ways to break down existing barriers and creating new passages.

The students introduced new structures of mobility and new patterns of movement that will bring new people to live, work or visit the area.

Generate

The students were asked to consider what is needed in order to create places and spaces that attract people from the different parts of the city. Exploring and developing innovative ways to reclaim the LTHCampus by opening-up spaces and possibilities for generators. The generators can be a building, an event, a temporary intervention, a new spatial condition or any other ways of coming and being together. This will expand the cultural and recreational landscape, and contribute to a more united city.

Mix and Share

Sustainable Urban Recycling

By developing urban forms that support, diversify or enrich the programming in and around the LTHCampus. Mix refers to the overall aim of creating urban areas with new urban experiences in Lund. The perspective of developing the LTH-Campus brings with it a re-evaluation of the crossed districts and opens-up possibilities for the introduction of a mix of activities, a mix of functions and a mix of uses that leads to a mix of people sharing cultures, atmospheres and ways of living. Introducing new activities along the tram line will lead to a transformation of the surrounding districts.

Introduction

Study Trip Amsterdam, The Netherlands This semester the students traveled to Amsterdam and got inspired from the different qualities of the city’s urban landscape and its specific way of dealing with sustainability.

During the study trip the students gained insight into the Dutch experience of working with urban recycling through visiting a number of relevant urban design projects and from having lecture from the local urban designers. The observations and knowledge from the study visits became a platform for their discussions. The students were asked to analyze, evaluate and describe urban areas that inspired them for their future work.

The most important question discussed during the trip were: How the layers of time have formed special qualities in the city? How places are shaped and how they work with everyday life? How does mixing different urban elements and details create the diversity of Amsterdam today? How to adapt city to the future challenges of the climate change? How to propose new urban areas which would promote social and economic sustainability? How to accommodate the sustainable means of transportation in an existing

urban environment? What is the “right� density in the city and why does density matter?

Introduction

Biodiversity Workshop Building birds’ nests The students of Urban Recycling took part in a one day workshop of building bird, bat and insect nests to promote biodiversity in the campus area. The workshop was a part of “Artrikare campus”, which is a collaboration project between Lund University, the municipality of Lund and Akademiska Hus.

The nests which students designed and built themselves in the wood workshop were later placed by Akademiska Hus in the specific places around the campus along with the other elements such as big trunks (dead wood) for the insect-fauna.

After spending one day designing and working in the wood workshop, the students build more than 35 different bird, insect and bat boxes to accomodate a diverse group of urban nesting species. The nests can be found around the campus.

The aim was not only to increase the biodiversity but also to broadcast the significance of biodiversity in our cities to the public. Thus the location of every nesting box was marked on a map and made available to find on the project web page. The synergy effect of the project has the possibility to attract more people to the campus area and promote new meeting and social spaces for visitors, while enriching the natural ecosystem of the campus.

Projects

The aim of the Individual part of the Design Project is to tell a holistic story and design a detailed plan for development in their site.

The students developed the ideas based on the previous phases of analysis and strategy and turn them into a concrete proposals. The issues and potentials that were identified are turned into a physical spaces, given real dimensions and performance. This is the student’s final step in their design process towards the holistic proposal of the future transformation of the LTH Campus.

The life in the proposal site area should include all the aspects of a sustainable city. The overall aim was to create a new urban spaces with new urban experiences in Lund. It should be a place where we live, work, relax and enjoy. It is a place where people grow and can unfold their lives to their full potential.

Quality of living is having, nurturing and keeping relations with other people. In their own individual way, places are created by our actions and activities and this is dependent on how people feel connected to each other.

The following pages illustrate the students proposals and visions for the LTH area. It is our hope that all of the students hard work and energy can inspire you as much as it has inspired

AXONOMETRIC DETAIL OF HOUSING TYPOLOGY

“The LTH area is going to be a place from all day and night.�

My project is focused on the experience of being in the space and how its users can interact with their surroundings .

Sustainable Urban Recycling

As we have observed from the analysis part, the main issue the LTH Campus is dealing with is the monofunctionality of the area . In the global context of densification, I propose a densification around the existing core and to enhance its existing qualities as to transform it into an urban park that includes the university buildings.

24

The new additions will consist of rezindential areas of low and high density , office buildings, commercial spaces and service spaces, as well as a public buildings. The northen area is to be community orientated whereas the southern part is going to be focused on diversity.

In order to support my idea of the users experience , I paid special attention to the streets and paths that cross the area and, as a result, the area has

different typologies that aim to make the simple act of walking or sitting in a space enjoyable. Another aspect that I considered would help this cause is the dispersing of different types of small scale pavilions that encourage interactions between users.

DETAIL PLAN

“The solution is in providing the real diversity.”

Sustainable Urban Recycling

This project answers to the problem of how to make LTH campus an attractive space for the public. The solution is in providing mixed use and entertainment, microclimate adaptation and weather protection, accessibility, integration, interaction, and cultural presence.

26

Mixed use is provided through facilities including: a food square, indoors and outdoors water park, cultural center, open gallery, Sports Park, and several public spaces. The project also introduces two main arteries throughout the campus, one for pedestrians and bicycles, and the other is the tramway. The space with mixed use will include: housing,

recreation, culture, galleries, university; to makes LTH campus accessible and usable to more than just students.

The project provides solutions for adapting to tough winter weather. These are elements allowing people to play with rain and snow, while also being protected. Light structure buildings and windbreaks will make green areas accessible on more days.

Accessibility includes enhancing slopes of ramps from 1:12 to 1:20 around the lake area, to accommodate for the handicapped, while also providing handrails on some walkways adjacent to the lake.

Two categories of people the project seeks to integrate at LTH are the elders (through spaces where they can practice gardening, creating a more durable link for them to the space), and Syrian refugees (the waterwheel of Hama, Syria, replicated on a smaller

scale at LTH as a reminder of good memories and expressing their culture).

Facilities provided by the project invites integration of more than these two categories of people.

People who share same interests will have an infrastructure to allow networking, through communication technology.

Diversity through interaction: “memories wall”, where people can leave their thoughts and memories in graffiti, creating relations between the user and the space, when users leave some things that belong to them, and thus become encouraged to come back.

Diversity of the people on campus inspires having different pieces of art from different cultures at the space, and using different languages for street signs.

“It is important to not limit the process of creativity by having everything set from the beginning”

By framing the campus with new buildings the park will be defined with clear boundaries. Woodland is something which is rare in the area and by having many trees in this place will create a feeling of a woodland oasis.

An oasis who shows a little bit how the landscape of Scania looked like before the agrar culture.

Sustainable Urban Recycling

By having activities and liveliness going on in the campus, people from different back grounds will find their way to the campus and take part of it. The type of activites shall be easy to practice with no advanced equipment required.

28

As the trees grows, urban qualities will occur which might be unknown on forehand. It is important to take advantage of these qualites and improve them. Trees will create different spatialities durings its ever changing life. It isimportant to not limit the process of creativity by having all set from the beginning.

The Campus Woodland Park is supposed to adress every target groups of the society. The jogging track is connecting the whole campus and promotes exercising. By having much spots lights in the campus will increase the feeling of security.

Due to the flat roofs of the new buidlings, there is oppurtunity for things to happen up on them. It could be green houses which is administrated by its dwellers or even roof terraces.

CREEK LANDSCAPE WITH WALKING TRACK AND URBAN FARMING

“The design of neighbourhoods and places plays a key role in the health of people and the quality of the environment.”

A healthy place is one of the benchmarks of good design and offers many benefits within both a human and environmental dimension. The future wellbeing and vibrancy of the campus at LTH is of vital importance when considering the growth and development of Lund in the next 20 years.

Sustainable Urban Recycling

My design for the LTH campus is based around the following 5 strategies:

30

• • • • •

A walkable, cyclable and safe place A place of recreation and relaxation A social place A pleasant place to be A biodiverse place

These strategies are represented on the ground in many forms. For example, the area will have a comprehensive network of paths that link the ‘green’ and ‘blue’ places whilst promoting movement by foot and bicycle. People will be encouraged to be active and outdoors on a more regular basis. The

development will include a mix of uses such as student and family housing, retail, commercial, business and new university buildings. The area will be well connected to central Lund and the new area to the north-east at Brunnshög with the new tramway and cycle paths.

The community spirit will be underpinned by initiatives such as urban farming and programs that involve the public and students together. The variety of public spaces within the campus cater towards a more diverse group of people that live, work and study in the area.

It is hoped that the design and function of this campus/neighbourhood fights back against rising levels of obesity and stress related mental health issues that threaten to plague our society.

WATER TREATMENT AT THE CAMPUS

““[...]inviting the elderly, the start up companies and the refugees[...]”

We should look upon the LTH campus as an area of opportunities to create a new, adventorous and rather unorthodox, type of urban fabric.

A first key step is linking the LTH area towards IDEON; healing the north-south connection east of the campus leading up to Norra Fäladen.

Sustainable Urban Recycling

This is could be done by inviting the elderly, the start up companies and the refugees as well as the students into a specific typology house connected to urban farming.

32

The re-development of the campus starts with these groups and houses, and it nurtures the growth of a mixed-use campus.

Therefore the central part of the campus can be redesigned by extensions of Kårhuset and studiecentrum along with the construction of a public Kårhus; where Komvux and SFI

can be re-housed. This central area of the campus will therefore truly become a node of knowledge and exchange, and should consequently cater for public spaces with various characters: for example a cherry garden and an arbor area for the new food court, located at the center.

These multiple qualities will function as generators to open up the campus towards the rest of the city and the Öresund region as a whole; making the campus mixed-use by a broad range of people.

The way LTH campus is organized today keeps students separated; the functions they need are located within the same building as their department. Vegetation and the direction the buildings are facing adds more separation and creates strong barriers. Relocating functions to the center of the campus would necessitate the students getting out now and then, which would benefit them from a health perspective. It would also give them an opportunity to meet students from other departments. These augmented breaks would favor iterative work flows, usually recommended for innovation and creativity.

The Øresund region is constantly growing in popularity and the demand for housing and other facilities follows.

With this in mind a densification design is proposed. The city centre of Lund, where people live and work closely, inspired this design. Most would find the city centre pleasant and agreeable.

It is in human scale and dense but still

accessible and provides all necessary services.

Why not create a similar city feel with clear street hierarchies and active ground floors based on sunlight, rather than monotone blocks, just a few tram stops away? Not only would that give the area the attention it deserves, but it would also mean that densification outside Lund on Sweden’s most fertile soil could be avoided.

Sustainable Urban Recycling

“Lets get our hands dirty.�

40

In modern times a lot of us have lost the physical connection we used to have with the world around us, prefering to spend our leisure time in a more sedentary way. Hands-On is a small effort to encourage people to get working with their hands again, either through widespread urban agriculture or by partaking in the creative process in one of our public workshops.

The urban agriculture in Hands-On is split into three scales. Small plots on ground level for everyone to enjoy, greenhouses on top of dwellings and industrial scale vertical farming situated in a tower in the Heartland. The workshops contain different activities that are tied to the LTH faculties they neighbour, to make a small effort to create a more inviting LTH. Rainfall is something that if ignored that create expensive problems, but it can also be a great asset. Not only can it increase the attractiveness and biodiversity of an

area, it is also a resource we can harvest.

In that spirit Hands-On is divided into four water zones that each contain an anchor in which excess water will be brought back into the system and reused. In addition, the neighbourhood courtyards contain a raingarden that filters and reuses the water on site.

Exploring The Limits Of Densification David Jones, Sweden/UK

“I belive people need people, close, so friction happens!�

Within my project i wanted to test and explore the limits of densification with the classical quarter as a typology to achieve this.

The issues the LTH campus area are facing today is the lack of definition of space, pathfinding is not clear and as a newcomer it is not clear how to get from A-B. Another issue is the areas monofunctionality where academic and related science institutions dominate.

together, where people live, work and play.

I did a rationalisation of the green-spaces where only the most important corridors were kept and qualified like the greenblue stretch which is only at places 10m wide, but with its terraces facing the stormwater terraces will provide much more than the existing green-spaces.

Sustainable Urban Recycling

A followup issue that comes out of this is the lack of activation in the public spaces outside working hours and even summertime when students are of.

42

A question im asking myself time and time again is: Do we really need all of this green open empty spaces? What are they used for? Who uses them? Why are we afraid of having people close?

My strategy is based on the agriculture history of LTH Campus. LTH is the most diverse district in Lund. But different stakeholders often have a hard time to socialize which makes it difficult to create interactive and cohesive communities. I am focusing on the social cycle that should increase everyday happiness in the campus by promoting large and small communities across social resources, generations, sex and race.

that I added in the park are community greenhouses. They are in a form of pavilions which aside from growing food, they will act as new study rooms and exhibition areas.

I ‘m also dealing with water management and I am creating landscaped channels in the campus where the water thus will be a visible feature in the cityscape while contributing to irrigation and improving the local microclimate, and it will create a series of new, blue-green public spaces.

The strategy will involve three phases of work: 1- The first phase is to connect LTH to Lund C through the future tramline and creating 4 new squares at the entrances of the campus. I am densifying around the new tram stops by proposing two new public buildings.

3- The final stage deals with generating new housing typologies around the campus which will convert the area into small communities. I am changing the old buildings from homogeneous function to a more heterogeneous one with multi-function and I am opening up the entire ground floor for a variety of small mixed public uses.

2- In the second stage of my project, I am focusing on the campus park itself by activating it along the main pedestrian spine. The most important features

“Vegetal clusters together with new building complexes will

provide the site’s identity”

46

Lund city is characterized by the university and its green areas. The university campus should therefore reflect those characteristics and enforce them as the years pass and Lund is urbanized.

Outdoor meeting places and pavilions around the area also support social activities and events, something that campus lacks now. Housing units are also placed around the campus to work as generators of life after school hours.

The aim of my proposal is to enhance and celebrate these characteristics and make LTH interact with the rest of the city, by introducing the idea of densifying with both building structure and vegetal clusters and as a result this combination will provide the site’s identity of interactive knowledge and nature. Because of the new tram line, LTH will become both a destination and a dispersal, so people passing by should be able to see things happening there and feel welcome to join.

Regarding the vegetation clusters, when nature takes over, it can produce density and amazing spaces for users to interact with it, providing a system that changes constantly. By letting the existing vegetation clusters grow in size and number, and adding areas of storm water management like wetlands, the biodiversity will reach its peak after only a few years, making the LTH campus being viewed as a role model for the city of Lund.

In my proposal, additional spaces are put on the existing buildings along the main flows, hosting uses like exhibition halls, research laboratories, study places, acting as generators of social activity.

The main focus of this project is on environmental sustainability and efficient mobility. Further, it aims to create a diverse ambience in the campus, in terms of building uses and social contact. In order to achieve so, special design patterns have been selected, such as the densification of the northern part of the campus (mainly with accommodation buildings); the spatial recycling of idling spaces at the eastern part of the study area; the extensive use of stormwater management systems, such as raingardens and constructed wetlands; the establishment of an integrated urban food system that constists of greenhouses, woodland areas and a food market; the placement of community gardens at the edges of the area, so that a better adaption to its physical context could be achieved, in a socially mixed way.

Specifically, one of the most important aspects of the project is the reinforcement of a type of shared

street, the woonerf, which targets to deter car usage in the campus. Also, roof “greening” elements have been used and suggested throughout the design process, which along with the microclimate design of the majority of the buildings, could work wonders towards a resilient and sustainable future for the LTH Campus. All in all, a great variety of built, natural and living elements is clearly implied by the choice of design in this case.

MASTERPLAN SHOWING INNER AND OUTER CIRCLE WITH ADDITIONS, GATES, ENTRANCES AND PASSAGES

“My main goal is to make the area more open, socially and spatially!�

LTH campus is today a university area in the middle of the future knowledge link running through Lund. Today the functions and building structure in campus shuts out the surroundings which gives an impression of campus as a bubble were only students move.

Sustainable Urban Recycling

The project therefore aims to break this imaginary bubble in order to make campus more open, socially and spatially, in order to reach a more sustainable campus.

52

Sustainability can aim for many different things and in this case the main focus is on peoples well-being within its surroundings and also the need to take advantage of existing and maintain it to leave the smallest as possible footprint on our planet.

The solution is additions, such as; buildings, functions, different public rooms (indoor/outdoor, calm/vivid).

These additions will facilitate to use

the campus in a sustainable way. For example, by social interaction such as meet and see people that use campus in different ways, activities and functions that create an increased movement trough campus in order to get a break from everyday life, move and get fresh air will enhance peoples well-being.

The additions will be added in two focus areas. This is the inner and the outer circle that will be punctured with different additions in order to link LTH campus socially and spatially to surrounding Lund.

“Making LTH bigger by making it smaller. Erasing boundaries!”

After an initial analysis of the campus the main issues identified were the lack of personalisation, interest and comfort.

The homogenous green spaces within the campus though beautiful has no identity or interest.

Sustainable Urban Recycling

The proposal is a three phase intervention of connecting, generating and densification. By redirecting the people to the Kårhuset “square” and allowing human flow along the common heart of the campus creating numerous generating spaces powered by urban farming.

54

Then comes the densification stages of the design where providing mixed use buildings are planning to allow a harmonious community co-existence in the space. The common issue tackled here was activating the secondary and tertiary streets which are either activated by restaurants and cafes or activated with landscape and playgrounds to promote eyes on the street.

The core idea of LTH is to maintain the identity of the LTH in the building scale while maintaining the interventions on a human scale to provide invitation to students and people of Lund.

A green belt and planned densification within the campus helps to achieve these goals.

My project is focused on making the campus as inviting as possible for both students and other residents of Lund as well as visitors. By densifying around the green spine, which goes through the area from north to south, creates a defined line around the greenery which makes the room more comfortable to stay in. The topography allows for a natural flow of stormwater running along the green spine in canals creating a great recreational park.

The tram stops creates great opportunities for public squares with a natural flow of people. My strategy for these public places in the campus area is for the residents to create their own space for social and spontaneous activities such as moveable boxes to make your own furniture, sharing sheds to use as greenhouses or bike-mending stations or play a game of chess with big sized chess-pieces.

The densification also defines the paths and roads leading through the area, which along with the removal of huge vegetations in front of the buildings makes the area easier to navigate within.

Studies have shown a positive correlation between proximity to a variety of greenspace and increased physical activity, health and a lower body mass index (BMI) among tenants, which in turn leeds to fewer days away from work, economical benefits for companies and society, as well as a longer-living, healthier population. What if new sustainable neighbourhoods containing these particular greenspace qualities could be financed as a pre-emptive measure, both as a way to lower costs in the public health-care sector as well as a booster for productivity? This could then by extension also benefit the ecosystem of the city of Lund, by providing habitat for different species of birds and insects, and by connecting the clustered zones of habitation that already exist with a connecting migration corridor.

The vision of this project is to use LTH as a recreational area for a greater part of Lund by providing connections and developing LTH in a sustainable way.

An active trail, offering new housing developments which each capitalizes on a particular greenspace quality; each having public green spaces with recreational activities connected to these different greenspace qualities; will connect the LTH area to surrounding neighbourhoods, thus bridging the mental distance to LTH. Runners, flaneurs and everybody else will be able to enjoy a 10 k trek from S:t Hans backar, through the new sustainable neighbourhoods of LTH, all the way to Stadsparken!

A wetland neighbourhood, harvesting rain water and using it for public, recreational functions such as a microbrewery and a bath-house is the main feature of this Neighbourwood. Also, a new housing typology is planned for this part of LTH.

The LTH Campus is already a green and varied area, with decent biodiversity, lakes and a distinct architecture. As such, the development of the campus focuses not on uncontrolled building within the heart but on a mixture of new commercial and residential structures to the edges, the retention of the existing Sjön Sjön and a series of new interventions to bring more life to the campus.

The most visible of these are a trio of geometric spaces, acting as new nodes. The most striking is the circle at Kårhuset, a sunken sports court bound by a walled water channel that is seating at the above level. This fits with a wider theme focusing on water structure, particularly to the north and centre of the campus. An added wetland lake system acts as a floodplain as needed, also fed by collected rainwater and greywater with bioremediation occurring. This contributes to a biodiverse campus.

Further biodiversity is added with

extensive planting, landscaping and provision for urban farming, beekeeping and other such initiatives.

Life is also brought via a series of human scale interventions. This intervention strategy includes study/leisure spaces, greenhouses, exhibits, performances, sculptures, fountains, campfires, etc.

They are adjusted and replaced over time based on usage and demand, interacting with elevation via trees and topographic features such as causeways at the wetlands. The pinnacle of this plan is the exhibition hall at LTH/Ideon, designed to showcase the best of the university’s research and student projects, as well as small businesses from Ideon. This improves social sustainability and mobility, inspiring people who wouldn’t have considered education to train and study.

“Make LTH into something new, using already existing qualities to revitalize the area for the

Sustainable Urban Recycling

future.”

64

The LTH area today has some issues with segregation as well as momofuncional and underused green areas. But this doesn’t have to be the case!

INSIDE of the buildings at LTH and the ecology/biology institutions there is great amounts of knowledge. This is something that, if made available to the public, could act as a significant generator in the area. My proposal includes the establishment of two educational activity centres: One that exposes the engineering of LTH and one that, in combination with the new urban wilderness, teaches the public about ecology.

Both of these visitor centres also contribute to making Lund University more integrated in the long run, acting as places where children from all backgrounds can visit and grow an interest in science, which eventually will contribute to a more diverse group of people applying to LTH and LU.

Historically, UNDER the urban fabric, and to a certain extent around the ecology and biology buildings, there is a great potential for the area to become an important addition to the green structure of Lund. One of the strongest qualities of LTH today is that it is a very green area, which is something that I intend to enhance. This will happen through the establishment of a wetland, and though letting the lawns grow into meadows as well as on a longer timespan significantly increasing the number of trees, bushes and shrubs. This will serve as a means of densification in addition to the proposed new housing, and as a way of integrating the area into the green structure of Lund.

The project is based on the Knowledge Corridor, proposed tram line between Lund C and ESS. Thanks to this new transport connection the LTH Campus will become more active. Even though the tram line gives an opportunity to densify and build an attractive district, the natural genius loci must be kept.

The concept is based on a combination of an urban spine (Sölvegatan tram street) and park spine. This idea is also led by microclimate, biodiversity and urban blue theme. The development will be low-rise and high-dense, many new gardens and characteristic wetland will be created and rain water will be harvested and used.

Most of the new development will be concentrated around Sölvegatan tram.

There will be mixed use buildings with public or commercial ground floor.

Prevailing functional uses of them will be housing, dorms, public buildings and retail, technology and research.

A part of current park areas will be filled with new development and the rest will be enhanced with special educative or entertaining gardens. For example a sensory garden, feng-shui, colour gardens, a relaxing, a herbal, a forest, stone garden etc. Proposed (urban) greenhouses can be used for university biological research same as to attract people and represent the LTH.

“To make the LTH campus more alive, more organism like.�

The main aim of the proposal it to make the LTH campus more alive, more organism like. In order to bring it to life I establish three strategies that respond to the problems detected in the previous analysis phase.

Sustainable Urban Recycling

To LINK the area to its surroundings and establishing a hierarchy for the connections within the campus. This would solve the current problem of the LTH feeling isolated from the rest of Lund. The connections would act as the veins and arteries of the LTH organism, organising flows of people and transport.

68

To DEFINE the existing open spaces.

This is done by giving some character to this spaces. We find productive land, like urban farming and gardening, landscape like parks and social public areas like squares and multipurpose areas. This different areas would be like the fabrics of an organism.

To INTERACT with the users, since the area is quite monotonous, only student focused. This is achieved by implanting temporal activities that would attract all sorts of people. This would be related to the cells and processes taking place in a body.

The three main areas of the zoom in would act as the lungs, the heart and the senses of the LTH.

The main vision of this proposal is to create a vibrant area in the city of Lund where the locals, the students and the scientific community find an exciting place where they can develop they daily activities, either if is about work, living or leisure. They will ways have the feeling of being in a lively University Campus.

After a careful consideration about the future grow of Lund and the needs and interests of the students, a three-point strategy was planned. The first point is reinforcing the identity and community spirit in the LTH campus, the second is reinforce the identity and community spirit in the campus and finally bring this user to live and work in the LTH campus area.

This points will be base in four main layers: Identity, Unification, Densification and Connection. Each of them have their own strategies. These strategies are built around the preservation of the existing green areas and the new blue water layer

that will be part of a grey water treatment system of the surrounding buildings.

Another main idea of this proposal, is create an interaction among people by sharing spaces, knowledge and activities that will be mainly located in the heart of the campus to achieve this sense of community in our society.

I have been working with densifying within the LTH-campus, introducing a greater diversity of use by focusing on dwellings togeter with the variation of uses that comes along with a residential neighbourhood. The project seeks to redefine the physical sphere of programs related to everyday life, by moving domestic programs to zones of semi public and public character. These small scale spaces are to be spaces “in between” larger public recreational spaces. They are spread over the project site so all dwellings will be within a distance of maximum 100 metres from any recreational space.

Both the small and large scale recreational spaces will have a range of programs, many of them defined in the program catalogue. This catalogue is developed as a tool to design a varied and inclusive program for the public and semi public spaces of the project.

Some programs will be carried out site by site while others might occur at different times of the day and year.

The programs of the catalogue relates to elements such as water resources, local food supply, access to green areas, bikeability and walkability, facility and resource sharing, efficient use of the housing stock and enhancement of democracy as well as social exchange.

All issues that are important to take account of designing a more sustainable neighbourhood.

MODULAR BUILDING TYPOLOGIES

“Grow and build.”

Proposal of a modular building system for the sustainable development of the LTH campus area.

Sustainable Urban Recycling

The proposed structure should be flexible (should be able to host university, residential and commercial uses) and adaptable over time. Part of the sustainability concept is that living spaces can be enlarged or reduced should the need for that arise.

76

The main building material should be timber, mainly locally sourced, in part even on the campus. That is also part of the land recultivation agenda for the campus area, in which formerly sealed areas like parking lots will be recultivated. Timber that grows there can be simbolically harvested and put in use in the building that is to replace that tree. CO² is to be stored in the building materials instead of being produced for other building materials.

As a kind of technology showcase for the

sustainable development of the Skåne area, the structural building parts of the proposed modular timber structures should be visibly produced onsite. The LTH area should turn into a beacon of sustainble improvement of the region.

Underused areas on top of buildings should also be considered for residential and academic structures.

Another focus is to further limit the usage and the consumption of fertile soil by placing most buildings on pillars and implemeting a system of elevated boardwalks to connect the freestanding cluster structures. The feeling of living in an urban forest should be evoked, with the benefits of a good playing conditions for children, as well as olfactory and health improvements.

The not sealed space can be used for water infiltration, leisure, sport and growing eatable plants and building materials (structural and for insulation).

AERIAL OVERVIEW

“Making LTH more exciting and

Sustainable Urban Recycling

connected.“

80

As LTH campus is a monofunctional place, containing only university building and not exciting for the other citizens of Lund to visit. i have proposed to create network of activities that can a person do in the campus easier as student or as visitor.

I have started to connect the tram way either the science way and place activities in between them taking into consideration the entrances and position of each building.

The network also focuses on the entrance of the LTH to make it more inviting and I have suggested an open gallery and a small kiosk that present foods from different parts and different culture and will provide work opportunities for different social groups.

Also I wanted to promote sharing culture in LTH campus as it is a very important opportunity for the region and suggested cultural walls near KĂĽrhuset that people can now learn more about other cultures.

The network will include a green corridor connecting all parts together and a collecting water network which will also protect the area during flooding.

I consider the old trees in my design proposal and added new trees to improve the biodiversity in the campus and suggested an urban farm area connecting the housing area with Lth.

“LTH has the potential to become a much more diverse space, offering more than just

Sustainable Urban Recycling

eductation to Lund.”

82

This projects is based around the identification of five key issues within LTH; poor orientation, underutilised land, disconnect from the rest of the city, a lack of hounsing, and homogenous land uses. This project seeks to address these issues, as well as respond to growth within the city, creating a broader range of land uses in the area and increasing the availaible housing stock. The broader vision is to transform LTH into a real neighbourhood for all people, rather than just a campus for faculty and students.

This is being attempted in two ways.

First, a significant increase in the number of people living in the area by introducing both new student and regular housing opportunities. Second, the development of a new secondary mixed use activity center to the south east of the site which will be supported by the population increase. This will allow the area a more diverse range of functions while still supporting and respecting the existing campus.

A major feature of this is the redevelopment of the north-south and east-west networks, which is intended to funnel visitors from the proposed tram stops to the new areas of activity.

The development of Öle Romers väg is also intended to open up the back end of the site to both Ideon and the new development further out.

“Introducing an urban

experience and a human scale.”

84

The LTH of today is a result of a modernistic planning paradigm that replaced the streets and squares of the city, with empty lawns and car dominated streets and parking lots.

Functions were also separated, meaning that spontaneous activities or unplanned meetings between people are reduced to a minimum.

To change this situation I am suggesting another layer of urban fabric; one that is more mixed, diverse and small scale, that will add the qualities we can find in the city center. The LTH square with several new public buildings, will add important functions and meeting places, creating a core of the campus area that will support the interaction between students and also connect different groups of people in a larger scale. This new node will also, together with a development of the parks, strengthen the identity of LTH. This new center of LTH relies on a heavy densification around the parks. To

bring in more people, offices, retail and restaurants, means that the LTH area will not rely solely on the institutions anymore, thereby creating a more mixed and resilient neighbourhood structure.

Gardens and shared plots for farming are important elements of these new apartment blocks, to provide a platform for human interaction also in the small scale.

Altogether, a more sustainable LTH is achieved through the strong web of human relationships being tied together through these new places.

RESTRUCTURING THE CAMPUS

“Bright and sunny happy green

spaces!�

86

Sprawling lush greenery and red bricks are parts of the ideal template for any campus. However, in the LTH scenario, monotonous large brick buildings hidden behind thick shrubbery create a sense of disconnect and lack of legibility in the campus.

The campus itself is cocooned in a thick blanket of green, disconnected and disengaged from the rest of the city OF Lund. Catering to a single user group, the students, further alienates the LTH campus. The aim of this design is to link LTH back to the rest of the city and shift the function of the area from being student centric to a space for a more diverse user group. This has been achieved by introducing other programmes within the campus such as residential spaces, commercial spaces and LTH-Ideon linked offices. Since there is a vast amount of green which has been split up and divided within the zoning of the new programme.

This creates pockets of green spaces that can be used by users occupying the buildings surrounding it. This way, the green is utilized a lot more than when it was a massive green patch.

The heights of the new buidlings have been decided according to that which allows maximum sunlight and user based functions such as seating, amphitheatres and play areas have been located in the sunniest spots.

LTH Campus is one the most important structure in Lund and in that way is important to make this place alive during the day and evening. The project is about to mixing functions inside the area and in the surroundings. The area of proposal is the one close to A Building, the student housing and Ideon hotel. The aim of the area consists in create a new meeting point with an arena to having some presentations , place to stay and enjoy the nature. Otherwise the stairs of the arena follow the topography to decrease the speed of rain water.

The materials of pavement are permeable to absorber the rain water. In the middle of the arena the small water tanks collect the rain water and that can be reuse for irrigation. During the night the water tanks have illumination to make a new atmosphere and live during the evenings. Furthermore this project will be remarkable for the area and for all the city.

“The more we establish a complex and diverse network of connections at LTH, the more it can be resilient and

90

Between the walls of LTH is a vision for a campus where outdoor spaces have been deprived of life and street activity, rupturing any possible continuity between the Center of Lund and the currently growing area of Max IV. To carefully understand the spatial qualities of the campus, and what’s going behind its giant brick walls, was a first step that led me to propose an Ecosystem approach in order to enhance those qualities: The more complex the network is between different elements of the area and its vicinity, the more it can be lively, resilient and adaptable. Therfore I propose investing in the current social capital through a process of place making that helps establish a strong and diverse network in the area, trying to establish creative merging of functions, and focusing on the complementary contrast between academic, proffessional, residential and commercial activities.

Housing beside the LTH buildings should consider their grandiose facades and the relatively calm atmosphere they generate all around. The proposal suggest using of the LTH buildings as a background for intemate sapces and semi-private gardens, as well as common areas for each housing group, promoting the sense of community and integrity.

My strategy acknowledges the importance of the large green area in LTH; that’s why I propose extending the activities confined within the walls of the institution into the outdoor landscape in order to increase the use value of these areas, protect the biodiversity through social sustainability, and connect the campus to the wider network of Lund. Public spaces are protected from wind through building heights and neighborhood structure, and water is collected along the exisiting infrastructure, where the landscape reaches its lowest level.

New Urbanity at LTH Silvia Paris, Italy

MASTER PLAN

“Urbanity is not only about density. It´s the social interactions, diversity...”

Currently the area around LTH looks empty and mono-functional. People go there only for working or studying; one of the main reasons is that the spaces between the building are huge and there are no places for interactions.

The insertion of the new tram line is going to change the way to live the city, and the all area will need to be activated.

Sustainable Urban Recycling

My project is focused on a densification of the connections around the University area, where all the traffic will be concentrated, keeping the area between the LTH buildings green and accessible only to pedestrian.

92

Street-facing building will define the neighborhoods, while the park will be divided in different open and public spaces, throw the creation of a network of paths that will allow easier connections between the university buildings and new views throw all the area.

“Define, strenghten and share the green values of the LTH

Campus.”

94

In the year of 2050 Lund municipality is expecting to have 60 000-90 000 new inhabitants, and the city is therefore in need of new housing and workplaces.

The LTH Campus is today situated in the outskirts of the center of Lund but has the potential to become an important node that binds together the old city of Lund with the new big development Brunnshög. To densify the campus area is therefore the key to a future Lund full of knowledge.

The LTH campus is today a large open green area with dominant brick buildings from the 60´s. These can be considered as beautiful, but also boring. The lack of identity in the area, makes it hard to find the way and doesn’t make you feel welcome.

In my proposal I strengthen the green values by breaking up the large area and define them in to smaller pieces with its unique character. In the zones where the buildings of LTH meets other functions

I densify with housing or offices to enhance the connectivity.

The project is named “Share it!” because I believe that the key to a sustainable future is to cooperate with each other and to take responsibility both for your neighbourhood and the world. It is easier to share (the green lung, the street, the city) when something is defined and you feel that it is yours to share!

“Connecting people to places and people to people.�

The idea of the project is using the existing characteristics of the campus to strengthen it and connect it to the rest of the city. The aim is to have an integrated campus: integrated to the city, within itself and with nature, as well as connected to people.

Sustainable Urban Recycling

Within this vision, the already existing knowledge path was used as a tool to strengthen the connections to the campus.

96

Along the path, many different types of places can be found, which either connect to the functions in the university or offer new experiences for the students and for the community, with commerce, restaurants, learning center and entertainment options.

The LTH campus had its center rebalanced, so that it could be more integrated with the Architecture, Design and Chemistry building and their surroundings. This new center, around

the new pond area, offers different activities, not only for the students but also for the community living around the campus. Those activities include a street market, a cafĂŠ, a restaurant and the interaction with water, not only on summer but also on winter, freezing the pond for ice skating.

The interventions on the campus allow visual and physical interaction between people, connecting people to places and people to people.

Around the campus and along the streets that lead to it, the areas were densified, in order to bring people to the campus area.

The project aim to bring people from the center to the LTH campus in order to make the area more diverse and attractive. The tramway will connect the centre to the campus and a sequence of activities sorted along the green spine will generate new communities bringing a more lively atmosphere.

New commerce will open along Kunskapstråket and on the key nodes of the neighborhood creating centers to densify the area. In total, the neighborhood will host over 2’500 new inhabitants providing Lund a smoother connection to the city’s North Eastern spreading. In the meantime, start up offices will open in empty parts of the campus buildings to provide students accommodation and work at the end of their studies.

The LTH campus will also become a car free area with strengthened pedestrian paths. The porosity of the bottom floor is to be improved to host exhibitions

and workshops mixing students from different faculties to enhance the inner connections of the site. Pavilions will help to bring the inside activities to a broader public.

“Integrating Lund with new paths to knowledge.”

The strategy is an attempt address the social issues in Lund and challenge the current planning, where big projects like Kunskapsstårket, Brunnshög and the new court apply mainly to a creative class, already equipped with great social capital, knowledge and money.

Sustainable Urban Recycling

Lund, like many other Swedish cities, face segregation, and the gaps are getting bigger. Education plays a key role in breaking these trends, and by connecting the LTH campus area with socially challenged areas the campus will become more diverse and including.

102

These connections are made by new routes and wayfinding, but in addition to this, the project also include generators, such as new buildings for SFI and Komvux, halls for children, a more defined park area and new sport and training facilities north of the current LTH area. New squares and with meeting places, restaurants and cafés are placed in close connection to these generators.

In addition to this, new houses are being built where the living unit are flexible and mixed for students, refugees, regular and affordable housing. Together, these interventions will create a more equal campus, sharing and generating knowledge to everyone.

“Is it possible to create strong communities for people who

live in an area temporarily?”

104

The housing shortage in Sweden has reached a point where potential students choose not to begin their studies due to the difficulties associated with finding a place to live in the major university cities. Last year over 160 000 refugees sought asylum in Sweden, resulting in harsher refugee policies and passport controls travelling in the Öresund region. Tightened asylum policies are in many ways tied to the difficulties in providing housing. Solving the housing crisis is one of the largest challenges of our time, and looking at the possible implications it has got on refugee policy and the mobility of students, I would argue it is one of the largest problems of democracy in Sweden today.

More housing needs to be built, and in Lund, the new developments towards the northeast, as well as a new tram line gives new possibilities for the city’s expansion. LTH campus is one of the least populated in Lund and could afford a fairly intense densification. In

this project, new housing and mixed use areas are proposed. 40% of the new housing should be available for students, as well as 10% for asylum seekers.

But is it possible to create strong communities for people who live in an area temporarily? This question has been the main theme of my design proposal. This is attempted through the use of six strategies for social sustainability. These strategies are inspired by the report Design for Social Sustainability—A framework for creating thriving new communities (Future Communities, 2011); People friendlylayouts, Flexible and adaptiver buildings, Urban farming, Community generated power, Distinctive architecture, and a Permeable block structure.

“Smart LTH” is a result of an analytical method of urban planning, in which the design process is based on a necessity of consideration of different external and internal factors influencing future functional composition of new buildings and formation of physical space.

Deductive analysis on the first stages of design included methodical research of the existing buildings of LTH, the neighboring areas surrounding the territory, the future train line, and the city of Lund.

LTH by itself is supposed to keep it’s ‘Campus identity’ in the future, however, the activities of the university which are currently hidden inside the buildings should be put on display in newly created structures. The City of Lund in its turn might also use the plan of densification of the area as an opportunity to alleviate the tension on a housing market and to potentially attract new businesses.

Additionally, the existing project of a future train line was considered as

an important factor influencing the development around the train stops and changing the pattern of an existing pedestrian and car movement.

As a result, the changes that should be made into the area of LTH in order to ensure it’s successful development in a future perspective were determined and, after summarization of all the factors, the final design was made basing on a most favorable combination. The result of this synergy is the conversion of the today’s LTH campus into a vibrant mix use neighborhood.
