Abstract
Specialet “A place of Retreat” undersøger, hvordan et retrætested kan styrke menneskers bevidsthed om deres tilstedeværelse i verden ved at bryde hverdagens rutiner og genoprette forbindelsen til naturen. Udgangspunktet er, at naturens multisensoriske oplevelser—som involverer flere sanser på én gang—kan have en restituerende virkning på kroppen. Designet søger derfor at fastholde en løbende kontakt til stedet og dets omgivelser. Samtidig arbejder specialet for at øge opmærksomheden på, hvordan vi behandler vores planet, for at motivere en mere bæredygtig livsform.
The master’s thesis “A place of Retreat” explores how a retreat space can strengthen people’s awareness of being in the world by breaking daily routines and reconnecting them with nature. It starts from the idea that nature’s multi-sensory experiences—engaging several senses at once—can have a restorative effect on the body. The design therefore encourages a continuous relationship with the site and its surroundings. At the same time, the thesis seeks to raise awareness of how we treat the planet to encourage a more sustainable way of living.
