Abstract

Dette projekt omhandler et ømtåleligt emne nemlig døden. Opgaven for denne master afhandling lyder på at skabe nogle fysiske rammer for uhelbredeligt syge mennesker, hvor der er mulighed for at leve sin sidste dage i fred i selskab med sine nærmeste. Motivationen for at skrive dette projekt ligger i at skabe et sted hvor man ikke kommer til at dø en social død før den fysiske. Derfor er det et hovedfokus at skabe nogle omgivelser der kan lede tankerne væk fra den situation den pågældende står i. der er derfor arbejdet med at aktivere sanser på mennesker og derigennem udløse minder. Det tekniske fokus i rapporten ligger på indeklima og bæredygtighed. Målet er at sikre patienterne velbefindende ved at integrere tekniske løsninger i designet af bygningen. Samtidig er det målet at bygningen skal overholde energirammer i forhold til 2020 kraven. Projektet er placeret i Tversted plantage som ligge i det nordlige Danmark ud til kysten. Sitet ligger mere specifikt i en åbning i plantagen, hvilket betyder at lokationen er omringet af naturskønne omgivelser. Projektet beskæftiger sig med at afvikle institutionsfølelsen man ofte oplever i sundhedssektoren, som f.eks. hospitalsgangen og patientstuerne. Derfor har det været et mål at arbejde med at skabe et sidste hjem for beboerne. Dette indbefatter tilpasningsdygtighed i patienternes stuer samt muligheden for at påvirke deres omgivelser.

This project deals with a delicate subject, the death. The theme of this master thesis takes its base in creating a set of physical boundaries for terminal ill people, where there is the opportunity to spend their last days in peace in the company of their beloved ones. The motivation behind this project is to create a place where despite the complications of health, the patients do not die a social death before the physical. One of the primary focus areas will be to create surroundings that can distract the mind from the given situation, which is to be achieved through providing a sensory experience to create memories. The technical aspect of the thesis focuses on the indoor climate together with the areas of sustainability. The goal is to secure an elevated level of comfort for the patients through integrated design solutions, while simultaneously making the building fulfill the BR2020 demands. The project is located in the middle of the Tversted plantation, in the northern parts of Jutland. In the scenic landscape of a clearing with an unobstructed view over the north sea. The project focuses on trying to deinstitutionalize the building to build a home for the patients.
