Abstract
Dette projekt er en undersøgelse af de designudfordringer, der relatere til mødet mellem motorvejen og byen. Den planlagte motorvej gennem Silkeborg er projektets Urbane Undersøgelses Felt, hvor motorvejens formtypologier (Overgang, Sammenfletning og Lomme) bliver udfordret som urbane strukturer, der transformere byområder og generere ny udvikling. Designet består af en samling af koncepter, der alle programmatisk og fysisk linker motorvejens lag med byens lag, og skaber en indgang til byen. Projektet præsenterer derfor status på projekt-laboratoriet december 2007.
This project is an investigation of the design challenges related to the meeting between the motorway and the city. The planned motorway through Silkeborg is the project´s Urban Test Field where the form typologies of the motorway as Crossing, Junction and Pocket are challenged as urban structures that transform city districts and generate new developments. The design consists of a set of concepts which all programmatically or physically link the layer of the motorway to the layer of the city and create a gateway to the city. The project represents the status of the lab December 2007.
