Abstract
Dette kandidatspeciale ved Aalborg Universitets Architecture, Design & Media Technology (AD:MT) er resultatet af et års arbejde i efteråret 2013 og foråret 2014. Specialet består af en teoretisk del og et designforslag om samme tema: en arkitektonisk behandling af urban farming med fokus på det arkitektoniske rum, dvs. hvordan rum formes og opleves. I samarbejde med Aalborg Kommune, hvor interessen for urban farming er stigende blandt borgere og planlæggere, foreslår projektet en måde at håndtere en bestemt gren af urban farming med udgangspunkt i Aalborgs fjord. Den teoretiske del udvikler en ramme for, hvordan omhyggelig rumlig udformning kan bruges i den arkitektoniske behandling af urban farming.
This master’s project at Aalborg University’s Architecture, Design & Media Technology (AD:MT) program is the result of one year of work during fall 2013 and spring 2014. It has two parts—a theoretical study and a design proposal—on the same topic: an architectural approach to urban farming, with emphasis on architectural space, meaning how spaces are shaped and experienced. In collaboration with the City of Aalborg, amid growing interest in urban farming among residents and municipal planners, the project proposes a way to address a specific branch of urban farming centered on the Aalborg fjord. The theoretical study develops a framework for using careful spatial design to guide the architectural treatment of urban farming.
