Abstract
Dette speciale præsenterer designet af et bæredygtigt, urbant bofællesskab ved den sydlige del af Godsbanen i Aarhus, Danmark. Arbejdet bruger en integreret designtilgang, hvor ingeniør- og arkitektfaglige perspektiver arbejder sammen, med bæredygtighed som hovedfokus. Processen forløber fra problemformulering over analyse, skitsering og syntese til den endelige præsentation. Designet er styret af tre temaer: tilhørighed (at skabe en følelse af hjem og forbindelse), co-living/bofællesskab (delte fællesområder og ressourcer) og social bæredygtighed (at understøtte trivsel og stærke sociale relationer). Disse temaer afspejles i det endelige forslag.
This master’s thesis presents the design of a sustainable urban co-housing community at the southern area of Godsbanen in Aarhus, Denmark. It uses an integrated design approach that combines engineering and architectural perspectives, with sustainability as the main focus. The work follows a clear process from problem definition through analysis, sketching, synthesis, and final presentation. The design is guided by three themes: belonging (creating a sense of home and connection), co-living (shared spaces and resources within a community), and social sustainability (supporting well-being and strong social ties). These themes are reflected in the final proposal.
