Chasing Butterflies - Botanical Future

Selander, Beatrice January 2023 (has links)
Chasing Butterflies is a city planning/landscape proposal for Bromma Airport that strives to: • Imagine a future eco-city through a biophilic lens. • Apply biophilic ideas relating to plants.   • Move towards meeting the criteria set-up by Stockholm´s municipality. • React to the proposal “Bromma Parkstad” by the Swedish Environmentalist party. The method consisted of:  • Support design decisions by referring to scientific data and theories from the course Trädgårdens Biologi, orienteringskurs (Introduction to Garden Biology) at Stockholm University and other scientific articles relating to the subject such as phytoremediation (decontamination through vegetation), pollination and the history of Bromma Airport. • Literature research on the following topics: the history of the Swedish allotment movement, the biophilic ideology, greenhouse living, environmental psychology, landscape theories regarding non-human migration patterns and ecological theories concerning pollination.  • Searching through digital archives of governmental/municipality reports.  Thesis question: How can architecture help generate biodiversity and how can non-human actors be integrated into a new eco-city at Bromma Airport?    Different types of cultivated land (allotments, private gardens, community gardens, parks, urban farming, and greenhouses) have been studied to investigate how architecture can help generate biodiversity on multiple scales.  Furthermore, there are several so called "forever chemicals" present at the site. For Bromma Airport to become inhabitable, the soil would have to go through a thorough cleans, where the use of plants is the most efficient alternative.  The strategy is to: • Keep all material on-site, since relocating to a different site would only move the problem.  • Use plants for cleansing and letting the land heal in its own time. • Maximize different types of cultivated land in an urban environment.

BMA / BEURA : Evolving inhabitation through self-building and adaptive reuse / BMA / BEURA : Utvecklande av bebyggelse genom självbyggeri och återbruk

Hedin, Karl January 2023 (has links)
My thesis, "BMA (Bromma airport) / BEURA (Bromma experimental urban recycling association), an adaptive rebirth", explores the potential for an evolution of self-built circular inhabitation on the airport runway of Bromma through adaptive reuse and circular construction. The Bromma Airport in Stockholm is set to cease operation by 2038, leaving behind a vast expanse of infrastructure that could be repurposed for other uses. Instead of a late termination of the air traffic tenure, my proposal calls for the airport to be shut down immediately in favor of evolving dwellings on the site through community-based dynamic urban planning. This alternative plan for the future of Bromma Airport considers how the extensive flat surface of concrete that the runway provides can be utilized for slabs and foundations in circular construction and adaptive reuse for self-built dwellings.  My project aims to critique and challenge the current "housing as a commodity" discourse and argues for a greater qualitative approach to urban planning. Rather than focusing, for instance, on the number of dwellings, my proposal emphasizes the integration of different functions, community engagement, and the evolution of dwellings according to needs and supply/ability. By planning for a sustainable, community-focused inhabitation that prioritizes shared spaces and sustainable living practices, my proposal offers a model for future urban planning projects that prioritize qualitative measures beyond the obsolete urban planning trinity equilibrium of economic, social and ecological sustainability.
