I Ösmo med sin centralitet och dess växande befolkning, så vill jag rita ett kulturhus som lyfter stadens behov. Statistiken visar att Ösmo kommer att ha den största befolkningsökningen i Nynäshamns kommun, och kommer därmed behöva fortsätta utveckla sin egen identitet, då Ösmo idag i huvudsak fungerar som en sovstad. Byggnaden ska vara en markör på denna utveckling av Ösmo, från en sovstad till en egen stad med egen karaktär. Kulturhusets plusprogram kommer att bestå av en saluhall, en verkstadsdel och en idrottsdel. Saluhallen blir en mötesplats mellan den lokala produktionen och befolkningen, och kan på så sätt lyfta upp den lokala produktionen och jobba för en hållbar konsumtion. Saluhallen placeras i Ösmo då detta är ett relativt central plats i Nynäshamn med nära kopplingar till både motorväg och pendeltåg. Verkstäderna blir en plats för utbildning och för start up-verksamheter. Verkstadsdelen har lokaler för handarbete med trä, textilier, metall och keramik, och skulle även kunna användas i samarbete med lokala skolor för att väcka barnens intresse och främja kreativitet. Dessutom ska lokalerna användas av olika start-up eller privatpersoner för kommersiella eller personliga behov. Detta kan bli en mötespunkt för människor i närheten, och erbjuder en möjlighet att lära sig och utveckla intresse för handarbete för personer som kanske inte annars haft den möjligheten i hemmet, och ändra Ösmos identitet från en sovstad till en stad med egna arbetsplatser och verksamhet. Sist men inte minst är idrottsdelen, som består av gym och omklädningsrum och blir det första gymmet i hela Ösmo. Det närmaste gymmet ligger idag i Nynäshamn vilket är orimligt långt bort för Ösmoborna. Byggnadens relation till fotbollsplanen, gör det tillgängligt även för fotbollsspelarna att använda. Idén om byggnadens form kom ur och utvecklades efter skogen då tomten för närvarande är täckt av olika slags träd. Byggnadens form är inspirerad av trädens form, särskilt eken som sprider sina grenar och skapar ett tak. Därför utvecklades en modul för konstruktionen som liknar trädens utformning. Sedan ska modulen placeras bredvid varandra likt trädens placering i en skog. Det ledde till utformningen av en envåningsbyggnad som följer det relativt platta landskapet. / In Ösmo with its centrality and its growing population, I want to design a cultural center that highlights the city's needs. The statistics show that Ösmo will have the largest population increase in Nynäshamn municipality, and will thus have to continue to develop its own identity, as Ösmo today essentially functions as a sleeping town. The building is to be a marker of this development of Ösmo, from a sleeping town to a city of its own with its own character.The Culture house's plus program will consist of a market hall, a workshop part and a sports part. The market hall becomes a meeting place between the local production and the population, and can thus lift the local production and work for sustainable consumption. The market hall is placed in Ösmo as this is a relatively central location in Nynäshamn with close connections to both the freeway and commuter train.The workshops become a place for training and for start-up activities. The workshop part has premises for handicrafts with wood, textiles, metal and ceramics, and could also be used in collaboration with local schools to arouse children's interest and promote creativity. In addition, the premises are to be used by various start-ups or private individuals for commercial or personal needs. This can become a meeting point for people nearby, and offers an opportunity to learn and develop an interest in needlework for people who might not otherwise have had that opportunity at home, and change Ösmo's identity from a sleeping town to a city with its own workplaces and activities. Last but not least is the sports section, which consists of a gym and changing room and will be the first gym in the whole of Ösmo. Today, the nearest gym is in Nynäshamn, which is unreasonably far away for Ösmo residents. The building's relationship to the football field, makes it available even for the football players to use.The idea for the shape of the building came out of and developed after the forest, as the site is currently covered with different kinds of trees. The shape of the building is inspired by the shape of the trees, especially the oak that spreads its branches and creates a roof. Therefore, a module was developed for the construction that resembles the design of the trees. Then the module must be placed next to each other, similar to the placement of the trees in a forest. This led to the design of a one-story building that follows the relatively flat landscape.

In today’s consumption landscape the market hall is a place of luxury and authenticity. However, the idea of the market hall has changed several times during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. When the first market hall was constructed in Stockholm, in 1875, the objective was to provide the consumers with safe food in a neatly organized environment that would foster civic pride and propel Stockholm into modernity. By the 1930s, the market halls in Stockholm were rundown and outmoded. These rundown retail spaces had been replaced by neighborhood stores at a convenient distance from the consumer. The market halls seemed like old dinosaurs, waiting to be swept away by the river of time. But the market halls remained, and in due course experienced a renaissance as sumptuous food temples, more genuine and inviting than the bland standardization and cold rationality of mainstream food retail. To address the long time-period, the dissertation is divided into three separate parts, with different methods and materials. The first part is a historical exposé based primarily on archival material. The second part relies more on secondary sources, but draws on contemporary documents as well. For the third part ethnographic fieldwork was the chosen method. This dissertation examines the role of the market hall in Stockholm and how the links between production, distribution and consumption of food have been organized in time and space during the past hundred and fifty years. How was the market hall recoded during this period? The relevance of this question lies in what this can tell us about urban food retail and the cultures of consumption linked to it. It also allows us to reflect upon the effects of the choices we make for the future of food production, distribution and consumption. / I dagens konsumtionslandskap är saluhallen en plats för lyx och autenticitet. Men saluhallens betydelse har ändrats flera gånger under 1900- och 2000-talen. När den första saluhallen byggdes i Stockholm år 1875, var målet att ge konsumenterna säkra livsmedel i en hygienisk och välordnad miljö som både skulle kännas elegant och göra Stockholm till en modern världsstad. Vid 1930-talet var saluhallarna i Stockholm både nedslitna och omoderna. De hade ersatts av kvartersbutiker som låg på bekvämt avstånd från konsumenten. Saluhallarna verkade vara gamla dinosaurier, som bara väntade på att svepas bort av tidens gång. Men saluhallarna blev kvar, och i sinom tid upplevde de en renässans som överdådiga mattempel, som var mer genuina och inbjudande än den vanliga dagligvaruhandelns standardiserade och hyperrationella konsumtionsmiljöer. För att hantera den långa tidsperioden, är avhandlingen indelad i tre delar, med olika metoder och material. Den första delen är en klassisk historieskrivning baserad på arkivmaterial. Den andra delen förlitar sig mer på sekundärlitteratur, men gör även ett utsnitt av samtidens källor. Den tredje delen består av ett etnografiskt fältarbete. Denna avhandling undersöker den roll saluhallen har spelat i Stockholms konsumtionslandskap och hur sambanden mellan produktion, distribution och konsumtion av livsmedel har set ut i tid och rum under de senaste hundrafemtio åren. Hur har saluhallen kodats och omkodats under denna period? Denna frågas relevans ligger i vad den kan berätta om stadens dagligvaruhandel och de konsumtionskulturer som är knutna till denna. Vad är effekterna av de val vi gör för framtida livsmedelsproduktion, distribution och konsumtion?

Vid ombyggnad av Östermalms Saluhall är ett förslag att tilläggsisolera taket, då ställs det kulturhistoriska värdet av byggnaden mot ombyggnadskraven i BBR. Idag gäller samma krav vid nybyggnad som vid ombyggnad av en byggnad. Det kan därför uppstå tvister vid ombyggnaden av saluhallen, då det är svårt att samtidigt uppfylla nybyggnads- och ombyggnadskrav på de delar som ska ändras. De delar på saluhallen som studerats är två takdetaljer och de projekteras och analyseras byggtekniskt, kulturvärdesmässigt och lagmässigt. Det kulturhistoriska värdet hotas vid ombyggnation, men samtidigt vill Stockholms stad energieffektivisera byggnaden så gott det går. Studien handlar därför om hur man på bästa sätt ska kunna energieffektivisera byggnaden och följa de ombyggnationskrav som finns utan att förvanska byggnaden. / At the rebuilding of Östermalms Saluhall a proposal has been made to add insulation to the roof. The cultural historical values of the building is set against reconstruction requirements of the building regulations made by the National board of Housing, Building and Planning. Today, requirements for a new construction are the same as for an reconstruction of a building. Contradictions therefore arise in the rebuilding of the market hall because of the difficulty to achieve the construction requirements as well as the reconstruction requirements for the parts that are to be changed. The parts that are studied is two details of the roof and they are designed and analysed by technical building aspects, cultural historical values and by legal requirements. The cultural historical values are threatened by redevelopment, but at the same time Stockholm City wants to maximize the energy efficiency of the building. The study is therefore focusing on how to best maximize energy efficiency of the building and follow the redevelopment requirements that exist without corrupting the building.

How does one restore the original life and program to a building that has been repurposed several times over the preceding decades? In the 1950s, Örebro had a fine market hall with great light and spaces. In the 1970s a supermarket took over the space, and the old roof with its skylights was demolished, but the original construction with its beams and pillars remains today. Reusing the old structure while adding new elements as an addition, I am giving new life to the old market hall and bringing back open spaces and natural light. My project is a proposal to re-open the old market hall in its old facilities by giving it a new roof to bring back the qualities that was lost in the 70’s. My guidelines during the project have been construction, light transmission and material and I have been focusing on finding a balance between construction and ornament while designing my addition. / Hur kan man ge tillbaka en byggnads ursprungliga liv och program som under decennier omprogrammerats flera gånger? På 50-talet hade Örebro and fin saluhall med fantastiskt ljus och rymliga lokaler. Under 70-talet tog en mataffär över lokalerna och rev då också det vackra sågtandade tak som byggnaden hade, dock står den ursprungliga bärande konstruktionen kvar med sina pelare och balkar. I mitt projekt återanvänder jag den ursprungliga konstruktionen och väcker på så sätt nytt liv i byggnaden. Jag föreslår ett nytt tak för byggnaden för att återinföra det naturliga ljus som försvann under 70-talet samtidigt som jag skapar nya öppna rumsligheter. Under projektets gång har konstruktion, ljusföring och material varit viktiga element som jag arbetat med. I mitt tillägg har jag fokuserat på att skapa en balans mellan konstruktionen som bär och de ornament som för in ljuset i byggnaden.

Diploma thesis brings a possible way of transformation of an old decaying garden centre into new residential and commercial quarter, connected with the surroundings fluently. Proposal interprets former industrial environment of the garden company and complete the nearest parts of the town by the well-structured and graded public space. Project restores the type of suburban market hall.

The proposal follows up on the undergraduate semester work which dealt with a topic of data centers - a lifestyle based on data circulation. Growing needs of city dwellers, coupled with the demand of constant connectivity, are reflected in the transformation of the landscape which is being occupied by gigantic data centers. Those data centres in the loopback reconfigure the environment of cities that use their instant and "unlimited" computing power. The landscape is becoming the engine room of digital urban life. The thesis develops social and environmental issues of "continuity between a city and a country” and outlines a problem of self-sufficiency and awareness of the energy intensity of current urban lifestyle. In my work I focus on one of the by-products of data centers. That is waste heat, which has a negative effect on the quality and lifespan of electronic components - it is undesirable. Data center entrepreneurs have found a way to divert unfavourable attention from the debate about the energy demand of big data. They transform waste into a desired commodity by replacing conventional forms of heating with a system newly based on the supply of waste heat. Therefore, they are becoming significant suppliers of thermal energy. The phenomenon of heat recycling neutralizes external criticism of big data by making urban life literally dependent on it. The sustainable future of data center operations takes place largely without critical debate. On the contrary, it confirms data production as a process that literally drives everyday life. This new wave of green techno-optimism and related implementations is shrouded in a discourse of innovation, environmental friendliness and smart data processing. The diploma thesis deals with the phenomenon of commodification of waste heat of a specific data center, and its potential for symbolic and material transformation of the urban environment. The critical dimension of this transformation allows visitors to literally experience first-hand the manipulation of the climate of a specific location - the new city market in Brno. Other issues arise in connection with the recycling of waste heat. What will happen when big data streams become a raw material to replace older forms of energy supply in an urbanized world? What will be the impact on the city´s heating, the economic and symbolic importance of data center entrepreneurs?

Brno has been considering moving the Main railway station for several decades. Countless urban plans have been done through several competitions, the new South District, which will be located north direction of today's Dolní nádraží station in the future. The architectural study, which was the subject of this diploma thesis, designs multifunctional object called Platform. The building could become part of the emerging South District. The base for the architectural study of the Platform was urban concept of South District designed by me as a pre-diploma thesis. The significance of the South District is comparable to the new Main Railway Station in Vienna surrounded by new district. Those opportunities were the foundation for designing compact urban structure with great variability of public spaces and buildings themselves. The new building is located on the Route of experiences, which is an alternative lane to the main boulevard from the Main Station to the centre of Brno. That starts at the railway station, leads through South District and its main square, the waterfront, through the islands of Svratka, to the park next to the river. Lane continues to the rediscovered railway viaduct and further to today's Main railway station. The viaduct was an inspiration for the architectural design, in the sense of material and shape. The mass of the building itself is divided horizontally into two parts. The lower, heavy masonry brick part of the market is visually separated from the upper objects that seem to levitate above the market. These three upper masses grow from the green roof of the market. Their function is already evident due to their facades. Upper part belongs to the two apartment buildings with a regular grid of south-west orientated windows and one coworking facility located in the northern corner of the Platform. The location of the building is significant. The views from the Platform are amazing - one side there is the Svratka River with island
