Small Observations Around The Storage Site

Gulde, Stellan January 2022 (has links)
The state of the unfinished is something I am fascinated by, and in the course of this engagement my ambition has been to examine how an understanding of the unfinished can contribute to a re-evaluation in both planning habits and in our interaction with existing buildings. For example, can it help challenge our conception of aesthetics and completeness? At the storage site, I also became curious to investigate how we as a community store, what we store and how we can build connections around storage facilities. To study and also emphasize the historic layering of a site, I implemented the yellow/red method of drawing. Yellow represents the past, black the present and red is the future. Lastly, I have in debt studied the spaces through occasions. The occasions (a definition originally coined by Jan De Vylder) are born out of small observations that can give a decisive turn to the design. It’s a moment in which the thresholds between the existing and the new blurs. In that moment when a confrontation between the new and the old occurs, I believe permanence can emerge. The occasions I have depicted are often small acts of greater significance, perhaps neither more nor less than the mere rearrangement of what already existed. Can amplifying those small observations from a storage site generate a collective interest, consideration and appreciation for our built environment and its maintenance?
