Honorable mention, degree project in architecture 2022 Beginning with the adjustment of a single room and culminating through an addition to the dwelling itself, this thesis describes the incremental development of a residential point-block in Hökarängen, a southern suburb of Stockholm. With a careful approach to alteration and addition, the project aims to build on the richness and social ambition of the neighbourhood’s original 1944 urban plan. Striving to reinstate as well as update those ideals of democracy, community and diversity by working in a way that sits outside the current ‘marketized’ mode of production of our cities. Striving towards a kind of symbiosis, the proposed ‘extension’ to the tower is an exploration in both typology at the building scale as well as living conditions at the scale of the apartment.
