Ongoing places, generated traces : An exploration of realtions, translations and temporarity in city planning transformation

This project is an exploration of co-produced space in a city planning process. With the intention of exploring participatory design processes in the field of spatial design, this project is focusing on co-production of space and the role and power of the architect as a relational and spatial initiator. Since participatory design processes have become an implemented tool in municipal city planning, it is of relevance from a perspective of interior architecture to through practical work be both specific, aware and transparent about how these processes could be designed.  The project takes place in a public park in Gottsunda, a district south of Uppsala, built as a part of the Swedish million programme in the 1960’s- and -70’s. Gottsunda is now undergoing a city planning transformation and expansion. With background of city planning and architecture from that time, this project has been seeking knowledge of what relevance participation plays in city planning today.  This project has been conducted through a series of spatial activities at site, historical research and meetings with a group of teenage girls living in Gottsunda.  The conclusions and implications of this project are that the interior architect’s tools as tactile and close to both object, places and users, in this case residents, are of relevance in city planning. Participation is relational, and the interor architect's ability is to both design, understand and translate those relations into the practice of spatial design. / <p>Bilder har tagits bort i enlighet med upphovsrättslagen.</p>
