Västberga Artistkolletiv (VAK), as a project, is an investigation into the self-image of my home town, Stockholm. It is a mapping of both the experienced and factual cultural scene in order to understand how and where an addition would be suitable. The end goal has been a physical building, a platform that strategically helps raising the creative potential of this city. The idea is to design a place dedicated to creating the best possible environment for recording live concerts, in regard to both audio and video. Hence, an acoustically perfected live venue for broadcasting and recording artists of various levels. The purpose is to provide a platform where they can grow, as well as spread their music and art. Furthermore, it is a meeting point for people, so experiencing a concert on site should not be regarded as less of a priority than the recorded material. On the larger scale the investigation aims to establish the link between the architecture - the venue, and the self-image of the city and its citizens, to see how they are nurturing each other. This is also a residential building, and a gathering spot for anyone that feels like they want to be a part of a creative environment, living inside a concert venue, while working on their own music or collaborating with the platform and radio station.
