Abstract:

Peu après 1200, Philippe-Auguste, roi de France, ayant achevé la conquête de la majeure partie de l'empire continental des rois d’Angleterre de la dynastie Plantagenet, met en œuvre une politique de construction d'essence étatique et militaire en divers lieux du royaume. Outre des enceintes de ville, les réalisations de cette politique furent des tours maitresses royales de forme circulaire simple et standardisée. Ce choix architectural affirmé destine à exprimer le pouvoir et l'identité du souverain se situe au terme d'une période d'expérimentation des donjons de pierre seigneuriaux et royaux

Abstract:

This thesis is the story of two housing projects designed by architect Ralph Erskine. The first building, Lassaskog in Växjö built in 1954, is one of the earliest examples of industrialized concrete housing in Sweden. The other one, Kv. Ortdrivaren in Kiruna was built some eight years later following Erskine’s utopian ideas for The Arctic City. Despite their architectural and historical significance, these two buildings are threatened today: Ortdrivaren will be demolished and Lassaskog will be hastily densified. This thesis is a reaction to these threats, and it is a call for preserving and

Abstract:

At present, construction is one of the most destructive, energy consuming and material wasting industries. The current linear system cannot last, and to change anything, we need to redesign the system and our way of thinking. In my thesis, I will explain the theory behind a circular economy and how it could be applied to building, as well as discuss waste issues and material sources. Deconstruction is also a big polluter, and one solution to combat that problem would be to design buildings to be readily disassembled. The aim of this project is to bring awareness about the subject of sustainabl

Abstract:

Industrialism has affected our way of building cities, using the production line as a model for living. Our lives are divided into parts both in time and space, with zones for different activities, kinds of housing, and phases of life. Diseases related to a sedentary lifestyle and stress are increasing and we feel lonelier than ever. Can we think in a more circular way, respect planetary boundaries, and create possibilities for a healthier life for us and our planet? This project aims to explore possible strategies for a more circular way of building our cities.

Of special interest are several large sites with stone buildings with circular ground plans, similar to the shape of a flower.

The First Building comprised a simple platform that underwent numerous extensions, each phase of which received a circular sunken plaza.
