A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
The project was partly sparked by the current developments in Kristiansand and the discussions that have followed; in particular how some believes the ’soul and character’ is disappearing with new developments and the extensive changes to the urban fabric. The city is growing and there is a need to increase and diversify the population in the centre, so what is the solution? This led to a particular interest in the distinct city centre, its character and questions such as; can we add rather than remove, use the spaces that already exist and potentially celebrate the existing? The aim was to be able to take a position in the discussion on how we should build in the city and propose a building intervention that would somehow reflect this.
