Abstract [en]
This project has sprung from a desire to look into my memories of a now demolished summer house in Värmland. It has been directed mainly by three other sections in addition to the source subject: the history of the self built cottage, metabolism as an approach and interpreting and translating fragmented outputs.
The building type is investigated as a fortuitous assembly of parts, constructed over time. The intention with the project is to generate unexpected architectural components based on this house, from dividing it into fragments of recollection in order to inform construction by making assemblages.
The process has in a sense been reversed, starting from small details and developed and merged together in unison with the original site to find volume, and spatial relationship between the units. Since the source material for the original building is scarce, the resulting output becomes skewed, and off-scale, but in return brings another quality and aesthetic of something made through the joy of building.
