House above the dock (English)
Abstract [en]

The house above the dock is located by Hjälmare Docka in Arboga municipality and right next to Hjälmare canal. The assignment was to design a community hall and add an additional program based on location and analysis. The beautiful surroundings around the canal and the many well-preserved historical elements made me add a hotel and museum as I wanted more people to discover the place and its history. I chose to place the building above a dock where boats are stored during winter to be able to include the boats as part of the museum's exhibition but also so hotel guests can park their boat under the building and get directly to the hotel. Due to the location, the lower construction of the house is dimensioned to be able to accommodate all types of boats that can pass through the canal. The arch construction is made of steel and inspired by traditional tram halls while the upper house is made entirely of locally produced wood.

Abstract [sv]

Huset på dockan ligger vid Hjälmare Docka i Arboga kommun och precis intill Hjälmare kanal. Uppgiften gick ut på att rita ett "folkets hus" och addera ett ytterligare program efter plats och analys. Det vackra omgivningarna kring kanalen och de många välbevarade historiska inslagen fick mig att lägga till ett hotell och museum då jag ville få fler att upptäcka platsen och dess historia. Jag valde att placera byggnaden ovanför en docka där man torrlägger båtar för att kunna inkludera båtarna som en del av museets utställning men också för att hotellgäster ska kunna anlägga med båt och ta sig direkt till hotellet. På grund av placeringen så är husets undre konstruktion dimensionerad efter att kunna rymma alla typer av båtar som kan passera i kanalen. Valvkonstruktionen är i stål och inspirerad av traditionella spårvagnshallar medans huset är byggt helt i lokalproducerat trä.
