Abstract [sv]

Norr om Järna vid den befintliga hästgården Bergtorp fanns förutsättningar för en ny typ av byggnad som kombinerar flera aktiviteter. Hästarnas betydelse på platsen fick genomsyra Folkets hus genom en ridhall med diversitet och flexibilitet för ett hållbart socialt liv i landsbygden. Ladans betydelse och historia i lantbruksorten Järna är den stora inspirationen till mitt Folkets Hus. Den långa strukturen med sadeltak liknar en lada till form och färg, men formgivning och interiör skapar en ny tolkning där en samtida mötesplats för flera målgrupper står i fokus. Byggnaden består av ett yttre och ett inre skal som tillsammans skapar en ytterligare dimension när ljus och årstid påverkar de skuggor som skapas. Målet har varit att skapa en byggnad där flera målgrupper känner sig delaktiga även om de inte deltar aktivt i den aktivitet som sker. Det har möjliggjorts genom en öppning i bjälklaget som förbinder Folkets hus med ridhallen. Genom hållbara val, såväl materialmässigt som socialt, hålls landsbygden levande och kan nyttjas av flera generationer.

Abstract [en]

North of Järna at the existing horse farm Bergtorp were conditions for a new type of building which combines several activities. The importance of the horses at the chosen spot was permeated in the People's house through a riding hall with diversity and flexibility for a sustainable social life in the rural.  The significance and history of the barn in the agricultural town of Järna is the main inspiration for my People's house. The long structure with a saddle roof resembles a barn in shape and form, however design and interior creates a new interpretation where a contemporary meeting place for several target groups is the main focus. The building consists of an outer and an inner shell that together creates an additional dimension when light and season affects the shadows created. The goal has been to create a building where several target groups feels involved even if they don't actively participate in the activity that takes place. It has been made possible through an opening in the floor which connects the People's house with the riding hall. Through sustainable choices, both materially and socially, the countryside is kept alive and can be used by several generations.
