dc.description.abstract | Rurban areas in particular are affected by the ongoing challenges through urbanization and densification. Vast and fast changes in infrastructure and prerequisites may result in a loss of connection of the individual to their surroundings, leading in turn to a minimized sense of conviviality and liveability. Third places, the social surroundings beyond the home as the first and work as the second place, can play an important role in acting as facilitators of change and act as connectors of the individual to the broader community. The main aim of the Thesis is to explore how encounters can be enabled in a rurban context, through design implementations that are informed by third place qualities. To set the ground for design, the notion of a third place was explored through different methods of theoretical and contextual analysis, to investigate how the concept of these places needs to adapt to the current discourse and the specific characteristics deriving from the context. These findings were concluded in principles for the third place, that further guided the process. In design explorations through collages and axonometric drawings the Thesis investigates in a narrative way, how the former electrical factory Kniven in Partille, can be adapted to act as a third place. | |
