| dc.description | HEDGEHUGS: An Alternative Future for Loallmenningen explores public space through the ‘dead hedge’. The aim of the thesis is to increase urban biodiversity, facilitate human and other-than-human coexistence, and suggest an alternative solution to the current development plan of Loallmenningen.
Dead Hedge Experiments
Dead hedges are the antithesis to decorative hedges. They are not quite hedgerows; not quite compost piles; not quite land art. And that’s the beauty of them. Dead structures informed by the typology are developed as catalysts for urban publics to emerge. These are made of excess materials from two existing waste streams in Oslo: cuttings from tree maintenance and used timber formwork from local building sites.
Catalysts
The design proposal tests a selection of the dead structures in Loallmenningen. Six acts are suggested: mining the site, material bank, making a garden, shared shelter, a place to sit, and the service wall.
Embracing the Mess
A public place of maintenance, care, and being together is continued. | en_US |
