Evaluating soundscape intentions in landscape architecture: a study of competition entries for a new cemetery in Järva, Stockholm
- 2017

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- While soundscape is increasingly acknowledged within landscape planning and design discourse, there is little research that clarifies how soundscapes are actually dealt with in landscape architecture practice - partly owing to methodological insufficiencies. This paper, therefore, describes a model for evaluating soundscape treatment in landscape design proposals, focusing on three key aspects. With the dual aim of testing the model, and learning more about how soundscape is approached in practice, the paper spotlights a major design competition for a new cemetery in Sweden. The model proved fruitful and easy to apply. It showed that only limited attention was paid to soundscape in the competition as a whole, and was a useful means of pinpointing proposals where soundscape was fully considered as a design feature; one competition entry that did so is described in the paper. Discussions cover design practice, trends in the competition and model application.

Lingering landscapes: an examination of the heterogeneous remains of welfare planning
- 2018
-
Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This paper explores how landscape can be used as a lens to understand lingering as a geographical concept. Following the European Landscape Convention, landscape is defined as “an area, as perceived by people, whose character is the result of the action and interaction of natural and/or human factors”. Thus, landscape assembles practices, perceptions and natural processes in an a-modern manner; this heterogeneity also affects its dynamics and ability to transcend the here and now of our activities. By studying the heritage of the landscape politics of the Swedish welfare society in the 1970s, we aim to illustrate how landscape and theories of landscape provides a richer understanding of lingering. This paper examines how the Swedish welfare planning of the 1970s lingers, not only in materialized structures and artefacts, but also in everyday practices and representations. The study focuses in particular on leisure planning, using examples from a Swedish town. This case is used to discuss how to understand lingering through landscape theory, how lingering actively is made by both presences of the past and attention to the past in the present by, for instance, maintenance and repair.

Att trixa genom staden – planering för ett löpvänligt stadslandskap
- 2019

Annan publikation (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- Motionslöpning framhålls ofta som en träningsform det är enkelt att komma igång med – utövandet kräver ingen dyrbar utrustning eller speciell anläggning att ta sig till. Men det är inte givet att stadsmiljön upplevs som anpassad för vardagsmotion. I detta Movium Fakta sammanfattas en studie där dagboksintervjuer utförts med stadslöpare. Ett antal råd presenteras för att synliggöra och underlätta motionslöpning inom stadsplanering.

Beyond Circular Thinking: Geographies of Transit-Oriented Development
- 2019

Ingår i: International Journal of Urban and Regional Research. - : Wiley. - 0309-1317 .- 1468-2427. ; 43, s. 786-793

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Transit-oriented development (TOD) plays a significant role within contemporary planning policies for 'smart growth' and sustainable development, particularly in Europe and North America. As a well-rehearsed practice, this planning model is due for critical assessment and improvement in terms of its ability to incorporate dynamic and heterogeneous socio-spatial processes as matters of concern. Analyses of the conditions for 'making TOD work' in the scholarly and professional literatures tend to focus on the 'node' and 'place' qualities. While elaborations on node analysis (primarily based on accessibility measurements) abound within empirical research, discussions of place-specific assets are limited in scope and often spatially bounded by the circle defined by a 10-minute walk. This essay examines the use of this generic 'circle' model, and how it normatively frames how place is understood in TOD studies. We argue that the circle enhances a Euclidean understanding of the site, which favours a static and homogeneous spatial analysis of accessibility and density rather than (other) place qualities relating to dynamic socio-spatial processes. Finally, we argue that relational geography can facilitate an analysis of place qualities beyond the circle-one in which both the continuities and shifting settings of the wider context are meaningfully taken into consideration.

Competing geographies of recreational running: The case of the "jogging wave" in Sweden in the late 1970s
- 2017
-
Ingår i: Health and Place. - : Elsevier BV. - 1353-8292 .- 1873-2054. ; 46, s. 351-357

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Recreational running encompasses more than one type of exercise. Different running practices offer different, even opposing, conceptualisations of the role of the environment. As illustrated in this paper, historical studies can uncover and explain these variations. By studying the clash between two practices in Sweden in the 1970s - the newly translated idea of North American jogging and an already established tradition of fitness running - this paper qualifies the difference between them and illustrates how they assembled competing geographies. The paper argues that current planning would benefit from acknowledging this multiplicity because different forms of running offer complementary strategies for inclusivity.

Farming ruins: a landscape study of incremental urbanisation
- 2018

Ingår i: Landscape Research. - : Informa UK Limited. - 0142-6397 .- 1469-9710. ; 43, s. 575-586

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This study demonstrates a need for landscape studies of urbanisation in which the slow process of ruination and reuse is considered. The paper argues that a focus on maintenance and repair facilitate symmetrical studies in which the dismantling of former uses and the establishment of new activities and regulations are examined as an incremental process. This is illustrated here using the case study of a contested development project at the fringe of town Skurup, Sweden. The study traces partial dependencies of past planning, arguing that current farms have been successively separated from their previous networks of farming and, in the process, have become entangled in a complex interdependency of urban growth strategies dating back to the 1970s. The case provides a richer understanding of the contested landscape; it demonstrates the insufficiency of new growth boundaries, but also the potential to re-assemble the place, whether for farming or sustainable urban development.
