Book chapter (other academic/artistic)abstract
- The AIDAH research project has been built upon the basic assumption that, confronted with the major challenges that societies face in terms of housing needs, an ageing population and radically changing healthcare conditions, architectural interventions must be inventive, audacious and explorative in their approaches. At the foreground of our work has therefore been the notion of a health promoting architecture. Today's solutions must incorporate and enable the potential opportunities and the still unknown needs and desires of tomorrow. For one thing, this is reflected in today’s comprehensive requirements for social sustainability; the built environment should last for a long time and serve a vast variety of needs, securing longevity and persistence. AIDAH has worked a lot on the foundation of the evidence-based knowledge that has developed during the last decades, concerning architecture's potential for health promotion, wellbeing and stress reduction.

Social sustainability in residential solutions
- 2016
-
In: Paper proceedings, Sustainable Housing 2016, Porto, Portugal. - 9789898734204
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Currently there is a mounting demand on housing providers to contribute to sustainability in residential situations and to deliver practical demonstrations and experiments in this field. One such example in Sweden has been initiated as a research based project development process by a cooperative housing association in Göteborg, Riksbyggen EF, also a major actor on national level. During a period of three years a transdisciplinary collaboration, involving Chalmers Architecture and the University of Gothenburg, a building project comprising more than a hundred flats has been defined and is now going to be built starting November 2016 at Chalmers University campus site. The collaborative project, the so called Positive Footprint Housing claims a future realization of a number of radical implementations in a design strategy of significantly raised residential resilience implemented in Brf Viva, as the name given. Examples range from a wide variety of components like sharing of electric car pool, limited parking lots, extensive application of rooftop pv-cells and electric production to the introduction of low cost starter flats for young residents and structural flexibility of apartments in addition to extensive common facilities like a winter garden for parties, meetings and plant cultivation. Efforts to create social sustainable solutions have been both procedural and substantial in character. This paper will take a critical stance towards this endeavor building upon related conducted research with insights and observations of authors from participation within this pro- cess of research informed residential projective realization. The focus has been set on unfolded and identified crucial social aspects of sustainability and related architectural residential solutions in particular of long term alterability and flexibility. Our study shows the inherent vagueness of general sustainability formulations, especially concerning social sustainability, and the importance of doing research directly in the conflicting social fabric where sustainability goals are negotiated and given a concrete significance.

Book chapter (other academic/artistic)abstract
- Architecture for Residential Care and Ageing Communities confronts urgent architectural design challenges within residential innovation, ageing communities and healthcare environments. The increasing and diversified demands on the housing market today call for alterability and adaptability in long term solutions for new integrated ways of residing. Meanwhile, an accentuated ageing society requires new residential ways of living, combining dignity, independence and appropriate care. Concurrently, profound changes in technical conditions for home healthcare require rethinking healing environments. This edited collection explores the dynamics between these integrated architectural and caring developments and intends to envision reconfigured environmental design patterns that can significantly enhance new forms of welfare and ultimately, an improved quality of life. This book identifies, presents, and articulates new qualities in designs, in caring processes, and healing atmospheres, thereby providing operational knowledge developed in close collaboration with academics, actors and stakeholders in architecture, design, and healthcare. This is an ideal read for those interested in health promotive situations of dwelling, ageing and caring.

Architecture in effect : vol 1. Rethinking the social in architecture: making effects
- 2018
-
Editorial collection (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Architecture in Effect presents research on the co-constitution of architecture and the social by addressing concrete problems and forwarding explorative theories and methodologies. The book compromises a wide-ranging collection of essays emerging from a multi-year research collective that has brought together partners from Sweden, the Nordic countries, the United Kingdom, Europe and the United States.The socially oriented perspective of Volume #1, Rethinking the Social, is complemented by discussions of architectural and transdisciplinary theories and methodologies in Volume #2, After Effects. Together these twin volumes reflect on topics such as the utopian idea of a welfare state, the role of intersubjective and non-human points of view, and the impact of historical and current images on the making of realities. The task of these books is to present a wide range of research topics that combine historical, material, and critical research approaches that respond to our current crises and challenges. Ultimately, this enables new modes of knowledge production within architecture to be advanced in its relation to societal transformation.

Architecture in Effect Vol #1(2) : Rethinking the Social in Architecture – Making Effects.
- 2019
-
Editorial collection (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Architecture in Effect is a substantial double volume that compiles 50 essays emerging from the architectural research environment of Sweden and drawing on a complex matrix of international collaborations. A central premise of the collected research is to question the relationship between the built environment and societal norms and to interrogate architecture’s role in these co-constitutive processes. The Architecture in Effect project is concerned with how contemporary political and environmental conditions place specific demands on society and on the everyday life of individuals. Architectural researchers have the capacity to both initiate and criticize architectural production and culture amidst existing and emerging societies. Architecture in Effect is published by Actar Barcelona New York (2019). Rethinking the Social in Architecture: Making Effects Volume 01 Edited by Sten Gromark, Jennifer Mack, Roemer van Toorn That architecture serves as the setting for social actions, activities, and content is not a new idea. That the architectural project can precipitate crucial social change, even transgression, is a far more modern and disputed claim. Spatial design in society has recently shifted away from universal solutions toward satisfying specific market orientated interests. The time is now to reclaim architecture’s role in promoting political, economic, ecological, and cultural transformations. The radicality of architecture is renewed in the exploration of novel and unforeseen possibilities: making effects.

In: Architecture in Effect vol #1(2) Rethinking the Social in Architecture: Making Effects. ; , s. 18-35
-
Book chapter (other academic/artistic)abstract
- Architecture in Effect is a substantial collection of essays emerging from the Swedish research environment of the same name. While it takes its point of departure from within the specific context that is Sweden, it includes contributions from authors based in the Nordic context, in the United Kingdom, Europe and the United States. A central premise of the collected research is that the built environment and societal norms are co-constitutive and that architecture as a discipline and as a professional practice plays a fundamental role in this relationship. Contemporary political and environmental conditions place specific demands on society and on the everyday life of individuals. There persists, as such, an obligation for actors within the discipline of architecture to contribute to a rethinking of the situated knowledges within architecture by engaging in trans-, cross-, and inter-disciplinary studies. Architectural researchers have the capacity to guide and criticize thinking on architecture and its vital material relations amidst existing and emerging societies. The socially oriented perspective of Volume #1, Rethinking the Social , is complemented by discussions of architectural and transdisciplinary theories and methodologies in Volume #2, After Effects . Together these twin volumes reflect on topics such as the utopian idea of a welfare state, the role of intersubjective and non-human points of view, and the impact of historical and current images on the making of realities – and how such themes are intertwined with the development of architecture. The collected essays draw on historical and contemporary architectural situations, as seen from socially oriented perspectives and through the use of innovative methodologies and theories. A special feature included in the collection is a heteroglossary, a lexicon that defines productive concepts for architectural research that the contributing authors activate across the two volumes. Professor Dana Cuff, UCLA, USA, has provided a perceptive foreword for the double book project. The task of these books is to present a wide range of research topics that combine historical, material, and critical research approaches that respond to our current crises and challenges. Ultimately, this enables new modes of knowledge production within architecture to be advanced in its relation to societal transformation.

Converted Residences – Re-Inventing Urban Heritage. A Sociological-architectural Enquiry – the Fahle Case
- 2010
-
In: 24th AESOP Annual Conference, Finland, 7 – 10 July 2010.
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- This paper addresses the question of the nature and the forces behind emerging modern ways of residing asdemonstrated on a specific situation of re-invention of cultural heritage within a process of gentrification. Focusing on constructions of urban identities and their manifestations in residential architecture our explorative inquiry intends to widen the understanding of the becoming of symbolic capital informing identity building upon interrelated individual personalized aspirations for desired life quality in residential situations and that of singular architectural inventions. The methodological profile for this research is the application of trans-disciplinary analysis of social and architecturalpractices drawing primarily on the ontological views of social physical duality informing creative principles of social constructivist epistemology. By applying qualitative research methods, combining architectural interpretative observation with in depth interviewing the paper attempts to unfold aspects of residential identity building within the subtlety of intertwined relations forming between resident perceptions and architect conceptions.
