IN TRO DUC TION layered landscapes lofoten:

understanding of complexity, otherness and change

Magdalena Haggärde & Gisle Løkken


Introduction

With this book we aim to challenge internalized concepts about planning and investigation, which today often are too predefined, limiting and simplifying. We want to open up for alternative research, and legitimize the subjective and singular approaches as highly valid and appreciated as a foundation for an informed planning process. This way of investigating and understanding is in its nature open and non-biased, hence both the landscape, and the practices taking place in the landscape, are consistently full of individual and collective stories and experiences. The approach is a preparation for planning that takes into consideration the complexity created in both time and space, which influences our societies not only as traces of historical events, but as present realities and even expectations and becomings. concept and idea

The book is based on a master studio at Bergen School of Architecture (BAS) in the winter/spring of 2017, using the studio’s curriculum and didactic approach as framework. The studio followed a distinct idea of consistent research along different lines and concepts, all to emancipate curiosity to find possible hidden knowledge, and for detecting the real forces of change in the landscape.

Introduction This book is a framework where the students’ work forms a testing ground for the different concepts launched. It is framed around six concepts, elaborated and discussed, and has in addition several contributions from invited lecturers, participants and teachers in the studio. context lofoten

Lofoten is the history of extremes; extreme nature, extreme weather conditions, extreme natural resources and extreme survival. The islands of Lofoten float in a timeless mythical narration of battling between man and nature rooted back to the origin of human presence in these territories. The fact that Lofoten has hosted the world’s most precious fisheries of codfish for centuries in the same areas where the seabed is assumed to hide a prosperous amount of oil and gas, and now in addition experiences an extreme influx of tourists, signifies a latent and incommensurable conflict that can irreversibly change the landscape. The people living in these territories have been connected to the landscape and its resources for innumerable years. They are therefore facing not only external threats from global economies and climate changes, but also national political decisions and structural changes in the fisheries which threaten to deprive local communities of their resources. These ongoing processes have for a long time altered the way people have used and inhabited the landscape, but now more than ever it demands awareness and knowledge to build resilience – to maintain flexibility for changes – but at the same time to be in control of the changes’ impacts on the complex ecology of landscapes and societies. open minds, open landscapes, open societies

A fundamental contradiction in planning – as well as in politics and in society in general – is the dichotomy between closed and open. It might sound as a marginal issue, but in practical life, it marks a crucial difference in how society is governed and developing, the individual’s self-realization, and not least how we maintain a civilization and sustain our common ecology.


Introduction A closed society means, according to Richard Sennett; over-determined, balanced integrated, linear – while an open society means incomplete, errant, conflictual, non-linear. The closed is full of boundaries and walls (…) as the open possesses more borders and membranes. The closed society can be designed and operated top-down – belonging to the masters, as the open society is a bottom-up place; it belongs to the people. Sennett says these contrasts are of course not absolutes of blackand-white; real life is painted in greys. Yet to design the modern city well (and societies in general), Sennett emphasizes, we have to challenge unthinking assumptions now made about urban life, assumptions which favour closure. Sennett concludes that we have to embrace less re-assuring, more febrile ideas of living together, those stimulations of differences, both visual and social, which produce openness (Sennett 2013: 14).

We have to embrace less re-assuring, more febrile ideas of living together, those stimulations of differences, both visual and social, which produce openness. The concept of openness permeates the work and makes the studio an ideological testing ground for investigations and approaches in the landscape. We study the landscape through different concepts to keep an open mind to any possible understanding and knowledge – to follow, as a Deleuze and Guattarian line of flight, which challenges the usual designer’s thinking about lines – lines that are an abstract and complex enough metaphor to map the entire social field, to trace its shapes, its borders, its becomings (Petrescu 2005: 44 ). It is a perspective of survival – both historically and for the future, which makes all human encounters or interactions with nature or in society aspects of interest. It is a way of seeing society as a dynamic force or ecology that does not distinguish what is human and what is not, but as Félix Guattari does in his Three ecologies (Guattari 1989); sees ecology as an interdependent relationship between humans and their natural environment. Ecology, therefore, in the Guattarian sense is about heterogeneity, stratification and complexity, but also still about interconnections between human subjectivity, the environment, and social relations.

Ornithological map / Diving seabirds Victoria Helene Haukøya Storemyr (booklet, 17 pages)

Investigations of the conditions of seabirds such as murres, puffins and cormorants, create maps based on their migratory routes, and the resting and feeding areas for the birds, where each spot and connection might be crucial for the species’ viability. These beautiful patterns of survival are of course invisible in most other maps, as they are nonexistent as physical imprint, but once traced they give important meaning and awareness to the understanding of the landscape.

Diversity of nature Ingeleiv Andrea Utne Midtun (GIF, 129 frames)

Mapping both landscapes and seascapes with the same intensity concerning geology, biotopes, flora, habitats etc, creates a continuous map that gives new meanings, showing interconnections transcending the shoreline. Where most maps stop at the coastline, neglecting the sub-sea landscape and its importance to us, this map shows present, continuous, limitless connections.

Their essential idea is using randomness to solve problems that might be deterministic in principle. They are often used in physical and mathematical problems and are most useful when it is difficult or impossible to use other approaches. Monte Carlo methods are mainly used in three distinct problem classes: optimization, numerical integration, and generating draws from a probability distribution.

With king Sverre the first “rorbuene” was built in Kabelvåg in the 1100s. But before this time the fishermen also had need for shelter for the night. They came back from fishing for cod, turned their boats over ashore and put the sail canvas over. They made a fire, and boiled up seawater over it. First they put the roe in the boiling water, then the fish and finally the liver on top. That´s how the dish “mølje” arose, according to legend.

#5 Flexibility

Adaptive houses Victoria Helene Haukøya Storemyr (booklet, 11 pages)

The post-war type house of 80m² living space, with a 48m² footprint, built en masse in Northern Norway, is investigated through new needs and different uses: the development towards larger living spaces, the humble need for a weather protected entrance, a growing family, modernisation, changed living conditions and accessibility – telling individual stories about flexibility through adaptation, transformation and customisation of a similar and standardised starting point.

Development in living area During the last half of the 20th century, the average size is in Norwegian households decreased sharply, from 3.3 people per household in 1960 to 2.3 people in 2000. The reason for this development has primarily been extensive social and cultural changes during the period, including prolonged life expectancy and higher divorce rates. In parallel with this, a general welfare increase has lead to even larger houses. The living area in the average Norwegian house has grown from 89m2 in 1967 to 114.2m2 in 1997. The living area pr. person has increased from 29m2 per person in 1967 to 51m2 in 2000. This is an increase of 75 percent in 40 years.

After years of living on the shadow side of the mountain with the draft coming right past the house, when they saw the next door neighbour adding an extension, they decided to add the exact same small extension using their savings.

After a busy life in the larger city of Oslo, a calmer life was suitable. The small house was bought in its original standard. In the establishment of a atelier on the upper floor connection to the main bedroom the roof was lifted with a small extension in front, perfect for a reading area in front of the window.

It offers a shelter to the windy entrance area, a home office on the first floor and a patio out from the bedroom where you have the first glimpse of sun mid february.

When their oldest son turned ten he no longer wanted to share his bedroom with his younger brother. After a trial solution by adding a bookshelf as a divider, he still wasn’t pleased. The two bedrooms on the upper floor were given to the two boys. A large master bedroom was established in an extension in front of the house with a direct entry to a large patio where you could enjoy the morning coffee on nice days.

After a lifetime of a comfortable life in the small house. With kids growing up, and moving out. Family parties with grandchildren and children filling the house. At some point the lady in the house was no longer able to walk the steep stairs to the upper floors. For the first year the solution was to have a bed in the living room with a curtain to divide it from the rest of the room. But when the need for a walker occurred, the whole plan needed adapting if they were not to move. A spacious bathroom was added as an extension as well as a small bedroom. The rest of the floor plan was opened up on the ground floor.

Later, after years of having a small hallway filled with all sort of equipment, both from the boys, but also from the large collection of raincoats for the whole family, a larger hallway with a storage room connected to it was added at the back of the building.

Conglomerate Livie Avo Johansen, Victoria Helene Haukøya Storemyr (booklet, 48 pages)

A study of semiotics and typologies of Lofoten; fish racks, oil tanks, huts, bridges and pile wharfs – their materiality, functionality, location and conditions, leads to the creation of a catalogue of materials, colours, traditional building typologies and vernacular architecture. Combining the knowledge and understanding with basic human needs and well-known BAS entities; a place to wash, a place to sleep, a place to eat, a place to meet – liberates numerous possibilities of new combinations in a playful testing, re-use and transformation of traditional references to modern needs and in new settings.

#6 Reorientation

Kaleidoscope Anna Liisa Saavaste (card game, 40 cards)

Collecting stories, narratives and histories of places – the cognitive experience behind the numbers, statistics and plans – creates a storytelling game floating in time and space. It has the form of a casual archive of the landscape and its history, and shows subjective fragments of Lofoten that can be endlessly combined into new and other stories – as memories, but also as becomings and new beginnings.
