FJORD CITY

BERGEN NORWAY 10-11

Mohlen Pris Bergen

Discovering the qualities of a city and its synergetic life which is played on anthropological landscape, memorizing the history within its materiality and preserving the spirit with the old narrow cobblestone pathways giving you glimpse of the water.

Climbing the timid and rigid topography we come across places that were overlooking the dynamic formation of natural and anthropological boundaries, the city stretching as a carpet between the mountains, where all its imperfections have been washed off by the rain.

Walking through the city, the presence of the mountains is memorized into the water and the little town windows. The morning sun bouncing off the individual houses spread on the mountain retreat, glowing like jewels, dispersing the light into the city adding to the kaleidoscopic nature of Bergen.

LANDSCAPE EDUCATION DEMOCRACY ERASMUS FORUM, Fraising, Germany MAY17

LED, Munich

The outcomes drafted to help local authorities to engage l residents into the planning and development process.

1. Bringing people together in the landscape will strengthe their sense of belonging and identity, allowing the past an present, rural and urban landscapes to become a meaning part of their lives.

6th LE: NOTRE Institute Landscape Forum May 2017 in Freising, Germany which included the participation of 145 landscape architecture and spatial planning practitioners, educators, students and researchers from 27 countries. The forum focused on landscape and inclusion. In cross-cutting groups and field trip research, we focused on areas of the Northern Fringe in Munich, and the Mile Long Park in the subject named ‘ landscape and democracy’ led by Deni Ruggeri, lecturer at the science university in Oslo, Norway.

2. Knitting the patchwork of land and the immediate communities will bring people together in the landscape/ commons, a multi-functional system of inclusive and acces spaces for their emotional and physical support.

3. Bringing historical elements into a re-framed narratives allow the sharing of knowledge and awareness of the mea of the landscape to the communities and generate stronge identities and pride.

4. Through engagement and participation, locals will stew and plan their landscape in democratic ways, connect with landscape and with each other.

5. Letting nature—from farmland to the urban settlement— back into urban areas will require developing flexible land strategies that focus not only on development but also on promoting greater biodiversity, wildlife protection and bio
