STUDIO THEME
What are the elements that constitute architectural practice today, and how do we practice becoming practitioners? Out of Practice sets out to take a few close looks at an entangled contemporary architectural practice by isolating selected aspects for study in order to discern their potentials and pitfalls. Out of Practice argues first, that the tools and methods used in architectural practice have significant effects on the resulting architectures as well as on the consequences of their production, and second, that past and present structures of power are embedded within these tools and methods. By attentively and playfully using, discussing and attempting to challenge them, we hope to slowly start untangling our understanding of what agency we have as practitioners. By working an embodied perspective into all experiments and working out our imagination, we will practice making ourselves aware of our own points of view and exercise our empathy.

Projects will be short and focused over the course of the academic year. By isolating one fundamental aspect/method of practice at a time and providing frameworks for how our work oscillates between production and reflection, we aim to improve our command over each method as well as deepen our understanding of histories and effects that may otherwise be overlooked. On the topic of each method, we will learn both from a representative from within architectural/building practice and a guest from another field where the same method is applied. As both deliverables and manner of work will vary significantly between projects, we intend for different abilities, inclinations and previous experience within the student group to come to light at different points of the year.

The contemporary production of buildings is to a significant degree a matter of combining readymade products. We will study the architect as shopper and use room specifications as our tool.
We reflect on speculative project descriptions by composing our own science fiction manuscripts to be acted out on site in 1:1 using bodies and props.

OUT OF PRACTICE MANUAL
Considering what aspects of architecture are habitually reviewed as well as used as reference, we look for variety in perspective through the production of written reviews on existing architectures.
Through work in groups constructing a (very) small building, we study a common building system in all its parts and functions by first building according to standard and then reconstruct.
Students individually make their own choice for an aspect of architectural practice to study, as well as decide on format for output.
SPRING SEMESTER
Curious about the effects modelling tools have on architectural production, we apply both traditional and recent methods to the making of models and mock-ups.

In order to learn more about the architect’s role in different design processes, we will be interfering with various methods, scales and formats. We will try to map out new ways for the architect to be an architect. How much and what type of architecture happens when drawing vs, surveying, shopping, imagining, construction, manufacturing or reviewing? How much architecture happens by architects or other key players? Who is the bad guy, who is the god guy and who is the architect in these processes? We ask you to take on the role of a detective in search of clues and evidence and build your case.
You will encounter other professionals that influence architectural work, and look in to architecture and design processes from other perspectives. We are certain that such knowledge will make you more confident and freethinking in your role as a designer. We ask you to put your previous agenda aside and use yourself as a data collecting research base. We believe it is a long-term investment where you will get plenty of new practical and analytical tools.
Diving into different aspects of architecture aims to give you access to a deeper understanding of your role in the profession but also to a versatile set of tools and design methods. When testing different ways to do architecture you will make mistakes and genius strikes to learn from as a designer. You will sometimes play both the role as provider and as user and have to negotiate between those roles. We want you to be brave in these exercises. Not to impress us as teacher but yourself as learning architects. This might be your last chance for a while to practice new methods to do architecture in a focused environment and get the chance to critically analyze and discuss what happened. Take that chance to strengthen both your strong and week architectural abilities. We prefer beautiful disasters in new territories rather than effortless success stories on well-known grounds!

A traditional poster presentation might be suitable for a traditional project. You will do projects, but short focused ones where we try to maximize the use of one tool or method. The question for us is how to document these projects as focused exercises but also as a common research base for us, colleagues and future architects to study. We will therefore have few specific hand ins for each exercise. That gives us the chance to be focused on one architectural aspect and to develop one representation technique to a higher level. But to make these exercises comparable and easy to read for others we want to stick to a strict format.
THE EXERCISE
We will do focused exercises with few specific hand ins for each exercise. You will be given a strict format on what to hand in. We believe it will save you time and energy to focus on the architecture but also give us the chance to have comparable projects.
THE ANALYSIS
We want you to receive data on where and when decisions are made and how much time that is spent on different parts of the design process. Careful notes will make it possible to revisit and recall. We want you to write a short analysis of each project with a maximum of 3000 characters. Be smart and use a log to remember when summarizing your process.
We strongly believe that what we produce in this studio will be interesting for others. We therefore want to make a book. The book will be written during the year, project for project and printed at the end of the year in a large enough issue so each student get one plus that we have some extra books to share with collaborators, colleagues and schools. The book will also be published online. If you for some reason don’t want to be in the book please let us know in advance.

THE PROJECT
consequence of the currently ongoing pandemic, we will not be working together in the studio. Instead, each of us will organize our own more or less temporary work space, and most of us will make this space in our home. This project intends to turn our attention to the situations of our work, surveying its environments in terms of matter, space and body.
...situating knowledge relevant to your work - where is our knowledge; who knows it and in relationship to what?
...making yourself aware of your position - what are your previous experiences and how does that effect how you understand what you are looking ...observeat?orientations
To survey existing conditions is a crucial aspect of building, whether it concerns siting a freestanding structure in a landscape or adding to existing built spaces. Through this project, we will exercise surveying as it is traditionally executed within our current context. We will apply various techniques of measuring space and matter, and site three rooms into a landscape, using things as measures of inhabitation. All measuring and drawing will be done by hand and you are to test your siting in full scale on Assite.a
situate, position, orient
- how do things around us and the tools we use orient the way we look at and understand our object of study?
We ask you to try..
week 1, exercise 1: points in space & perimeter - landscape
Measure three distinct stations/sites of your work by defining the extent of their containment as well as relevant elements in spatial relationship to each other. This measuring is easier to do with the help of a partner, but you’ll be able to figure it out on your own if preferred/necessary. Represent in plan and sections 1:20.
week 3: exercise 3: things
THE EXERCISES
Measure things that to you define your landscape and your rooms respectively. Represent in plan and section 1:1, and draw the things into your representations of landscape and rooms. This can be done without the help of a partner.
Site your rooms in your landscape by testing 1:1 on site, as well as by drawing rooms into landscape 1:50 and landscape into rooms 1:20. You will need a partner to help you measure and document.
week 2, exercise 2: containers and elements - rooms
week 4 & 5: exercise 4: cross reference
Choose a site that will serve as your landscape. Together with a partner, study your site by defining a perimeter and measuring points in spatial relationship to each other. Represent your survey in plan and sections 1:50.

POINTS IN SPACE & PERIMETER
During the studio meeting close to KTH on Tuesday September 8th, pick up your plywood sheet and find a studio colleague to help you measure your Treatsite. your sheet with a coat of gesso. Allow to dry before bringing the sheet to your site.
On site, choose a center point and one point on the periphery of your circular site. Triangulate the position of these points in relationship to a minimum of 5 elements within your radius. These elements/things are what “grounds” your survey, your center and periphery, and should be relatively easy for you to find again on your coming visits to the site. Work with your partner to measure out your points and elements in spatial relationship to each other and in relationship to the cardinal directions in plan. Notate your survey in plan on your plywood sheet. Measure and draw (on the same side of the sheet as your plan) two height profiles, both crossing your chosen center point as well as the periphery of your site on both sides of the center. Notate the position of your height profiles in the plan.
Notate/draw on one and the same side of your sheet, orienting it horizontally (landscape), north directed upwards in your drawing. Scale 1:50. You are to draw the relationships you have measured only and nothing else: points in spatial relationship to each other.
Pick up your plywood sheet and find a measuring partner. Measure and draw your site.
Make a panorama photograph showing the site from the point of view of your chosen center, camera at your eye level. From the point of view of your chosen periphery point, photograph your center. Moving from your point along your periphery (where it’s possible), photograph your center point at roughly every 2 meters. Hold your camera at your eye level for all Documentphotographs.your chosen elements/things by photographing them. Photograph your drawing at the end of each workday.
Deliverables:
- ca 30 photographs of your center from the point of view of your periphery Printed A4 in binder
- 1 panorama from the point of view of your center. Printed A4 in binder

WEEK 1 / EXERCISE 1
Pin up all deliverables on Friday September 11th. Submit all documentation material in the assigned folder on Canvas by 18.00 Monday September 14th.
- 1 plan of site, 1:50 on plywood sheet
- photograph(s) of your drawing. Printed A4 in binder
- 5 photographs of 5 elements. Printed A4 in binder
- 2 sections of site, 1:50 on plywood sheet
Introduce approximation by lines, i.e. connect your points in order to represent continuous edges. Represent cut surfaces using color fields (poche: black, white or other).
WORKSTATIONS : Through drawing, define the extent and form of three rooms within which your work for this project takes place - we will call them your three workstations. Several workstations may be located in the same spatial container (for example your living room). When you measure and represent different workstations within the same container, consider and convey how your relationship with this same container shifts as you shift workstations. In other words, draw the same container differently in your representations of the respective workstations.
All drawings represent cuts - plans and sections - and will be drawn at 1:20 scale. Measure and draw points in spatial relationship to each other. Choose placement of both plan and section cuts carefully to explore both container and elements (see “container” and “element” below).
CONTAINERS & ELEMENTS
Turn your drawing board around to draw on the side you have not drawn on previously, and draw directly on the brown MDF surface without applying gesso. Your drawing space is limited, we encourage you to experiment with overlaps as part of your exploration of both measuring and drawing.
Draw 3 rooms of your place(s) of work on the flip side of your drawing board. The rooms will be drawn in use over time. You have a total of three full workdays for this exercise. Only draw what you measure.
2
THE CONTAINER : Define the edge of the spatial containment of each workstation and represent it with one continuous line in plan and section. Include, if possible, a door or operable window, and allow it to break your containing line. Construct your line by measuring several points and connect the dots.
Measure and construct in drawing the following: the workstation where you draw, the workstation where you Zoom, and a third relevant workstation of your choice (fika and conversation? cooking and thinking? reading and people watching?).
THE ELEMENTS: Define at least three elements involved in the work at each workstation and draw them into your plan and section cuts in measured spatial relationship to your containing lines. These elements form traces of (situate) your physical presence. A chair situates your sitting body, table situates your hands working. At least two out of three elements per station are to be explored/represented at several points in time.
POINTS IN TIME : Draw each workstation at several points in time as you use them. For example, draw your operable window in several positions/ degrees of open as the days warm or cool. All points in time are to be represented in the plans and sections already constructed, so that plans and sections show one space at several points in time. Pay attention to the relationship between the position of elements and your body; if you are drawing the chair at your work table, measure and draw its position when you sit in it, as well as its position after you get up from it.

WEEK 2 / EXERCISE 2 Proposal B, Salter and Collingridge, 2018
3 WORKSTATION THINGS : Choose one thing that is essential to your activity in each of your three workstations from exercise 2. One thing per workstation - a total of three things. Some or all of these things may already be represented in your 1:20 drawings.
3 LANDSCAPE THINGS : Choose three things that are meaningful to your reading of the landscape site. If you like, all or some of these things can be the same as the five “elements” from your survey in exercise 1.
Measure and draw the selected six things in a parallel projection view on your 1200 x 800 paper, in 1:1 scale. Orient your paper vertically, in portrait things into your 1:20 and 1:50 drawings, either into the plan/ section cut or the view (elevation) of each drawing in scales 1:20 and 1:50, Makerespectively.sureyou draw all things in measured spatial relationship to all previously measured and drawn elements.

SITUATION 1:1 : Start siting your workstations by bringing your workstation things to your landscape site and your landscape things to your workstation sites, in order to test spatial relationships in full scale on both locations. If you prefer (or have to), find a way to use your 1:1 drawings (or copies of them) instead of the things themselves for all or some of your things. Use thread/rope and sticks/poles to draw full scale in all three spatial dimensions if you would like to test containing boundaries of your workstations on site.

SCHEDULE
The production of architecture relates to futures in several ways. Buildings - in the context we are situating this project within - are conceived and realized through a process dependent on speculative representation: projections. Most buildings also have a projected lifespan, and consequently we conceive of them as performing not only in the now, but also in multiple future time contexts.
THE PROJECT
The science fiction genre is interesting in that it oftentimes both provides entertainment and offers critical reflections on present-day society. American science-fiction author and engineer Robert A. Heinlein wrote that “A handy short definition of almost all science fiction might read: realistic speculation about possible future events, based solidly on adequate knowledge of the real world, past and present, and on a thorough understanding of the nature and significance of the scientific method.”(1), while Donna Haraway states: “...science fiction writing becomes not illustrations of arguments or thinking, but the thinking itself (...) it IS the theoretical practice. (...) some of the best thinking is done as storytelling“(2)
Speculative architecture project descriptions are produced for a variety of purposes and by authors who have different roles and stakes in the architecture described. Architects describe their proposals to clients and juries, to each other and to future readers through publications. We tend to use a specific language, acquired though interactions with other players in architectural practice and discourse.
Speculative Projections
Novel: Imagination and Social Criticism, Heinlein, Robert A.; Cyril Kornbluth; Alfred Bester; Robert Bloch, 1959

I think the reason I worked partly with axonometry, as well as elevation has been due to what is best suited to represent the object, as well as the relationship to the size of the paper. Since some objects contain a higher degree of complexity, I have simplified the volumes into smaller components to be able to easily draw the shapes within the framework of the parallel projection.
I worked with sketch paper. An idea from the beginning was to work with overlaps to be able to build up different layers of information, due to lack of time, I worked with a sheet. The advantage of sketch paper personally, I think, is that it creates a more indefinable representation due to the paper’s structure and transparency. Therefore, I tried to work with the sketch as part of the representation with different degrees of clarity in the lines. An example is that I press harder where I find information of interest and leave certain lines blank on the paper.

If it wasn’t for the pipes still sticking up out of the ground or the steel hatches it would be hard to recognize. The first drawing was found over three years ago and at first they didn’t think much of it. Perhaps it was some sort of ancient writing or a depiction of everyday objects at the time. It wasn’t until the second drawing, the board, was found a year later that they started believing. The two drawings somehow referred to each other and it took the group many months to decipher the true meaning of the drawings. This is it!

Trough the process of measuring I noticed the important use of your own gaze and your bodily experiences as a tool. To measure is both a physical and a mental practice. Your perception is ground for the reduction you use to make the drawing. The drawing is a representation of reality and the representation is off course colored by your own former experiences. Time and movement has also been crucial in the work process. The drawings are not frozen in time, showing only one action, instead you can read overlaps of different moment at the same time. This way the drawing becomes a more true representation of how we live our life, in constant movement. In the plan and sektion it is shown as overlapping, an ongoing timeline.

My project site is an anonymous rocky forest grove that is soon going to face the same fate as the plot outside my window. The land area was left over when residential areas in the suburbs were planned. Despite its origin of non purpose it is not a wast land, instead it is used a great deal for play and for recreation for the residents of all ages. It is also home for plats and animals adapted to this mini-forest environment. If you just look on a map it can seam like these green islands in the suburbs are dividing the residential areas but in fact they are the glue that sticks them together. I have chosen this site because it does not have a specific identity. There are many places like this but they are now rapidly disappearing. When new residential houses are built on these sites, the suburb gets filled upp, all planed and no space is left for play and the unpredictable.

At those times I reached a hand over the fence and stroked a furry neck. In hindsight I realize that he must have been hoping for food. And all he got in return for all his troubles were pats on the head. He must have been disappointed. Not that it matters now. Like everyone else he has disappeared.
I used to think that I claimed too much space here due to the glances and comments from the people passing by. Now my things are spreading out in all directions without barriers of any kind. There is no one to question me now so the possibilities are endless. But the novelty has worn off. No matter if it would mean listening to endless complaints and whining I long to hear the voice of another person. Talking to yourself can only take you so far.

During the second world war, seven sniper rifles were built on the top of Tantolunden in Stockholm in order to defend Årstabron and Liljeholmsbron. In April 1940, during the invasion of Denmark and Norway, the combat units were grouped in the defensive positions. Totally, the facility was manned by 47 soldiers. What happened that day is still unclear but what is known is that only 46 soldiers returned home.

Images are often used in the architectural production, most often as a visualizations of the proposed final outcome based on existing drawings. Image making has become considerable easier to make due to moderns tools. Especially collages due to the invention of the copying machine and later through digital cameras and computer programs. Can these powerful tools be used for more than just visualizing a final result of a drawing process? Can these tools provide a powerful design process in them self. Can a design process start with speculating in images that becomes more and more describing?

The act of collaging often include taking something already existing and putting it in a new context. This act often includes copying or borrowing others work. In this course we will both study the technique of collaging as well as study copying and try to define that fine line of when honoring by borrowing becomes steeling.

A sequel is a work of literature, film, theatre, television, music or video game that continues the story of, or expands upon, some earlier work. In the common context of a narrative work of fiction, a sequel portrays events set in the same fictional universe as an earlier work, usually chronologically following the events of that work
Collage nr 2: Do a cover of a favorite building, thing or site that would fit your site, how would Parthenon look at your site in 2020?
When other professions do homages, samples, sequels and covers architects just steal. Or why do we never see any of the above expressions in architecture. In this exercise we will test all of them by the method of collaging. Find a site to improve that is a close enough to reach at any time during this corona pandemic. Make an improvement in form of a photomontage/collage, meaning add your improvement as a picture into a photograph of your site. The montage should clearly show the existing context and what is new, Make one collage with each method below in focus.
Cover versions (as the term is now used) are often contemporary versions of familiar songs. For example, “Singin’ in the Rain” was originally introduced by Cliff Edwards in the film The Hollywood Revue of 1929. The famous Gene Kelly version was a revision that brought it up to date for a 1950s Hollywood musical, and was used in the 1952 film Singin’ in the Rain. In 1978, it was covered by French singer Sheila, accompanied by the B. Devotion group, as a disco song, once more updating it to suit the musical taste of the era. During the disco era there was a trend of taking well known songs and recording them in the disco style. More recently “Singin’ In the Rain” has been covered and remixed by British act Mint Royale for a television commercial for Volkswagen.
Collage nr 1: Do a sequel on the previous great intention of the site, Photoshop your site into 2020.
KTH-ARK ÅK 4-5, OUT OF Anders Berensson,

Collage nr 4: Do a homage to a favorite architect, What would they have done here? Photoshop something that would honor your idol.
Collage nr 5: Just improve the site with a Photoshop collage of a well needed improvement.
In music, sampling is the reuse of a portion (or sample) of a sound recording in another recording. Samples may comprise elements such as rhythm, melody, speech, sounds, or entire bars of music, and may be layered, equalized, sped up or slowed down, repitched, looped, or otherwise manipulated. They are usually integrated using hardware (samplers) or software such as digital audio workstations.
Collage nr 3: Do some sampling architecture by using portions of other things that would improve your site, it could be everything from architecture to a banana.
Homage (/ˈhɒmɪdʒ/ or /ˈɒmɪdʒ/) is a show or demonstration of respect or dedication to someone or something, sometimes by simple declaration but often by some more oblique reference, artistic or poetic. The term is often used in the arts for where one author or artist shows respect to another by allusion or imitation; this is often pronounced like the French hommage (/oʊˈmɑːʒ/).[1]
Deliverables: 5 photomontages In one pdf, with one collage per side with a very short explanation (max 20 words) of each proposal. Plus a short text showing what proposal to continue and why. Hand in your pdf on canvas at the latest 18:00 on Monday November 2nd

The site brings together all the fun activities that exist in Heby. Everything from football to rallies, equestrian sports and even truck pulling. Why eat a piece of cake, when you can eat the whole cake yourself?
Heby square is expanding and new functions are added. The square is not only an important part for the residents and the activities that belong to the countryside but is also an important gift to the city dwellers. The square, like a rural amusement park, offers activities city dwellers would sacrifice their hands to experience.

The contemporary productions of building is to significant degree a matter of combining ready made products. Products that in a large extent is market to architects who help selling the products through specifying them in draw ings and room specifications. What are the specific quality in a product that we want to put in our buildings and we want our clients to choose. In this course we will study the architect as a shopper through shopping and reflecting on how we shop. We will use the most common architec tural tools for shopping and selling. We will do phone calls and googling to fill our room specifications, shopping’s lists and the sample board/mood boards. After an extensive shopping round we will sale our project through a readable and saleable display window of your architecture.

STRUCTURES
Whenever creating a new physical object we need to add or remove something. In what fashion we do this is an architectural aspect in itself worth exploring. In what way things grow or shrink could be seen as the DNA of a design process. In this project we will approach the field of architecture through the simple fashion of adding or removing. We will later refine our experiments into fully grown proposals of structures on a site with a purpose. For five weeks we will study, test and raise a structure from its first building stone into an object we can call Architecture.
OF PRACTICE MANUAL Berensson, Malin Heyman
THE PROJECT
Stacking: Stacking elements, stacking long strong things? Stacking short strong things? What likes being stacked and in what way?
Pouring: Pouring things in a cast? Pour it for free hand? What can be poured and become stiff? What materials likes being poured and on what or in what?
Carving: Carving space from removing volume, what likes being carved and subtracted and how do you remove thing?
Hand in: At least 3 sketch models per student to be built and presented on the tutorial on Friday, and to be refined on Monday.
KTH-ARK ÅK 4-5, OUT OF Anders Berensson,
ASSIGNMENT 1: PRINCIPLESDESIGN
There are two ways of changing a physical object, to add or remove. In what order and with what tools and materials this is done is the foundation for what the outcome of the structure will be. In the first assignment we want you to investigate some typical design principles that either adds or removes. These exercise will be done individually within the group framework of one topic. One group of four people will get one of the themes bellow. We want each student to test different building methods from the theme given your group. We want you to test these themes by building models of materials that are accessible in your homes or from a close supermarket. Keep it simple, don’t rush into architecture. Your first sketch models do not need to take into account real building methods or scales.
ASSIGNMENT 2: STRUCTURE
OF PRACTICE MANUAL Malin Heyman
We want you as a team to figure out which of your test that seems most suitable to continue for the next assignment. Could any principle used in your models be up scaled into a structure big enough to host a space for humans? Pick one or a couple of your team member’s experiments to continue working on. How would a bigger structure be built and in what materials and by what tools. Continue as a team to build individual models but this time as if it is representing a sketch of a bigger structure with some kind of real materials.
Hand in: At least 1 sketch models per student proposing a sketch of a real structure with real materials in a precise scale to be built and presented on Friday, and to be refine on Monday.
In this assignment we want you to boil your different test models down to one proposal. What will your structure do and where will it be situated, Give your structure a useful function for a place in Stockholm. Adapt it to its new function and context.
KTH-ARK ÅK 4-5, OUT Anders Berensson,
ASSIGNMENT 3: FUNCTION
Hand in: At least 1 sketch model in a precise scale showing the whole project on a site model. At least 3 Sketch models in a precis scale showing different essential parts of your structure. A draft should be presented on Friday.
3 important details in drawing or model.
What extra is needed for your functional structure to work? Does it need paint an envelope or detailing? Please go thought the necessary details for your structure to work.
3 Sketch models in a precis scale showing different essential parts of your structure.

content
Starting with a survey (to survey = to look carefully into or through; to view in detail; to examine, inspect, scrutinize; to explore) of contemporary reviews, we will attempt to discern relationships between content, form and perspectives. Moving on to examine four different references (an authority or standard referred to; a touchstone, model, or reference point) embedded within architecture discourse of and on our current localitythe Stockholm region - we are hoping to probe questions about exclusion in terms of historiography and contemporary discourse.
Over the course of this project, we will examine what forms reviewing can take (printed text, images online, etc) and what consequences the form might have on the content and impact of the piece. We will consider the role reviewing plays in the writing of architecture history.
Researching what actors and events were involved in the conception of the chosen references as well as what perspectives and voices have been given privilege in the writing of their histories, we will consider what aspects of the references consequently have been included, as well as excluded.
The practice of reviewing - examining or inspecting something again / looking back in retrospect over events / revising or going over material already studied (OED, paraphrased) - provides a platform for the exchange of ideas within and around the architecture community. From glossy magazine puff pieces to cynical satire on instagram or carefully researched podcasts, reviews present reflections on spatial production that effect the development of spatial discourse and practice.
Students will work on this project individually and participate in frequent peer-reviews. Students will present and discuss the final version of their reviews with each other, teachers and guests at a seminar at the end of the course.
“Complete and evaluate advanced architectural design tasks critically, creatively and independently, in such a way that a progression of knowledge and understanding; competence and skills; judgement and approach is demonstrated, in relation to projects previously carried out as part of the programme.”
Through reading and analyzing examples of review within a broad architectural context and studying the subjects of the review, this project aims at helping students make themselves more aware of what critical evaluation within architectural discourse is and why, by asking what subjects are studied, by whom, using what parameters.
Making the individual work a review in a format of choice encourages the students to apply their findings and analyses in such a way that the students situate their own ideas within a relevant discourse, position themselves within their chosen framework of thought and start to identify what orients them in their reading of places and architectures.
REVIEWING THE REFERENCE
“Present, visualize and discuss the completed project within a relevant discourse and a broad architectural context, by using appropriate representation techniques.”
intended learning outcomes (passages in italic from course syllabus)

A brick is typically a mass-produced building block manufactured according to standardized dimensions. Methods of mass-production involve filling clay in predetermined molds or extruding clay through a standardized profile and cutting blocks to length. According to the logic of industrial standardization: ‘the more identical copies we make, the cheaper each copy will be’ (Carpo 2018)

been used for a long time in the manufacturing industry, how do we use them in the building industry and how can we use their potential to invent new architecture?
In this course we will investigate the potential role of the architect in digital fabrication through reinventing one of the most traditional building components, the brick. With the help of 3d programs, 3d printers and an industrial robot we will try to maximize the benefits of digital fabrication in different scales and representations from drawing to modeling to real prototypes. What can a brick do when “3d printed”? How can the method of digitally fabricate a brick teach us new potential ways to generate architecture?
Curious about the effects modelling tools have on architectural production, we apply both traditional and recent methods to the making of models and mock-ups.
Brick is one of the oldest materials used for buildings. It’s most often a standardized straight building stone. Today bricks is often used as a decorative building piece in the Swedish building

EXERCISE

To think about….
What does the brick do? – what are the functions of the brick? What are its material qualities? Is it solid, porous or perforated?
How does the brick fit in a larger wall? – How does the brick connect to the next brick? Is the brick a complementary piece in a standardized system or is every brick unique within a system?
A new type of 3d printed brick and its use in a larger architectural element. We want you as a team of 2 people to think about the bricks shape and function when 3d printed and how this brick fits in a larger building element.
To design
In this exercise we ask you to reconsider the brick as a non-standard building component. What new opportunities to modify the character and properties of a brick arise when manufacturing is not restricted by a standardised format. In robotically controlled 3D printing it is not a static mould that determines the shape of the clay but the programmable motion of the robot along which the clay is extruded and built up in layers. Because the dimeter of the nozzle is smaller than the brick itself material can be strategically placed only where it is needed. The design of the print path determines both the shape and the structure of the brick.

Knitting Clay” Helena Westerlind, José Hernández (2019)
KTH-ARCH YEAR 4-5 Anders Berensson, Malin Heyman, Helena
In a conventional 3D printing workflow, design and manufacturing are distinctly separate processes in which fabrication only happens after the completion of a design. A design is developed in a 3D modelling environment and then processed in a separate program that automatically derives the print paths for fabrication. In this step the 3D model is divided into equally spaced horizontal sections in a so-called slicing operation and translated into the necessary code that is required by the machine to fabricate the part. When following this workflow, design is always restricted to the overall shape of the artefact to be manufactured while the procedural build-up of material is determined by slicer algorithms outside the reach of the architect. In this project we therefore introduce a digital tool that allows for print paths to be created and visualized directly in the 3D modelling environment. By this method, the fabrication process is designed simultaneously with the overall design of the part.
EXERCISE
Workflow
We will work in two physical scales. Desktop 3D printers (Ultimakers) will be used to materialize and evaluate print paths in scale 1:5 before making full-scale 1:1 prototypes of bricks in clay.

The project Hold Your Own is set up with the ambition to give students time to reflect on and discuss the work that gets done by their teachers during the first 9 semesters of the architecture education, as well as space to try it out for themselves before finally getting the opportunity to develop work according to their own interests and inclinations. The hope of the teachers is that this exercise will further develop the students’ critical and confident understanding of their academic context and its structure for teaching and learning, bracing them with a greater sense of control and individual agency in regards to their own work. We consider this an attempt at collectively understanding the reason for, requirements of and possibilities presented by the Degree Project.

COURSE PM
The project based pedagogy prescribed by all studio courses offered by the Department of Architecture at KTH School of Architecture and the Built Environment, produce a process where the teachers set up studio projects and the students respod to this given framework through their own work. Teachers tend to frame content, disposition and discursive reference as well as write exercises (method) where parameters and limitations are defined in order to guide the students’ learning process.
During the four last semesters of the Degree Programme in Architecture, the students are asked to complete six project based studio courses with identical course syllabi (see intended learning outcomes below) before spending the last semester of the programme on the Degree Project where the students themselves set up content, disposition and method in response to the course syllabus.

Mayweek.28th : Final review with guests.
...situating knowledge relevant to your work - where is our knowledge; who knows it and in relationship to what?
“To conceive a project – rather than a building that most often has a raison d’être – implies establishing the ground where an architectural idea can grow and take form. This is not to be understood as the project site, it is the realm – fictional or realistic – wherein the project exists. The quality of this groundwork depends on the potency of the field; on its capabilities as fertilizer for architectural thinking.” - Beate Hølmebakk.
Week 1 : Analysis of previous course PMs with special attention to schedule and exercises will be followed by the individual writing of exercises and schedules. Work to be submitted on Canvas and discussed at seminar. Week 2-5 : Students work through the exercises written during the first week and develop their individual projects. Group tutorials, peer reviews and individual tutorials with teachers will alternately help guide the work every

DIPLOMA PROJECT
The characters in the project are Lady Sculptress and Miss Torso from the movie Rear Window (1954), by Alfred Hitchcock. I have crawled under the skin of these characters in order to develop the design of their homes. Through tools such as drawings, 3D-modeling and physical model, I have been able to study different aspects of architecture from different points of view. By seeing the building through new perspectives, new hierarchies arise, the furniture emerges in a new way and level differences becomes clearer.

The gaze has a considerable role for the experience of architecture. Perspective, time, space and who’s gaze affect the reading of space and places. This is an attempt to investigate the role of the gaze in architecture through characters, narrative and different representation techniques.

As the population increases in the city of Stockholm, so does the demand for space. The value of once neglected or inefficiently used land in the city therefore needs to be re-evaluated with time. One such example of space is the winter storage of recreational boats often occupying what today has become attractive land by the water. My investi gation has focused on the potential of the strong seasonal variation in these spaces.
I’ve choosen to look at one of these situations on the island of Södermalm and propose a building that will enable not only boat storage in the winter, but also function as a community center with a multitude of potential uses during the other parts of the year.
