Group 9 WEEK ONE
Triple runs
The model and the titel refeers to the group concept, with its three structures crossing the denced city, combining urban structures with the blue and green elements surrounding the city. Bringing the four models togethat and talking about the project as a group, we realized that we in general want to reconnect the city and create a distinct center with clear and defined structures leading to the surrounding areas. We will do this by working with the expression and design of the canals at certain locations, which is reflected in the model as three distinct lines and a dense city center. The concept is based on the three words; ‘movement’, ‘connection’ and ‘meetings’.
“Movement, Connection & Meetings” The word movement, refers to the weak structure of the city, and a need for more guidance in the streets and a greater variety of ex-
periences and opportunities as you move along the canals and houses. There is also a need for a greater coherence with the surrounding green and blue areas, but also within the very center, across channels and roads. Meetings refers to the random meetings that occur between people, as well as between the urban areas and nature, historic structures and modern structures. Working with our conpect we have chosen to strenghten three lines across the center. The model shows these lines connecting respectively the green, blue and urban areas of the city, creating variation in urban areas. These three lines will now be explained more detailed.

Wild blue-green run
The wild blue-green run forms a connection between the wetlands to the green area to the east. The line runs along the northern canal and provides visibility from the railway and into city.

Urban-green run
This line connects the city center to the two green areas, east and west of the city, bringing the urban into the surrounding areas. The line runs from the forest, through the center, between the high school area and the camping area into the wetland. Here we would like to create a greater accessibility and opportunity for stays and meetings.

Urban-blue run
The urban line running along the southern canal allows for greater coherence between the northern and southern part of the city By creating different spaces and meeting point in the city, with a more urban character, along the canal, you create the opportunity for people to interact.

Group 9 WEEK TWO
Four runs & an edge
The model and the titel refeers to the group concept, with its four structures crossing a denced city, combining urban structures with the blue and green elements surrounding the city. The idea of this project is to reconnect the city by working with existing structures. To create a dence citycenter with clear and defined structures leading to the surrounding areas (Diagram 1.) This we will do by working with the expression and design of the canals at certain locations, which is reflected in the model as three distinct lines and a dense city center. The fourth run is combining different areas within the city. The concept is based on the three words; ‘movement’, ‘connection’ and ‘meetings’.
There is also a need for a greater coherence with the surrounding green and blue areas, but also within the very center, across canals and roads.
First group concept model The word movement, refers to the weak structure of the city, and a need for more guidance in the streets and a greater variety of experiences and opportunities as you move along the canals and houses.
“Movement, Connection & Meetings”
Working with our concept we have chosen to strenghten four lines across the center. Diagram 2 shows these lines connecting respectively the green, blue and urban areas of the city, creating a variation in spaces.
Meetings refers to the random meetings that occur between people, as well as between the urban areas and nature, historic structures and modern structures.

Urban-blue run
The urban run is the most urban structure were we want to connect two very different parts of the city. An important historic area with a factories and largescale shops.
Barcelona thoughts
Here is something about our trip and what we got from it.. - Repeating arcitectural elements - The plantingstrategies - A more clear and dense city edge - Working with the terrain - Meetings between elements - Variety of different pavements

The redefining also tells about an hierarchy within the city. As an additional layer we want to highlight the already excisting historical lines that goes through the city. Each line has its own story to tell and they all reflects the wide range of qualities that are represented in Frederiksværk; dense forrest, open wetlands, narrow canals, steelwork history, city life and water.
