The Royal Artillery Grounds Landscape Studio 18 is going Back to The Future on a mission to plan and combine (transform with) three iconic landscape typologies: a Garden, a system of paths and a monument. With this classic combination the project aims to unfold future urban potentials along the edges of the proposed site and to combine it with a concept of capital nature and its wildlife, its human and spatial resources in what we will call The Royal Artillery Grounds.

The site

The future Royal Artillery Grounds will be located in the northern part of Amager Nature Park (former commons, wet meadows and shallow water along the eastern coast of Amager). The site is chosen for its proximity (less than 3 km) to the very centre of capital Copenhagen. It is a unique situation in any European metropolitan context. This place, more than any other place in the metropolitan landscape, holds exceptional historical layers, an array of natural resources and wildlife but also significant environmental -and accessibility issues.

“the northern part of the park is not well protected [...] It is in this light that our professional motivation for working in this exact landscape should be seen and understood” Although a wide range of plans and political decisions between the state and 3 municipalities has secured most of Amager Nature Park from further urbanization the northern part of the park is not well protected. This economically attractive land has been challenged more than once with urban development and like few other places this landscape is a ‘hot pot’ of conflicts of interest. It is in this light that our professional motivation for working in this exact landscape should be seen and understood.

Back to the Future – a strategic way of thinking

The notion of establishing a future royal garden in Copenhagen is almost bizarre. Royal gardens are associated with something that happened ‘way back in the day’. However, the concept of a drawing on the idea of a royal garden has two aims. The first is to acknowledge and re-introduce the endless references (also in detail elements)

“a future royal garden in Copenhagen is almost bizarre [...] we want to draw on the advantages of the power of what lies in the word – Royal – as a strategic instrument for future change.” of historical landscapes and their value as public space in any metropolitan area. Secondly we go back because we want to draw on the advantages of the power of what lies in the word – Royal – as a strategic instrument for future change.

Capital Nature

Nature is mostly connected to notions of good and in balance. However, nature must be more. With Landscape Studio we wish to introduce and examine a future extension to this human idea. Therefore Capital Nature defines nature as an unreliable witness. Something we also fear or mistrust as it also mirrors our failed attempt to overcome and outsmart nature when we can. In the studio we will challenge the concept of any nature for the purpose of describing, understanding and expanding ideas of what nature is in the future and thus beyond its prevailing metaphors.

The assignment The assignment is to plan, design and communicate a detailed vision for a future royal garden (The Ar-

tillery) in a new landscape context (The Grounds). The assignment poses a ‘rough’ location in the northern part of the Amager Nature Park (see ill’s.). With the concept of an emerging ‘Capital Nature’ the assignment must also contribute an on-going examination of nature in the city. The combination of large-scale contextual dedications and small-scale interventions relates directly to the professional span between the two

“Capital Nature also defines nature as an unreliable witness.” disciplines – Planning and Design. Thus, each proposal must elaborate on the relation to its urban context and site-specific cultural heritage. Furthermore the proposal must consider principles for sustainability on a local level depending on the proposed idea.

The design program aims to secure small- scale functions and local identity. Interventions along and in proximity to existing (or future) bicycle routes, and pedestrian path can be identified, designed in greater detail and used for such proposes.

Landscape archetypes and program specifications

The conceptual archetype of the Garden (hortus), the Path (access) and the Monument (the built) defines both the aim and the tools for the assignment. Their inherent potentials as agents for transformation (and thus as means to study the site) are to be elaborated in this studio and developed (making and unmaking) in the drawings. These landscape archetypes can be understood and worked with separately and/or as tightly interconnected wholes. Abstractions and stylized forms of these landscapes are expected and welcome.

“Landscape Studio 18 takes a swing at the classics and with a strategic approach of Back to The Future the outcome will be urban landscapes of the future.” The Garden is a dedicated place with a defined edge. Like a membrane it has an inside that protects it from the outside with its enclosed edges.

Entrances make access to the garden a possible. The garden is a destination. The Path is access. Access it everything. The Monument is defines memory, orientation and navigation. Some monuments can be buildings. The landscape archetypes should be elaborated and specified for each proposal. The following program specifications can be seen as inspiration to expand your ideas: A limited number of buildings and monumental structures can, depending on the proposed ideas, be identified and

used; entrances to the garden; opening hours; cafe pavilions; a working botanical/house; a parterre; horticultural and pastoral typologies (incl. movement and designated places); structures that imitate or otherwise communicates cultural heritage (such as the shooting range or the old coastline), water cleaning facilities, recycling, sport, wildlife and flora.

economical and cultural significance in our cities today. A special focus should be given to the edge of the urban fabric along Artellerivej and to Ørestaden and to Amager Nature Park. Landscape Studio 18 takes a swing at the classics and with a strategic approach of Back to The Future the outcome will be urban landscapes of the future. Good luck and may the force be with you – space troopers!

THE OFFICE. Studio Versailles, 2nd floor.

Landscape Studio is a Method We want to be where language is made. Everything we make, built, write, unmake and rebuild in the office evolves around this endeavour. Poets must write - we must draw. This is Landscape Studio.

Landscape Studio - Ideas

Ideas are the parent of change and the fuel that drives creative work in Landscape Studio. However, ideas

are never enough. In the studio you are to embark in what matters is how ideas are achieved, how they are transformed from language into concepts, strategies and to physical form. Defining such a specialized process warrants a unique direction in which architectural ideas are developed beyond imagination and metaphor. So, in developing our designs we continuously en-

courage that the idea must expand and sediment itself in the drawing to achieve direction. Ideas are shared fast. In the studio, we experience the force of contingency and the improbable combinations of events when ideas are exchanged between fellow designers. However, the result can be messy when ideas are lost in translation or they fall into the category of

good intentions. The design process suffers if the exchange has no direction and no medium that supports observation and inquiry. Therefore, we try to slow down the exchange of ideas at certain intervals in order to achieve the desired expansion. Analogue drawing techniques and simple models play central roles in this process and they are both slow and fast at the same time.

Landscape Studio Drawing

Design Conversation is a Landscape Studio method preformed under a powerful vertical projector in a curated room we call thick space. However, it is still drawing and we still use pencil and paper when we work. The drawing is the medium through which we are connected to the idea. It can be a fragile situation. We make hand drawings to perform, repeat and rehearse in order to construct the physical grammar needed

to transform vocalized language into drawings that can perform the idea. It is often iconic landscape typologies that we find in our language. Through these repeated activities and actions the idea can expand beyond the metaphor. We draw structures of the landscape typologies: the entrance (what kind? primary or secondary? context? how many?), a path (where to? how wide? the material? soft or hard?) and a forest (scale? what kind? how do you establish it? do we have a reference? draw the dots!). We continue to a

thicket, a clearing, a row of trees, buildings and etc. We draw every word we can and then we write a new word. Although the conversation works as a forward movement, the mediation between computer and hand drawings - the hybrid nature of pencil and projected image – allow us to turn back, rewind, zoom in and examine. We continue with the making and unmaking of the image. We look at it again. We draw and withdraw. Welcome to Landscape Studio.

Course calendar Phases and places

The assignment is phased (curated through our activities), open and with few initial limitations and can be divided into three overall phases. In the first phase the assignment is to produce a collision (combination of collage techniques, drawing, notation and visionary thinking). This phase can be seen

as an overall explorative study of the edges, the garden, narrative, problems and potentials – creatively elaborated in conceptual ideas for change. The second phase is to develop a master plan. The third phase focuses on selected sites within the master plan to develop, explore and to detail their inherent potential for change. To support the

assignment and the learning outcome the course entails fieldwork and reference studies in Paris and Bordeaux, France. The calendar shows the scheduled activities. Since the course is a full time course, it is expected that the students/groups, outside of the scheduled activities, find the necessary time for preparation.

NOTE. Be aware that changes may occur. Therefore remember to check your emails every morning or afternoon.
