Development of a residential block south of central Stockholm.

Questions/potential development: Planning to age well – still a sustainability-measure?
How do we participate in a process in order to learn from and design in dialogue with developers and builders to find relevant solutions that benefit the project? How do we address the difference between visual and functional sustainability-efforts? How do we find a common theme/expression within a larger structure to work with variations and kinship between buildings on such a large scale – that will hold up even if the functions of the buildings evolve? How do we relate to a very specific plan created in a context that has evolved? How do we take into account and utilize the possibility of using scale in our design when envisioning buildings that will be experienced from many different perspectives all over the city? With what methods do we test architecture before it is produced to stand for (hopefully) 100+ years?
