  • Historical Perspectives on the Transformation of Urban Waterfront Space in Stockholm During the Twentieth Century
    A view from the wharf: historical perspectives on the transformation of urban waterfront space in Stockholm during the twentieth century Natasha Vall Abstract This article examines the development of Hammarby Lake City in southern Stockholm on a former industrial, waterfront site during the 1990s. The setting may resemble global redevelopments of urban waterfronts and docks; however, Stockholm needs to be viewed against longer cultural, aesthetic and historical influences. This includes early twentieth- century precedents rooted in civic and residential engagement with the modern and industrial shoreline. In addition, an informal human interaction with the abandoned southern Hammarby harbour evolved during the 1950s through reoccupation by an itinerant community of workers. Such forerunners have often been overlooked in dominant accounts of a late twentieth century dramatic transformation of industrial waterfronts. The article concludes that there is scope to align the theme of waterfront development more closely to the longer history of the twentieth century city. This perspective provides a useful counterpoint to the leading view of such spaces as an expression of late capitalism. 1 Stockholm has a notable vista of waterfront buildings from the early modern mercantile of Gamla Stan, the stylish modernism of Kungsholmen to the twenty first century exuberance of Hammarby Lake City. Stockholm’s old southern harbour, the rehabilitated site for ‘Hammarby Lake City’ boasts lakeshore apartments, waterside dwellings and public spaces. With vistas continually framed by water, sometimes still, sometimes moving, these have been carefully planned to draw the gaze towards the open water and the extending horizon.1 A few decades earlier we would have had a different experience.

Teosta pidetään Aallon uran käännekohtana ja yhtenä maailmansotien välisen moder- nismin kansainvälisesti keskeisimpänä teoksena. Eurooppalainen arkkitehtuuri koki tuolloin valtavan ideologisen muutoksen pyrkiessään vastaamaan yhä nopeammin teollis- tuvan ja kaupungistuvan yhteiskunnan haasteisiin. Aalto tuli kosketuksiin avantgardisti- arkkitehtien kanssa Congrès internationaux d’architecture moderne -järjestön piirissä vuodesta 1929 alkaen. Hän pyrki Paimion parantolassa, siihenastisen uransa haastavim- massa työssä, soveltamaan uutta näkemystään arkkitehtuurista. Työn teoreettisena näkökulmana on ranskalaisen sosiologin Bruno Latourin (1947–) aktiivisesti kehittämä toimijaverkkoteoria, joka korostaa paitsi sosiaalisten, myös materi- aalisten tekijöiden osuutta teknologisten järjestelmien muotoutumisessa. Teorian mukaan sosiaalisten ja materiaalisten toimijoiden välinen suhde ei ole yksisuuntainen, mikä huo- mio avaa kiinnostavia näkökulmia arkkitehtuuritutkimuksen kannalta.

In the Nordic countries the lighting conditions and the weather are constantly changing. Finally, the best way to contemplate on Scandinavian architecture is to take a look at the examples. For the farmers and fishermen things need only be simple, basic, useful and essential.

  • Architectural Research in Sweden After Le Corbusier's Projects
    DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.4995/LC2015.2015.893 Experimenting with prototypes: architectural research in Sweden after Le Corbusier’s projects I. Campo-Ruiz Escuela Técnica Superior de Arquitectura de Madrid, Universidad Politécnica de Madrid Abstract: Le Corbusier’s architectural production throughout the twentieth century served as a reference for subsequent developments in architecture and urban planning in Sweden. Some of the buildings and urban plans subsequently developed in Sweden and influenced by Le Corbusier’s ideas and projects also impacted on the international architectural scene. This research analyses how the study of Le Corbusier’s works affected projects in Sweden from the 1920s to the 1970s and how they also became an international standard. Le Corbusier’s works provided a kind of prototype, with which Swedish architects experimented in alternative ways. During the 1920s, Le Corbusier’s Pavilion de l’Esprit Nouveau and the Stuttgart Weissenhofsiedlung impressed influential Swedish architect, including Uno Åhrén, Gunnar Asplund and Sven Markelius, who later became proponents of modernism in Sweden. The 1930 Stockholm Exhibition marked a breakthrough for functionalism in Sweden. After 1930, urban plans for Stockholm and its suburbs reflected some of Le Corbusier’s ideas, such as the urban plan by Sven Markelius, and Vällingby’s town centre by Leif Reinius and Sven Backström. After 1950, Léonie Geisendorf , Ralph Erskine, Sigurd Lewerentz and Peter Celsing placed considerable emphasis on rough texture in poured concrete. Lewerentz, who admired the works of Le Corbusier, designed the churches of Markuskyrkan in 1956 and St Peter’s in Klippan in 1966, with a wider international impact.
