Enaforsholms mountain garden is situated in the western parts of the Swedish province Jämtland. This means a maritime climate. After a donation made by wholesaler A. W. Bergsten the country estate became KSLA property in 1937.

I uppsatsen undersöks New Age roll i Östra Mellansverige. Studien har genomförts med hjälp av djupintervjuer. Undersökningen koncentreras på den oorganiserade delen av New Age, som organiserade rörelser inom New Age räknas exempelvis Wicca och Asatrosamfundet, vilka exkluderas i undersökningen. Som oorganiserade räknas de medlemmar som tar en aktivare roll i rörelsen än att bara läsa sitt horoskop i veckotidningar och följa utbudet av TV-serier inspirerade av New Age men som inte deltar i någon speciell grupp. New Age är en rörelse med stort fäste i västvärlden och Sverige idag.

My objective with the work, Travel Sketches, is to develop an approach to sketching as a landscape architect in connection with the field trip. Previous experiences and reference places are vital parts during the creation of new design proposals. It is by visiting and experiencing places that valuable knowledge is acquired. By sketching on site, with for example a pen and paper, a bank of reference objects will be established as well as an understanding of their practical success. Experiences and sketching are the basic tools of an architect.

Utan vatten inget liv. Människor är beroende av rent vatten för sin överlevnad. I många länder orsakar idag bristen på rent vatten sjukdomar och för tidig död. Världens problem med sötvatten i form av brist och svåra föroreningar orsakade av människan kan te sig kolossala. Befolkningsökning och ändrade levnadssätt påverkar.

The European history of bath has its roots in the Greek culture about 2500 years ago. In every Greek town was situated at least one center of culture, a gymnasium, that contained bath establishements, areas for physical training, restaurants, librarys and readingrooms. Already 400 B.C. Hippokrates, founder of the art of healing, spoke for the waters important qualities in medical treatements. After the Greeks the Romans overtook and maintained the polished manners of bathing, and thanks to them the culture spread to the north of Europe. During the middleages the art of swimming was well respected among soldiers and knights, and was frequently practised in tournament games and competitions. At the same time the bathhouses were developed in the towns of Europe.

AbstractThis report has been developed in cooperation with Peab Region Bostad Göteborg, mentor at Krook& Tjäder (through Chalmers), and examiner at Chalmers University of Technology. The report is the result of a research of a building project, constructed by Peab. The report is investigating and it means to identify and evaluate qualities in the dwelling and its surroundings. Its purpose is to evaluate how the residents in a chosen housing cooperative enjoy living there. It shall, with help of chosen quality aspects, identify what expectations the residents had before moving in, how they experience the dwelling and its surroundings today, and what hopes they have for the future planning of the area.

Summary The estate of Johannishus is situated in the south of Sweden and in the province of Blekinge, about 8 kilometres from the city of Ronneby. The main building together with the park represents the province´s only example of a well preserved estate environment from the early 1800th Century, and was declared as a historic monument in 1982 because of its unique role in the province. Johannishus Park has during 300 years developed in close relation to the main building, the landscape and the surrounding infrastructure. Each century and owner has had an influence on the park, which has resulted in an interesting visible cross-section of 300 years of Swedish garden history. Most noticeable today are the traces from late 19th Century, but in its oldest parts the park contains structures from the early 18th Century.

Sammanfattning: Liljebaggen, Lilioceris lilii (Scopoli) är den största skadegöraren på liljor tillhörande släktena Lilium och Fritillaria, och är ett problem i Sverige liksom i övriga Europa, Nord-Amerika och Asien. Skadan orsakas främst av larverna, men även av fullvuxna baggar, som äter på plantans blad, knoppar och blommor (Ernst, 2005). De kan orsaka allvarliga skador genom att äta upp alla blad på plantan (Gold et al., 2001; LeSage and Elliott, 2003). Biologisk bekämpning i Sverige verkar möjlig sen man har upptäckt parasitsteklar som attackerar liljebaggens ägg och larver i Europa. I de centrala delarna av Europa har Haye och Kenis (2004) funnit fyra arter av parasitsteklar som parasiterar liljebaggens larver, ichnemoniderna Lemophagus pulcher, Lemophagus errabundus, Diaparsis jucunda, och eulopiden Tetrastichus setifer. En äggparasit, mymariden Anaphes har också upptäckts, liksom hyperparasiten Mesochorus lilioceriphilus, en ichneumonid, som ofta parasiterar Lemophagus arterna. För att undersöka förekomsten av dessa steklar i Sverige gjordes insamlingar av liljebaggslarver under sommaren 2006 på olika platser i tre regioner, södra (Skåne), sydöstra (Småland och Öland) och mellersta (Stockholm) Sverige.

The goal of this work has been to search historical materials, to identify the park's historical development, to prepare proposals on measures and that work should be the basis for further research. The aim has been to train us in searching for and use of materials and to gain an understanding of the process of work with older plants. In the process we have sought and found materials in archives, through literary and oral sources, and email contacts. Because of its excellent location perched on an islet in the low landscape Näsbyholm was long a fortress. The old castle on Näsbyholm was from the late 1400s but the site was fortified much earlier. The islet was at this time completely surrounded by water and there was a drawbridge over the narrow waterline. The owners are liable since the late 1200s.

Uppsatsen är både ett teoretiskt arbete om stadsodling och en gestaltning av en köksträdgård.Under vintern 2010 åtog sig sju studenter uppdraget att skapa en experimentell köksträdgårdsom en fördjupning och vidareutveckling av 2009 års utformning av köksträdgården vidingången till Wanås skulpturpark. Mitt examensarbete består i att utifrån en jämförande studiemellan teorierna om trädgårdsstäder kring förra sekelskiftet och den nu pågåendediskussionen om hur staden ska odlas utarbeta ett gestaltningsförslag för en del avköksträdgården.Examensarbetet grundar sig i en litteraturstudie över trädgårdsstaden där jag tar avstamp iEbenezer Howards visioner om trädgårdsstäder som en lösning på de problem som uppkomtill följd av förra sekelskiftets snabba urbanisering. När trädgårdsstadsidéerna konkretiseradesi Sverige mellan 1905 och 1930 blev det i form av förstäder och egnahemsträdgårdar. Mycketav de ideologiska utgångspunkterna om självförsörjande småstäder och kollektivt ägd markgick förlorade. Jag har jämfört trädgårdsstadens ursprungliga ideal med de tankar och visionersom finns i dagens stadsodlingsrörelser.
