Landskapskaraktärsanalys - ett försök i Sverige :
As the European Landscape Convention is brought into action, planning in Sweden has got to become increasingly considerate of the landscape and its character. To render this possible, a basic requirement is that we find a functional method for analysis.
The Landscape is a synthesis of the interplay between place and man. It is made up of our physical environment and shows the result of our actions throughout history. Our surroundings affect us in many ways, financially as well as emotionally. This is why an analysis of the landscape has to be inclusive of many types of information.
I have performed a landscape analysis, according to the British Landscape Character Assessment-method, in Svedala kommun.
Layers of land : the palimpsest concept in relation to landscape architecture
This paper researches how the palimpsest concept is used in relation to landscape, and how it can function as a tool within landscape architecture. Palimpsest originally refers to old parchment handwritings, where new text has been applied on top of effaced, but still discernable, earlier writing. Superimposition of information is the core of the palimpsest concept, used within a range of scientific as well as cultural fields. The purpose of this paper is to find how a landscape palimpsest can be distinguished among the many different layers of landscape, such as historical or cultural, and to examine the potential use of the concept in theory and practice of the landscape architecture field. The study is conducted as a literature survey, examining the use of the palimpsest concept within academic works related to landscape.

BIM för landskapsarkitekter : virtuell design och kommunikation
The purpose of this thesis is to describe what Building Information Modeling, BIM, could mean for landscape architects, and also hopefully to make sense of the possibilities and problems of the system. BIM is about virtual design and is based on all consultancy groups in the design team modeling in 3D. Intelligent objects and metadata, such as price and material, are used. The project group has a common interchange format for simple sharing of information. To get an idea of how the situation with BIM for landscape architects looks like today, I collected information mostly through interviews.
Välkommen : förslag till ny stadspark i Göteborg
The landscape is a great asset for Göteborg as a city and places in the landscape are
much used by the public. This diploma work deals with the question of how nature
in Göteborg can become more accessible and how a place in it can be supplemented
with new landscape elements. It is a proposal for a new urban park at Björlanda
peninsula in the western part of Hisingen, Göteborg, which today belongs to
the Swedish Armed Forces and is a part of the Nature-2000 area "Nordre älvs
estuarium". The reason for choosing this place is that it is the only area around the
costal area in Göteborg that has not been built on and that it contains a very varied
landscape.
The proposal is presented as three different broschures, dated 10-20 years ahead:
A map of a possible system of urban parks including a detail of such a park,
Västra Hisingen (the western parts of Hisingen)
The idea with a system of urban parks is to make the landscape generally more
accessible and maybe open it for people that do not use it today.
A broschure of the central area Välkommen, with my design proposal for an
urban park at Björlanda peninsula
The design aims to utilize the landscape elements water, mountains, vegetation
and sky and to intensify the experience of them.
A flora for Välkommen that shows a selection of plants for the design proposal.
Från ett tunt lager av modernitet till ett sekulärt socialt etos - Akademiska berättelser om sekularism och modernitet i Turkiet mellan 1980 och 2007
This study analyzes academic narratives about modernity and secularism in Turkey between 1980 and 2007 using the concepts historical orientation, narratives of modernity and landscape of modernity formulated by the German theoretician Jörn Rüsen and developed by Swedish historian Martin Wiklund..
DET HÄR ÄR OCKSÅ GRAFISK DESIGN - Ett bidrag till diskussionen om ornamentik, funktionalism och kvinnors marginalisering.
This thesis examines the relationship between the marginalization of ornamentation
during functionalist modernism and the effect it had on female graphic design practice.
By examining the historiography from a gender and feminist theory of history I
present a different way of interpreting, not only the history of graphic design but also
the concept of graphic design. This thesis does not reach a conclusive result, instead
it sets the foundation for further research and illustrates the opportunities that we as
graphic designers have to benefit contemporary graphic design by critically reviewing
and redefining our history through a diverse historiography..
"Gå, Franciskus, och bygg upp min kyrka" : Om tiggarkonventens betydelse för skapandet av staden belyst genom urbaniseringen i södra Halland
This essay deals with the relationship between the mendicant movement and the urbanization during the thirteenth century. The aim has been to explore the significance of the Dominicansand the Franciscans for the creation of an urban landscape. This was made through the study of the urbanization process in southern Halland focusing on the town of Halmstad where the friars were established. The importance of the mendicants was also studied through their absence in the towns of Laholm and Falkenberg. To achieve this investigation in a contextual perspective material from different areas was used such as archaeology, history and history of science and ideas.
Förflutna landskap idag : en diskussion om begreppet landskap
The first part of this essay focuses on how we relate to the landscape at the international and the national level today. The landscape convention is presented and compared to actual current Swedish policies. Different definitions of landscape are discussed. The second part renders the landscape in different archaeological contexts. The central theme is the attempt to investigate if and how we can approach prehistoric man by looking at the landscape as a socially constructed concept.
Om associationer till vatten
This paper is intended to provide a picture of which associations water can wake in the human
mind from the perspectives of garden history as well as from that of environmental
psychology. I hope to paint a fairly broad picture of our perception of water that can serve as a
basis for discussion and as a starting point for different forms of design work in landscape
architecture. The historical perspective emphasizes the importance of water as a condition for
the emergence of gardens and in a wider perspective the importance of water in early cultures.
Also, I describe a picture of how water has been used throughout the history of gardens from
early Egypt to the baroque era. The garden history analyzed from an art historical perspective
gives a picture of human associations to water, and the history behind these associations is
presented. As a compliment to the art history approach, I have chosen to highlight our
associations with water from the perspectives of environmental psychology and evolutionary
science.
Älvkarleby, landskapskaraktär och gestaltningsförslag : landskapskaraktärsbeskrivning med inspiration av metoden Landscape Character Assessment, med riktlinjer och gestaltningsförslag
Älvkarleby, landscape character and design proposal is a Graduated Thesis (30
ECCcredtis), in the subject of landscape planning at the Swedish University of
Agricultural Sciences, the Department of Rural and Urban Development. This
thesis is a study and implement of the method "Landscape Character Assessment"
(LCA), developed in England and Scotland as tool to analyse and highlight the
landscape in different planning processes. The purpose of LCA is to increase the
understanding and strengthen the role of the landscape.
The thesis consists of three main parts: landscape characterization, guidelines
and a design proposal. The landscape characterization emphasizes the values
of the landscape in different types of planning processes, a documentation to
base estimations on in any kind of change in the area. Theese estimations have
resulted in guidelines that give proposals to the development of the landcape,
focusing at the desingproposal.

Ett svenskt landskap i Australien : svenska kyrkan i Melbourne
As a Swedish landscape architecture student living in Australia for five
years, I have often wondered if my memories and my associations
with the landscape and the nature in Sweden, are the same as other
Swedish people living in Melbourne.
Most of the Swedish people who live here in Melbourne remember
and associate Sweden?s nature and landscape with where they grew
up or where they used to live.
The plants that most of the Swedish people I asked missed from
Sweden were associated to special feelings or activities. The general
type of landscape people remember from Sweden is that of a
landscape covered in forests, which you can walk freely through.
With these memories as a foundation and with inspiration from the
Swedish landscape architect Thorbjörn Anderson?s way of creating
places, by letting a few strong changes play against the existing
elements,2 but also with consideration of the climate and the severe
shortage of water that is current in Melbourne, will I create a design
concept for the garden surrounding the Swedish Church in Melbourne.
A design concept that will generate memories and associations to
Swedish landscapes..
Föreställningar om naturfotografin En studie av naturfotografers syn på tendenser och förändringar inom naturfotografin
The purpose with this essay is to examine the role of landscape photography as a portrayer of nature. The study contains interviews with eight landscape photographers, to find out how they look at tendencies and changes in photography. The essay focuses on the discussion of authenticity and realism in landscape photography. Due to the requirement of nature as something natural and authentic, the landscape photography stands in a special position when it comes to matters of manipulation and influence. On the basis of certain analysis themes, the landscape photographers debate questions such as where landscape photography stands today, and how the future looks for the genre..
Landskapsarkitektens yrkesroll i Sverige och Spanien : en jämförelsestudie mellan svensk och spansk landskapsarkitektur med platsexempel från Stockholm och Barcelona
Landscape architect is a profession that withholds varying tasks inside countries and between countries. In many countries the landscape architect profession does not exist. Spain is a country where the landscape architect profession is not recognized, and the professions that work with landscape architecture are architects, engineers, biologists and agronomists. "Paisajista", in English "Landscaper," is in Spain a common name for those who design gardens and parks. Sweden is one of the countries with most landscape architects due to its population and the profession is well established.
