Should new buildings blend in or contrast from the older buildings around?
Could contrasts even emphasize different characters? This report is a
discussion on that theme. I´ve studied different architects wiev on the
question and studied different of examples of where new buildings contrast to
the context in a successful way. In part two I´ve done a proposal on a new
housing settlement next to Hammarbyhöjden in Stockholm. The new buildings
contrast to the existing and the aim is to emphasize the characters in
Hammarbyhöjden as well as in the new structure. The new houses interpret the
apperance of the houses in Hammarbyhöjden in a modern way, and deliberatley
contrast to it. The result: I do think that different characters can reinforce
each other.
