Studio B3. Autumn 2010/Spring 2011
Studio B3 ends its “Architecture as Infrastructure” discussion in the ongoing spring semester 2010. The material produced within the theme will be published as a sequel to the B3 Generator book.
Studio B3 will in the forthcoming semesters continue with its search towards an architectural awareness that seeks to establish sustainable relationships between Nature and Culture and where the experience, discoveries and inventive thinking from the Generator- and Infrastructure courses actively will be used and/or further developed.
The new relationship between nature and culture that Studio B3 in the next courses further investigates in, is utilized through the further understanding, development and discovery of architectures elementary properties and architectural space.
In order to approach this new correlation, the courses will at the start of the semester seek to dig deeper into the social/cultural changes and challenges that mark our time and discuss how these changes in different ways have influenced our relationship to the architectural space and how we use it.
Sets of living and the borderline between private and public as well as local and global will be debated in order to create a content in which the individual again compiles a consciousness towards architecture and hence also a clear attitude towards nature.
Title: The Discovery of a new Territory. In search for Place.
The new territory defines itself independent of earlier territorial borders or established definitions.
The new territory is understood as a place that states a clear relationship between content and context, and by so doing offers a deeper connection between nature and culture.
The territory as a whole can be regarded as a Spatial Infrastructure.
To find the architectural potential within the territory, an energy that is to be discovered and defined by you, will be the first challenge in the course before developing this potential into an architecture that inside the territory offers your desired relationship between nature and culture.
Themes: Local, Global, Contained in, To connect, To participate.
Territory investigation: Oslo, to be discussed.

At the end of the course, students will have increased their knowledge and skills within
- Advanced, experimental architectural design.
- Process preparation / adaptation.
- Development of own working method.
- Architectonic programming / development of a precise visual, written and verbal argumentation towards an architecture.
Intro design task; territories.
Individual design process / investigating the territories’ spatial properties and capacity.
Phase 1; introduction to the task – lectures and discussion.
Phase 2; to analyze a territory – models.
Phase 3; the discussion of place - text production.
Phase 4; further development of the project – drawings/models.
Phase 5; contextualization.
2D and 3D, photo/film, tool shop, testing hall.
Reviews: 2 common, 2 individual.
Study trip: USA
The course is assessed on the basis of participation, study-progression and three intermediate reviews. The final project is examined by an external critic. The work is to be used for publications.
The course is assessed as Pass/Fail,
subject to the Regulations for Master's degree programs at AHO, § 6-14.
