GK5
Studio Tranby is a joint foundation level course in urbanism for architecture-
and landscape architecture students. The topic of the studio this year was to
explore “centrality” as urban form in Tranby in Lier, 20 minutes south of Oslo.
The studio was developed in close collaboration with the municipality and
concluded in a report, a presentation and a digital exhibition for central
actors within the municipality.
A
main approach for GK5 is the combined focus on architecture and landscape formas a common denominator and point of departure for understanding and projecting
possible futures for an urban area like Tranby. Through cross-disciplinary
collaboration and specific case-studies, the aim is to understand the
complexity and diversity of contemporary urban settlements, identify concrete
design problems and provide realistic and informed design projects for selected
sites within Tranby and adjacent areas.
Through
the analysis of the preconditions and potentials for increasing and enhancing
the quality of Tranby as urban form, the student groups developed 20 different
proposals divided in four main categories: Arkadia, Parkveien, Campusand E18-byen. The proposals range from new urban designs for central
Tranby, spatial redevelopment of existing industrial sites and office areas, as
well as ventures into the lager territory of the Lier valley, Liertoppen
shopping center and adjacent areas.
