In my degree project, I am inspired by memories, local places, and identity to activate historical objects and use history as local DNA in furniture design. The degree project’s continuous narrative examines and tells my grandfather’s story from a nostalgic and critical point of view related to the subject of craft and design. The vision… Continue reading Lovisa Norrby

My degree project is about spatial transitions. By highlighting methods showing how new spaces respond to existing architecture from other times, I hope we can better preserve existing buildings and develop new spaces with a greater connection to their site, time, history, and context.

Through practice-based exploration, my degree project explores and develops methods for how music can be used as a design tool. By analyzing perception of music, which components that are present and how the music is structured, rules can be created for the interior architect to relate to. Not as limitations, but as an interface that… Continue reading Hanna Lidgren

During the last few years, a boom of shutdowns against nightlife venues has significantly impacted Stockholm’s nightlife scene, making it simple and monotonous. Transparent Terrain, a burlesque show and nightclub in Nitrolackfabriken at Lövholmen, exists to bring back the city’s essential nightlife that promotes playfulness, well-being, and tourism. Burlesque plays a critical and feminist role… Continue reading Frida Littorin
