 Feelings are complex.

You can feel happy, nervous and tired at the same time.

Probably feeling at home, or feeling home, is one of these

feelings made of several feelings.

FEELINGS

S. 20

 How does it feel to be at home?

Under which circumstances can one feel home?

Is feeling home just a sense of place?

Can we describe this feeling?

What are its causes?

Can we design this feeling?

FEELING (AT) HOME Can we design this feeling through a built habitat?

Can we design this feeling in a new collective housing

building in a new neighbourhood?

Does this concern architects?

 The program of this semester will be a group of several homes, where a bunch of people who want or have to
spend a long time at home have joined forces to nd an architect who will design a community responding to
their speci cities. The architect they chose is you.

Your project should accommodate the needs of the following citizens:

-A widowed retiree with no family or friends.
-A truck driver who has been paralysed from the waist down due to an accident.
-A refugee family that has recently arrived to Denmark (couple with two children of ve and 12 years old and a
grandmother).
-A young couple with one and three year old children who have decided to do homeschooling.
-An engineer who is a wind energy consultant and works from home.

You can choose if each of those live alone or with others, and their gender and place of birth. However, at least
one of the inhabitants is born and raised in Lisbjerg.

You should choose the occupations and/or characteristics of other ve inhabitants for whom you design the
houses, with the premise that each spends most of her or his days at home.

 However, there are guidelines that should be followed:

- Number of units: between 20 and 30

- You should follow the guidelines established at the Udviklingsplan for Lisbjerg
- The structure should be mainly built out of wood
- The empty space close to your building and within your site is also part of your proposal, including the public
space suggestes in the Udviklingsplan.

From these initial requirements, each student should develop her/his own speci c program that responds to her/
his approach to the assignment.

As an opportunity to further develop the knowledge on timber building systems, we encourage you to use wood
as the structural material.

 SF Special Focus
Third semester (Special Focus) students will work on a project which shares the area and theme of the rst and
second semester students assignment. However SF have slightly different guidelines, on top of the ones for 1 and
2 semesters:

- The project needs to include a common facilty for the neighbours (your own project and the whole Lisbjerg).

- You can choose a different site within Lisbjerg’s new development area, included in phase 1 of the
Udviklingsplan.

SF students will exercise critical and re ective writing within the thesis format. This includes the preparation of a
Summary Report.

 Process
The semester is divided in ve phases:

Phase 1: Contextual analysis. Understanding the place.

- One drawing that explains the main quality you have discovered while visiting the site.

Phase 2: Diagnose, strategies and exploration of architecture ideas

- Diagnose and critical revision of the commission and its requirements in light of the learnings of Phase 1.
- Study of relation with the surroundings (site, neighbourhood, town, region).
- Exploration and de nition of the fundamental architecture ideas, also but not exclusively related to the theme of
feeling at home.
- Development of strategies that will guide the project’s materialisation.
- De nition of the new neighbourhood’s inhabitants.
- Analysis of a case study of your own choice relevant to the assignment, through a 1:20 scale model of a room
within that case that explains the main idea contained in it.

Phase 3: Design development

- Analysis and development of program.
- Diagrammatic study of spatial organisation.
- Detailed de nition of between 5 to 10 living units and its immediate surroundings, which include half of the
inhabitants suggested in the assignment, and the other half of your choice.
- Model study of building volume/s and context.
- Process models and drawings.

Phase 4: Systems de nition

- Study and de nition of the building’s anatomy as a whole. Building systems.
PROCESS - Detailed study of the building’s physiology and how it is inhabited. Energy and uids.

Phase 5: Critical revision and communication

- Critical revision of the whole project in its various scales.
- Graphical and oral communication of the project.
