Design & Planning for Social Inclusion

19 September 2022 – 13 January 2023

 

Welcome to the design studio Design & Planning for Social Inclusion within the master’s programme Architecture and Planning Beyond Sustainability. The design studio starts on Monday 19 September 2022 and ends on Friday 13 January 2023.

Introduction

The studio focuses on the so-called Million Homes Programme, a corner stone in the development of the Swedish welfare society. About one million modern homes were built from the mid-1960s to the mid-1970s, mainly in new settlements in the outskirts of towns and cities. In Sweden, the term förort (‘suburb’) commonly refers to such areas (rather than to those kinds of suburbia characterized by sprawl) and is usually connected to a negative imagery and socioeconomic problems and decay. Here, social segregation and marginalisation are a direct result of how policies regarding distribution of housing were applied in the last 40 years. Newcomers and refugees from countries in crisis were often given housing in these areas already distanced from the rest of the city, both geographically and (infra)structurally – these have been suitable areas for these groups due to the lower rental prices practiced by local housing companies in these areas. This has consequently created local communities with very low purchasing power and limited economic capital growth. In turn, and besides the obvious inequalities in access to resources, this situation resulted in a low interest for investments and maintenance from the main stakeholders in power. This kind of marginalised, large-scale, peripheral housing areas is the focus of discussions about segregation and social conflicts all over the industrialised world, and often pointed out as one of the most urgent challenges in our cities today, with a direct impact on the sustainable development of the local built environment. At the same time, there is a political and administrative debate going on in Sweden about the need for giant investments in upgrading these areas after more than four decades of insufficient maintenance, to comply with the new demands and regulations for sustainable living standards.

In the light of these challenges, especially since there are many indications of continuously increasing socio-spatial gaps and escalating social exclusion in Sweden, we need to put more emphasis on citizen participation and bottom-up perspectives in local planning and development of the built environment. In Gothenburg as in many other cities, new policies urge for dialogues with inhabitants, social impact assessments and co-creative processes. New methods and tools are constantly being developed for this and there is a growing demand of architecture, urban design and planning professionals that can carry out the tasks at hand and integrate them in their architectural design processes and practices. This studio has a focus on design and planning for social inclusion in the context of the Million Homes Programme.

Description of the studio

Through a series of exercises, lectures, seminars, workshops and an extensive architectural design project, this design studio elaborates with the challenges for built environment professionals (architects, designers, planners, engineers, human geographers, antiquarians, etc.) to contribute to sustainable development in Million Homes Programme areas, linking social and cultural aspects to e.g. environmental, technical, aesthetic, economic aspects.

The exercises include the use of different methods to analyse and map a wide variety of stakeholders involved, the studied area, its places, life and functions. These exercises are developed in close collaboration with people living or working in the respective project contexts. There is a specific focus on introducing and practicing different methods for citizen participation in co-creation processes, as an important dimension of working for social inclusion.

The rich programme with lectures, seminars and workshops involve practitioners and researchers with expertise in the studio’s key themes and methods, many of them with local connection but eventually also some international guests.

The main task is the project work, which is carried out in small groups. The studio’s projects are initiated in collaboration with several local stakeholders to connect to ongoing needs, real projects and urban development processes and give the students the possibility to develop skills for their future professions in an integrated way into their architectural projects and with a local and sustainable participatory impact.

The location-basis of the studio’s facilities is in Hammarkullen, providing a unique possibility for the students to get a very close relation to one area representing the studio’s context.

More details regarding the location and facilities for the studio can be found further below under the section Studio Location. Any eventual constrains in the use of the facilities in relation to the covid-19 pandemic will be communicated in due time.

Aim

The studio will give knowledge and practice about how to work with challenges and opportunities for sustainable architectural and urban development of suburban areas built in the 1960s and 70s as part of the Swedish Million Homes Programme. Social aspects of sustainable architectural and urban design and citizen participation are specific focus areas. The students should express the learning outcomes in the studio mainly through their design projects and individual reflections.

Main Learning Outcome

Since the studio engages with the local suburban context in Gothenburg and its relevant stakeholders, its way of working reflects what happens in the architectural practice, where the complex problems of the built environment need to be tackled through dialogue and negotiations with local actors. At the end of this studio the students will be prepared to work as professional architects, planners, designers, engineers, human geographers, antiquarians, etcetera, in architectural design, planning and reconstruction of suburban areas from the Million Homes Programme – linking social aspects to e.g. environmental, technical, aesthetic, economic aspects of sustainable development.

Studio Location for 2022

The course’s main location is in the study area of Hammarkullen, in the studio’s facilities (the former Centre for Urban Studies).

The first part of the design studio would consist of intense weeks with many lectures and interaction with citizens, organisations and local employees, often out in the field. In the project work phase, some of the groups that work in other areas outside of Angered may possibly be provided with borrowed working spaces close to their respective project areas, to organize project related events such as participatory workshops. The last weeks are usually also intensive, with exhibition and public presentations in Hammarkullen, and a co-evaluation of the design projects with invited stakeholders.

In order to provide the students with a working place, we have full access to the studio’s facilities in Hammarkullen, which are very well equipped for supporting the type of dynamic group work that the pedagogy of this studio entails. Don’t hesitate to contact the course teachers in the case you have any questions regarding the facilities.

Address for the facilities in Hammarkullen:
The address is Hammarkulletorget 62B (the entrance is in front of you when you exit the tram station, and it’s between the Folkets Hus and the library). For the first day you will have to ring the bell and/or call one of the teachers (numbers available on the top of in this syllabus) in order to enter the building. Then take the elevator (or the stairs) up to the 7^th floor - the elevator access should be activated once you got the building door opened for you. You can get to Hammarkullen with tram 4, 8 or 9 from the city centre and towards Angered, then get off at the station “Hammarkullen".

Continuous access to the facilities:
After the first day you will receive a key-tag that gives you access to the building, activates the elevator to the floor 7 and let's you enter our floor. For entering on floor 7 you will have to use the key-tag and after that press the code 8101+OK. At the end of the studio it is very important that you return your key-tags to the teachers as we have a limited number of them and need to use them with future students.

Start

Please note with special attention that the course will start on Monday 19^th of September at 8.30 in Hammarkullen. The details for this and all other sessions in the studio are provided in the studio calendar on Canvas.

Course Structure

Social Inclusion 2022 - general structure_220916.pdf

This is a full-time study course. The workload according to Chalmers policy and agreement between the Architecture programmes and the Student Union is of 40 hours a week of scheduled activities + 5 hours a week of homework activities. The course consists of lectures, seminars, workshops, study visits, exercises, literature studies, project work of an architectural or urban design project, presentation and critique. This is a preliminary brief overview of the curriculum, which includes:

• Impressions regarding the context
• Introduction to theory and key concepts within socially sustainable architecture and planning
• Observations, analysis and understandings of the context and the key stakeholders
• Reflections and collaborative engagement in subjects
• Focus and delimitation of project work
• Dialogue and participation in action
• Experiment, improvise, co-create (co-initiate, co-analyse, co-design, co-implement, co-evaluate)
• Project work in smaller groups (including collaborative-learning and group dynamics)
• Joint interactive exhibition, presentations, evaluation
• Critical reflection, feedback

The course is divided into three parts following the course’s motto “TUNE IN + IMPROVISE + PERFORM” and organising the course modules to be based on the 5 stages of co-creation processes, and the individual critical reflection.

The first four weeks is the TUNE IN part, composed by the co-initiation and the co-analysis modules:

• Co-initiation (2 weeks): here you will learn about Hammarkullen and the North-eastern and Eastern districts of Gothenburg – the main local settings for the master studio – and the people living and working there. During this period, you will gradually develop knowledge and understanding of the course’s (theoretical and conceptual) subjects that you will approach and work with during the long project work. On the second week, after a co-initiation workshop together with invited guests representing local stakeholders, you will start to work with your projects in smaller groups (3-5 students). On this week you will define the group’s direction and main goals through a group dynamics workshop and address the project’s structure through the mapping and analysis of stakeholders.
• Co-analysis (2 weeks): in the first week you will engage with the Ukudoba-method of co-analysis through a workshop for collaborative collection and mapping (with specific digital tools) of quantitative and qualitative data related to the project. In the second week you will use audio-visual methodologies and tools to create a narrative concerning the background and context of your project. These audio-visual narratives, usually take part of an installation at a local cultural event, the Hammarkullen Culture Walk. This year due to the cancellation of the Culture Walk, another type of installation will be co-planned with the students.

The next period is the IMPROVISE part, composed by the co-design module:

• Co-design (6 weeks): this module has a strong focus on the moderation of dialogue processes, the collaboration with the closest stakeholders, users, and other directly interested actors for each specific project and respective problem formulation. Such processes are rarely linear and skills such as re-planning, adaptation and improvisation in combination with your creative approach to all types of encounters will help you to define the purpose, formulations, guidelines and proposal of your design project.
  • Methods: You will receive the support of 3 practical workshops focusing on methods of co-design that you must use in your processes (how to run online participatory workshops, how to develop games for co-design, how to use hand-built models in dialogue processes).
  • Progress: The progress of the co-design will be followed by constant supervision and a series of sequential moments and achievements: the project plan (defining the project goals); 3 project target goals (minimums: target goal 1: structured contact with stakeholders; target goal 2: a first co-design workshop has been run; target goal 3: a second co-design workshop has been run).

The final part of the studio is the PERFORM part. In this period of around 5 weeks, you will work with the modules of co-implementation, reflection and co-evaluation.

• Co-implementation (3 weeks): this module starts with the 80% seminar. After that, you will finalize the design process and synthetize the project work. A selection of material from the project shall be composed into a clear narrative and an interactive digital exhibition (also to be performed as a printed/physical exhibition at Chalmers). This exhibition, in the style of a common co-design workshop, will be shared with your colleagues, the public, local citizens and most importantly all of the stakeholders involved in the studio, in order to collect their input and feedback. The point is that this input shall be used into the finalization of the project work until the end of the studio.
• Reflection (self-study days during Christmas break): one of the most important assignments of this studio is the individual critical reflection. Even though the hand-in of this assignment is only at the end of the studio, the contents and experiences to reflect about should be collected throughout the whole semester. The assignment is composed of written and graphical components that should be summarized when the studio is reaching to its end. This is a moment for introspection and critical reflection about the learning experience throughout the studio, with an implicit connection to the subject of collaborative learning. In the last day of the studio there will be a whole group seminar to discuss the most important topics brought up in the reflections.
• Co-evaluation (last week): in this studio, we want to have the stakeholders’ feedback, but we also want to give something back to the community. A collaborative evaluation of your projects will take place, with start in the last days before Christmas break and continues in the last week, in January, and with the involvement of the main experts, the mainrespective  stakeholders for each project. Here, the projects will be discussed with the respective stakeholders, in order for you to receive feedback on the entire process, outcome and collaboration. This event includes a formal hand-over of a project package for the stakeholders to continue with the work on the respective projects.

Examination

Grading: TH - Fail, 3, 4 or 5

As a minimum, to pass the course and receive a grade, you need:

• Presence at all scheduled activities (both virtual and physical ones) is required. Some absence can be accepted if there are legitimate reasons (e.g. temporary sickness). In other cases, supplementary assignments have to be handed in in order to compensate for absence (e.g. written reviews on literature). Non-compensated absence will negatively influence the grades;
• Active participation at seminars, workshops and in group work;
• Course participation and exercises of sufficient quality (i.e. that fulfils the course objectives and presentation requirements);
• Delayed submission of hand-ins without any approved motivation will negatively influence the grades;
• Electronic course evaluations should be filled in.

Criteria for grading (3, 4 or 5) of the different parts in the course is found in the Assessment and Grading table available in the course folder on Canvas here:

02_Social Inclusion 2022 - Assessment & Grading.pdf

The balance of the examination throughout a grading scale across the different assignments and in relation to the different learning outcomes is found in the document Evaluation Matrix, available on Canvas here:

03_Social Inclusion 2022 - Evaluation matrix.pdf

Expected deliveries are:

1. All project group assignments should be collected in a project logbook following and compiling the different stages of the project in relation to the different modules of the co-creation process:
   • Co-initiation: project definition sheets and mapping and analysis of project stakeholders;
   • Co-analysis: digital presentation of collected data in the collaborative analysis of the project context, and audio-visual narrative piece for installation (at the local Culture Walk event) and respective documentation;
   • Co-design: at 5 moments (projects targets 1, 2, 3, and 80% seminar) and in different formats, present a selection of core project material that progressively shows: background, purpose, methods, the project process and methodology, a collaboratively designed proposal, spatially contextualized key results within different conceptual parameters and main discussion points;
   • Co-implementation: interactive exhibition of the studio project, using different types of graphics (illustrations, drawings, diagrams, etc.) and various media, presenting the studio’s project and communicating the work process and spatially contextualized results to different sorts of audiences;
   • Co-evaluation: detachable A5 participatory pamphlet resuming and presenting the main methods and participatory process of the project; summary of co-evaluation workshop and hand-over documents, next steps project sheets and collaborative studio poster.
2. Individual assignments comprising of:
   • Literature review and contribution to literature seminar;
   • Individual critical reflection on the learning experience in relation to the studio’s themes (eg. the understanding of the context, the professional role in the local context, experience of collaborative learning, challenges of group work), and personal thoughts about the student’s pedagogical process and future professional perspective.
3. Other group assignments:
   • Digital material results from the 2 group dynamics workshops.

(the project logbooks from the previous year will be available for consultation at the studio’s small library in the Hammarkullen working spaces and a selection of previous digital logbooks will be made available as a reference)

Changes from last year

The course has been changed to match the students’ feedback through the course evaluation survey, the available teaching resources, the current off-status of the restrictions and recommendations from Chalmers regarding the covid-19 pandemic to avoid the spread of the virus. The main changes for this year include:

• The first week is significantly less loaded (less lectures and compulsory moments), giving more time for literature reading (this is being improved even more);
• The focus on critical practical application of gender equality and norm-critique in design processes is expected to be embedded in the overall project processes as it complies with the course's learning outcomes and thematic focus;
• The workshop on Stakeholders is being simplified;
• An extra (shorter) workshop connecting project sketching to the stakeholders mapping is introduced at the start of the co-design period;
• The studio participates every year in a local event in Hammarkullen called Culture Walk. This year the event has been reactivated by the organisers after a year of a break due to the covid-19 pandemic. Therefore the studio will participate in this event again through the work from the Audio-Visual Narratives;
• Tutorials are structured around a dedicated tutor per project and sessions should be scheduled directly with the respective tutors on Fridays. Tutorial sessions are in this way happening more often and longer sessions;
• The midterm session has been taken away in order to create better fluidity in the project development (after students feedback);
• The exhibition is being tailored and curated through a workshop, to establish clear parameters, framework and delimitations;
• The digital exhibition will be produced in a format and size to be able to be reproduced into a physical format at Chalmers in the next day;
• The co-evaluation workshop was split into 2 parts, one preparatory before Christmas break and the second in January, after the next-steps workshop. This guarantees and more integrated pedagogical process;
• All teaching is planned to be in person except for very few excerptions, as there are no further instructions or recommendations from Chalmers regarding distance teaching solutions to address the the current pandemic.
