strategies for urban ecological sustainable development

We are planning to form a strategy for sustainable urban development with an ecological aspect, that can be applied on city parts, residentioal areas and regions. This will be put together in a small booklet that holds three parts. The first is the background, where we investigate existing plans, areas and also make an interview. The second part is our strategy. The third part is the application of the strategy on to a certain place. This will be presented with drawings, text etc.

Looking forward to it!

SpaceHunters interview

We have now sent mails to Novasol (a danish company that rents out cottages all over Europe) and LRF (The Federation of Swedish Farmers) with questions about countryside tourism. When their offices are in Gothenburg or Stockholm, we decided to do the interviews via mail. Now we are waiting for response and hopefully some good answers...

Report on O expansion

In today's Sydsvenska dagbladet [Skånes biggest newspaper] There is a debate article on page A5 written by Peter Möller from the Oresundskommittén. He names a project called Örib, Öresundsregionens infrastuktur- och byudvikling. [infrastructure and urban development in the O region]. The project's prognosis shows an increase in O population with 500 000 to 800 000 people until 2045. This could be an interesting scenario for one or more of the groups to work with. How to make room for all these people? And in a sustainable way?
