Project information

01

Design concept

Seen is not described through a single map, but through several overlapping readings. Interviews, historical development, population data, open spaces and traffic axes show how personal identity and spatial structure are linked.

02

Development

The semester project combines mapping, historical research, observation and statements from residents. This produces theses on green spaces, spatial separation, neighbourhood identity and the hard or soft boundaries between settlement and landscape.
