As part of the ArkDes Fellowship 2020, three fellows were invited to carry out interdisciplinary research during a six-month period on the theme Our Living Environment<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The call attracted 75 applicants from a range of fields including research, practice, art, and communication. An international jury selected Katja Rosenlind, Andrea Luciani, and Camilla Schlyter, who each spent six months at ArkDes exploring current challenges and opportunities in our urban environments and developing new knowledge to support the designed living environments of the future.<\/p>\n

Camilla Schlyter is an architect with a strong interest in both craftsmanship traditions and innovation in timber construction. She explores digital tools and integrates them into her projects to understand how they can be applied in industrial production processes, with a particular focus on wood as a material and the role of the detail in architectural design.<\/p>\n

Her ArkDes Fellowship resulted in the report Timber Architecture and Its Role in a Sustainable Society<\/em>, in which she studied both modern and traditional timber construction techniques. By investigating the interplay between material, tools, and design, she sought new possibilities in the architectural process.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n
