Emerging Arctic Landscapes

Emerging Arctic Landscapes is a master studio at Bergen Arkitektskole run during the autumn 2011 by Gisle Løkken, Magdalena Haggärde and Tone Berge.

The objective of the studio is to create a platform for critical discussions on the changes currently taking place in the Arctic region. These are changes in climate, ecologies, landscapes, economy, societies and cultures - changes that by all accounts can be expected to accelerate in the close future.

Starting with a trans-Arctic journey the studio will explore a cross section of remote arctic landscape under influence of intrusive development.

There are numbers of possible points of departure, and issues wished focused on. In this studio we want to investigate a broad span of examples of landscape occupations and arctic urbanizations - and study the forces of growth and decline that are working in the Arctic.
