Architectural quality, design for circularity and design variation in wood façade systems


The doctoral research examines technical and architectural quality issues and assessment of aesthetics with focus on the connections between design, circularity, adaptability and reusability of the components by developing a digitized plat form. The aim is to investigate how knowledge and verification of these issues can be used in the development of future wooden building systems suitable for renovation and new construction with focus on the northern parts of Sweden. Funding for the project comes from Energimynigheten, E2B2. Partners in the project is: RISE, LTU, SCA, Hedlunda Industrier, Equator Arkitektkontor and Kiruna Bostäder AB.
