Slussen and its barriers

Public spaces under construction are often overlooked, seen merely as zones of transition. Yet, there’s an inherent beauty in these evolving landscapes. They embody the promise of transformation, a testament to our collective aspiration for progress and improvement. The rawness of these spaces, with their exposed and hidden structures, offers a unique aesthetic that is both authentic and captivating. They provide a glimpse into the intricate process of creation, making us appreciate the journey towards the final product.

I believe these spaces, despite their transitory nature, can be explored and utilised in their current state. Temporary installations, pop-up events, or urban interventions can activate these spaces, fostering community engagement and interaction. In my degree project, I aim to embrace the beauty of transformation and explore the potential of these spaces under construction.
