// Anchoring: when architecture is fixed into a place in space and time, a more profound connection can be evoke trough memory and through the architectural inscription of historical traces on site
This project is about an analytical and propositional research to investigate the possibility for an new urban plan of Kristiansholm.
As a student and critic to the neighbour site, we see the chance to explore the idea of history, densification and living typologies in Bergen and breaking the barriers, which are creating detached and divided areas.
The proposal shows an holistic approach to living typologies and a greater connection from the peninsula ,Kristiansholm, to Sandviken, which is to often that the planners stay within their boundaries. But with the research of this project, we will explore an idea of “thickness” of these boundaries that define the area, whether it is by revealing new and historical lines, creating open areas that visually connect the waterfront to the hillside, porous buildings that enable new movement or a new area of densification that is seen as support to the regeneration of Sandviken as one of the “centers” in Bergen.
