Studio - Water environments and landscape architecture

Information from the course leader

Hi & welcome to the course!

The course will have a clear focus on climate-adapted and nature-based stormwater planning and design in an urban context, following the urban water cycle from green roofs, rainbeds, constructed wetlands etc all the way to the natural water habitats. The course team will consist of Maria Wisselgren, Sofia Eskilsdotter, Emma Butler and Anna Robling. To our help we have different experts that you will meet throughout the course.

Our "home Studio" will be ritsal 3b, Ulls hus, Campus Ultuna. If you need you can always ask our Service center about the locations: https://www.slu.se/en/about-slu/locations/

Our project area will be in Bäcklösa, very close to SLU Campus. You will be working on a solution for rainwater in nearby new residentials and hard surfaces coming along with the new functions.

Our course forum will be on Canvas. As soon as you are registrered to the course, you will have access. We will communicate further there.

The first book is added under the literature list-tab here on the course page. The rest of the reading will come shortly. A lot of literature will be available for free online via the SLU-library, or as a pdf on Canvas.

The extracted pages from "Water centric..." will be available later in a pdf on Canvas.

If you already know that you will pursue something other than this course, please decline your place. This means that students who are waiting in line can be informed earlier.

Looking forward to meet you on Monday 2nd. We will start in Sal 01, U-huset, Undervisningshuset. If you need more info about our locations please get in touch with our Service center in Ulls hus: https://www.slu.se/servicecenter.
