Nordic Encounters: Travelling Ideas of Open Space Design and Planning
The issue goes beyond Denmark and the Nordic countries. It
concerns what it means to intervene in cities and landscapes
in a global era. What happens when western designers work
in places whose local languages are new to them? How do
general ideas about improving cities migrate and mutate,
synergize and conflict in the encounter with specific contexts
and their traditions, narratives and politics? What are the
potentials and losses of producing traditions – such as the
Danish or Nordic – in open space design and planning?
Thus, this conference invites contributors from landscape
architecture, urban design, heritage- and urban studies,
geography, anthropology, ethnology, art history and more to
discuss how design and planning mindsets travel.
