This year, undergraduate students from theAarhus School of Architecture [check out

previously featured student works from Aarhus] will be collaborating with Northern Europes

largest cultural and music festival, the Roskilde. 125 students were involved in this two-

month long project which ultimately resulted in a experimentation of light, materiality and

space. Entitled Vintergatan [Swedish for Milky Way], the installation is a modular exercise

as different sized triangles are combined to create varied spaces. The name refers to the

installations main motif: a ribbon of light that surrounds the square in front of the Pavilions

stage, where a series of upcoming bands will perform during the fest ival.

More images and more about the project after the break.

Designed around the Cradle to Cradle principles, the installation is constructed using

environmentally friendly and recyclable materials. After the festival, the modules can be

separated and reused in another urban context. The installation features three different

structures and will serve as a place for concert goers to rest and relax, in addition to

serving as a landmark within the festivals arena.

For their Nature Box piece, three large cubes can be unfolded to create a series of dynamic

spaces where one can eat, rest, sit, celebrate and observe. Space and seating situations

change depending on how the cube is unfolded. The other structures will offer a dynamic

geometric aesthetic in the morning, and an interesting light installation after nightfall. It has

been a great challenge for us as students to get interesting effects out of the very common

and familiar materials. Most can have good ideas, but the challenge is to realize them

especially with such a tight budget, explained Anja Nrgaard.

Conceptually, the installation acts as a platform for up and coming musicians and is

regarded as a base for creative growth. In addition, the structure acts as a social magnet

for festival-goers. There was a desire that the instal lation provide for meetings between

people in both larger and smaller communities. We would like to install stimulate

community formation and invite them to different ways of being together than those seen in

traditional street furniture. The installation thus becomes a social experiment where we test

whether some of the ideas we make about human social behavior, hold true, explained the

students.

One of the intentions of Roskilde collaboration has been to bridge the gap between theory

and practice by letting education be based entirely reality-based problems and give

students some practical experience to realize their projects, explained Boris Brorman

Jensen, Associate Professor Aarhus School of Architecture.

The students will build the installation before the festival begins on the 26th on June.
