  5. 5. BMA / BEURA : Evolving inhabitation through self-building and adaptive reuse

    University essay from KTH/Urbana och regionala studier

    Author : Karl Hedin; [2023]
    Keywords : Self-building; adaptive reuse; circular construction; Bromma airport; dynamic plotting; Självbyggeri; återbruk; cirkulär konstruktion; Bromma flygplats; dynamisk plottning;

    Abstract : My thesis, "BMA (Bromma airport) / BEURA (Bromma experimental urban recycling association), an adaptive rebirth", explores the potential for an evolution of self-built circular inhabitation on the airport runway of Bromma through adaptive reuse and circular construction. The Bromma Airport in Stockholm is set to cease operation by 2038, leaving behind a vast expanse of infrastructure that could be repurposed for other uses. READ MORE
