In th is por to fo l io I t ry to depic t my contr ibut ion to these group-works as wel l as indiv idual ass ignments but not the f ina l resul t of the groupwork in i t ´s whole. Those f ina l resul ts have been col lected into books and compendiums which are avai lab le at the l ibrary at Bergen School of Archi tecture.
I l lus t ra t ions and photos are done by me wi th some exept ions in background images in “Blown Away By Gol ta” and the Afr ica chapter and the f ina l Huvo Mut i pro ject which I did in col laborat ion wi th Si l je Kalve Klepsv ik .

Cross course
T h e T h e a t r eIn the middle of the 2008- fa l l semester we got two weeks of cross course. I chose a course held by Fantast ic Norway archi tects Håkon and Er lend. There we worked wi th the theatre as a star t ing point , discuss ing boundar ies between theatre and real l i fe . We worked indiv idual ly wi th whatever mater ia l we chose and I chose to work wi th a conseptual scene in the center of Bergen.
theatre and real life
the scene changes constantly
bergen city: a stormy night the raindrops run down my cameralens reflecting the light and creating a lightscene
e p h e m e r a lthe light reflection gives a whole new spatial quality to an everyday situation

Fantast ic Studio
B l o w n A w a y b y G o l t aSpr ing 2009. A master-course wi th Fantast ic Norway Archi tects . Severa l smal ler pro jects leading up to the f ina l one where we worked closely wi th a cl ient . Fi rs t we bui l t our own of f ice wi th in the school . Then came up wi th what values our student-arch i tect of f ice Fantast ic Studio should uphold and come up wi th ideas to promote us. Next I made a f i lm together wi th two others and then a solo pro ject about a l i t t le “overn ight ” stop by the North Sea Trai l . In the end I worked on a pro ject cal led Blown Away by Gol ta together wi th two other fe l low students and we became the Gol ta Gir ls . We found our own cl ient far out on the Is land of Sotra and worked wi th him to real ize his ideas around a cer ta in si te . These ideas became a book and he chose our pro ject for fur ther developing which we have been work ing on.
Kontorets verdierVi er ett folkelig kontor som lærer å kjenne kundene sine godt og personlig. Vi bryr oss om de oppgavene vi får og følger de gjennom hele prosessen.
Vi setter oss godt inn i de plassene vi jobber på, lærer å kjenne beboerne og stedenes historie. Det er ett nødvendig grunnlag for å skape gode prosjekter.
Branding av kontoret.
Vi må komme oss inn på fleste hjem mulig der vi jobber og få lokalbefolkning til å delta i prosessen og komme med innspill. Alle i kommunen må vite hvem vi er.
Vi vil at folk har lyst å diskutere med oss samtidig som å delta i de prosjektene vi lager og diskusjoner runt de.
MålgruppeHusmødre/fedre som ikke nødvendigvis er så engasjert i arkitektur men som likvel har stor betydning for samfunnet og er en stor brukergruppe i lokale tilbud.
Målet er å vekke en tanke og diskusjon rundt middagsbordet og gi gode ideer og tanker til de som bor alene.
Med slagordet “du kan utgjøre en forskjell” prøver vi å engasjere folk til å delta mer i forandringer i samfunnet og med å satse på de som vanligvis ikke engasjerer seg innenfor arkitektur når vi samtidig til de som er aktive.
you can make a difference
Ikke syte lag en gryteFor å bli sett utgis en oppskriftebok med gryteretter samt informasjon og innslag om kontoret og arkitektur.
Den kan inneholde tomme sider for egen ideer samt lommer får å motta andres sine tanker og ideer om mat og arkitektur.
Boken er også ett virkemiddel for å starte en videre diskusjon, gerne med å lage retter fra boken og invitere til samtaler.
De bøkene kan også være forskjellige fra plass til plass hvor det samles lokale retter og historer.
Hvorfor en bok?En bok er ett utmerket virkemiddel for å formidle ett brand og for å gi logoen en sterk verdi.
På hvert oppslag er det en oppskrift og en liten godbit på den andre siden om kontoret eller om arkitektur.
Hva får kontoret ut av dette?
Vi blir en del av hjemmet og sprer kunnskap på en positiv måte. Samtidig sprer vi ett image om at det er enkelt å ta kontakt med oss og at vi bryr oss om deg og ditt innlegg som en kunde.

Irma’s plot
Caniso (straw):Is locally grown in the low wetlands.:Takes about 2 months to grow.:As a 5 cm exposed wall, properly laid, it lasts for about 5-6 years.:Very cheap building material.:Goes grey after being exposed to rain and sun.
Bamboo:Grows locally, but in small amounts.
Thatched roof:Keeps the building cool in summer and warm in winter. :A breathing roof with good insulating properties.:Makes use of materials that are naturally available - grass or reed.:Produced by natural processes that do not use scarce and expensive resources of energy.:Should have a minimum pitch of 45°. This gives the a steep pitch with good space underneath room. :Will normally last for about 25 years if properly laid.
Local materials
the new straw-houses are imitations of brick housesLocal ‘courtyard’- composition of plot
Agriculture + animals As the plot population grows, more area is needed for growing and keeping domesticated animals.
People + livingThe plot is at first divided in two main parts. One for agriculture and animals and the other for people and housing.
This makes it easier to keep the living-area clean and free of insects and vermin. Snakes and other animals often hide behind vegitation and bushes so keeping it seperate from the areas where people live is optimal.
Basic plot division
Toilets+bathroom+water managementAll grey and black water treatment is oriented towards the agricultural area. Rainwater is collected from roofs for drinking and hygenic purposes.
Workshops and educationA mixture of workshops and educational facilities create an education zone.
Bigger administration + new libraryThe administration is expanded with a book room/library for children and adults. Connected with the education, orphanage as well as the locals of Chimundo.
Orphanage + living unitsTo meet the increasing amount of orphan children in the area an orphanage is placed on the plot south of the administraion building.
Creatures of the plot
150 children
Workers
Old women
More nuns move to Chimundo
Age 0 - 6 = 40% > 60 childrenAge 7 - 12 = 40% > 60 childrenAge 13-15 = 20% > 30 childrenThe orphanage will house up to 150 children and can be built in different steps with the growing need.
With the growing activity on the plot, Sister Catarina will have more nuns to help out. They can stay close to the church, administration and the children.
Will have a special place on the plot. That place is near the mother tree and connected with kitchen activities.
The workers have their own housing where they can have their private “home away from home” or a break from working at the orphanage. Sleeping units for those who work shifts. Permanent housing as well as temporary.
Local Craftsmen
Local craftsmen work with the children in the work-shops every day after school hours. Those who travel from far away can stay at the temporary housing.
Animals
Animals have housing and bate on the left side of the plot with the agriculture.

The meeting place, huvo, was usually located under a tree and was enclosed with branches and tree stumps.
A typical Tsonga homestead unit was called a muti. This unit had a cylindricalshape with earth walls and a conical thatched or reed roof.
Huvo and MutiThe Tsonga people were living in the central and southern areas of Mozambique, between the Indian Ocean and the Lebombo Mountains, during the early 16th century. This area is today the Gaza region, named after The Gaza Kingdom. Chimundo is situated in this region.
A typical Tsonga homestead unit was called a muti. This unit had a cylindrical shape with earth walls and a conical thatched or reed roof.
The meeting place, huvo, was usually lo-cated under a tree and was enclosed with branches and tree stumps.
The harvesting of the crops was asocial and co-operative event. The whole community would get together to harvest the crops of each member of the community in turn. The host would provide food and drink and harvesting would become a fes-tive occasion.
