The Collective Enterprise - Master's Diploma project - is a multifaceted project regarding alternative learning and the empty buildings problematics in Oslo. The intention is to create a strategy for using vacant buildings as alternative learning platforms for students, founded on collaboration and interdisciplinarity. In practice, the project seeks to create a framework and a physical platform for students to generate, apply and use knowledge and other university capabilities outside academic environments.
"The study describes alternative learning arena’s that can be integrated into existing properties in Oslo.
A comprehensive list of properties which may be suitable for the concept is included. Innovative learning arenas and concepts are presented, followed by descriptions and sketches of spaces suitable for different types of collaborations such as: collaborative, creative, controlling and competing environments. The study concludes with four scenarios: urban kitchens, urban agriculture, bike workshop, learning arena with housing for the elderly, which are used for various spatial studies in selected properties.
