| description | This master thesis covers the design of a special garden room, The Hardscape Room, in The Rehabilitation Gardens at Alnarp, in southern Sweden, as well as describes the design process. The Rehabilitation Gardens are intended to serve several purposes. It will offer horticultural therapeutic treatment programs for people diagnosed as having had burnout disease for an extended period. Research is also aimed at studying the possible impact of different garden design hypotheses as well as different forms of horticultural therapy. In The Rehabilitation Gardens at Alnarp the most extreme and demanding garden room focused on cultivation and horticultural therapy is The Hardscape Room. This room represents an attempt to design a garden room in which the activities alone - gardening and horticultural therapy - are in focus. The Hardscape Room is primarily aimed at studying the therapeutic effects of horticulture therapy in a strictly designed and rational environment. The Hardscape Room is therefore intentionally designed to deviate from the rest of The Rehabilitation Gardens at Alnarp. The Hardscape Room is thus ment to fit patients at the end of their healing process. The aim is to document the design process, which also involves the researchers at Alnarp. By means of this method, I strive to create a stimulating outdoor environment for the participants. The work process includes a literature survey, interviews with technical personnel and scientists, as well as several visits to the Alnarp Rehabilitation Gardens. I have given the Hardscape Room a strict and consistent design. I have chosen a limited selection of construction materials (concrete and metal) with intentionally little variation in sober colours, in order to create a harmonious and peaceful working environment. The Hardscape Room is subdivided into three smaller areas: The Workshop, The Craft room and The Recreational area. The different characteristics of each area provide the means for different types of activities and rest. It is my sincere wish that the proposed Hardscape Room should offer possibilities and means for both staff and participants to fill this room with their own ideas and creativity. |

I den femåriga utbildningen till landskapsarkitekt ingår att på D-nivå utföra ett examens arbete om 20 poäng/30 hp/30 ECTS. Det här är mitt examensarbete och det handlar om att dels gestalta ett speciellt trädgårdsrum - The Hardscape Room - i Alnarps rehabiliteringsträdgårdar i Skåne, dels beskriva min design process. I Alnarps rehabiliterings träd gårdar bedrivs rehabilitering av personer med diagnosen utmattningssyndrom och trädgårdarna används som ett av verktygen i behandlingen. Här bedrivs också forskning om bland annat hur olika typer av trädgårdsdesign och träd gårdsaktiviteter påverkar människors välbefinnande. I The Hardscape Room vill man pröva odlingens möjligheter som terapiform i en strikt och rationell miljö och där vegetationen inte är en del av gestaltningen. Miljön i The Hardscape Room ska avvika från anläggningens övriga trädgårds rum och vara den psykiskt mest kräv ande miljön i anläggningen, tänkt att lämpa sig bäst för de del tagare som befinner sig i slutet av sin rehabilitering. Syftet med arbetet är dels att beskriva min designprocess som involverar personalen och några av forskarna vid Alnarps rehabiliterings trädgårdar, dels att med hjälp av denna design process skapa en utemiljö som lockar till aktivitet hos deltagarna vid Alnarps rehabilite rings trädgårdar. Tanken är att mitt gestaltningsförslag ska kunna ligga till grund för utformningen av The Hardscape Room. Jag grundar mitt arbete på litteratur studier, intervjuer och besök på platsen. The Hardscape Room har i mitt gestaltnings förslag fått en enkel och konsekvent utformning. För att skapa en sammanhållen och lugn miljö har rummet fått en strikt form med ett fåtal material och ett begränsat färg val. The Hardscape Room har delats upp i tre mindre rum: Arbetsrummet, Hobbyrummet och Vilorummet. Rummens olika funktioner ger förutsättningarna för olika aktiviteter som odling och hantverk men också för social samvaro, vila och sinnesstimulering. Med mitt gestaltningsförslag har jag velat skapa möjligheter till aktiviteter men också skapa utrymme för personalen och deltagarna att fylla rummet med egna idéer. 2007-10-15 Other NonPeerReviewed application/pdf sv https://stud.epsilon.slu.se/12509/1/gabrielsson_b_171026.pdf Gabrielsson, Barbro, 2007.
