| description | The competition on Vatnsyri airport in Reykjavik was held by the city of Reykjavik
and announced in 2007. The competition
had three phases. My entry for the first phase is the starting point for my thesis in landscape architecture.
The proposal is based on a concept with a green structure replacing the existing
runways. These "green runways" will tie together the future development of Vatnsmyri with the existing surrounding parts of Reykjavik and connect the different
parts within Vatnsmyri. Contrary to the present situation in Reykjavik, cyclists and pedestrians will be prioritized. The structure will also improve the possibilities
for the cyclists and the pedestrians to travel across Vatnsmyri. The car-based traffic will be organized with a ring road. The concept can be divided into three types of movement. The ring road is one of these movements, while "the Green Runways" amount to the second. The third movement throughout the area is a straight waterway moving from north to south. This line provides the deep structure
in the otherwise flat landscape.
In addition to the competition proposal, the thesis contains a preliminary part that consists of an introduction with the competition programme and a description
of the starting point, a description of the method, analysis and inspirational objects. Finally there is a discussion with reflections on the process leading to the competition entry and the entry in itself. |

Konkurransen om Vatnsmyri flyplass i Reykjavik ble utlyst i 2007, arrangert av Reykjavik by. Mitt bidrag til konkurransens første av tre deler, er utgangspunktet for denne hovedoppgaven i landskapsarkitektur. Forslaget bygger på et konsept med en grøntstruktur som tar plassen til de nåværende rullebanene. Disse “Green Runways” skal knytte sammen det fremtidige, utbygde Vatnsmyri med den eksisterende Reykjavik og de ulike delene av Vatnsmyri. I motsetning til mye av dagens Reykjavik, skal syklister og fotgjengere få høy prioritet. Strukturen vil også bedre de myke trafikantenes mobilitet mellom de omkringliggende områdene rundt Vatnsmyri. Den bilbårne trafikken organiseres med en ringvei. Konseptet kan deles inn i tre bevegelser. Ringveien utgjør en av disse bevegelsene, mens “ the Green Runways” utgjør en annen. Den tredje bevegelsen i området utgjøres av en lineær vannvei fra nord til sør, som utgjør det flate terrengets dype struktur. Utover selve konkurranseforslaget inneholder hovedoppgaven også en innledende del som består av en introduksjon til oppaven med konkurranseprogrammet og mine utgangspunkt, beskrivelse av metode, analyser og inspirasjonsobjekter. Oppgaven avsluttes med en reflekterende del der prosess og resultat blir diskutert. 2008-05-23 Other NonPeerReviewed application/pdf sv https://stud.epsilon.slu.se/12911/1/vatnar_g_171120.pdf Vatnar, Gunnar, 2008.
