Learning from collaboration - Building future practice

Researchers Svava Riesto andHenriette Steiner  (University of Copenhagen) will present their project Learning from Collaboration – Building Future Practice. The research explores the forms of collaboration that shaped Denmark’s remarkable building boom from 1960 to 1975—a period of technological innovation, social change, and holistic thinking in architecture and planning.

By examining how architects, landscape architects, engineers, and planners worked together across professional, social, and geographic boundaries, the project sheds light on both the successes and challenges of these collaborations. What made them possible? Where did conflicts arise? And what can we learn from these dynamics today?

The findings offer a richer understanding of the built environment and provide inspiration for contemporary efforts toward more diverse and sustainable practices in construction and urban development. This seminar is an opportunity to reflect on history while looking ahead to future collaborations.

The presentation will be followed by a discussion with the Öresund Comparative Borderland Research Group, and questions from participants. 

The presentation will be followed by a discussion with and questions from participants.
