Doctoral student in Architecture: Adaptive Reuse and RepairSince its founding in 1827, KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm has grown to become one of Europe's leading technical and engineering universities.
Six doctoral positions are being advertised simultaneously within the School of Architecture and the Built Environment's focus on digitalization and sustainability.
Third-cycle subject: Architecture
Through artistic research, this PhD position addresses the need for new sustainable ways of reuse and repair in architecture. The aim is to develop sensitive methods that attend to material, cultural, and historical values in the built environment.
In response to current environmental and socio-political concerns, this project engages in a cross-disciplinary overlap of methods to make intertwined relationships and multi-layered aspects visible. Further, it examines how we imagine, understand, make, and maintain our built environment.
Supervision: Thordis Arrhenius, Ulrika Karlsson and Adam Wickberg are proposed to supervise the doctoral student.
