Related works
2000–2004 — developing new applications and tecniques for transference of two-dimensional images via engravings to concrete surfaces. Some of the methods used for Stadshagen Subwaystation and other for the present project for Gothenburg city. The tecniques are the results of combinations of digital, graphic methods, elaborate casting and chemical laborations. Long time collaboration with senior Architect Tage Hertzell, creator of “Garnisonen” at Karlavägen in Stockholm, very well known for his writing about aestethic use of concrete in architecture. The collaboration has resulted in new methods for aestethic use for architectural industrial pre-cast design. Cooperating also at seminars for architects, students, building and concrete industry.
