Abstract

This thesis concentrates on how to transform traditional, protected urban structures by loking at them in radical new ways . It does this by examining cemeteries in a part of Sweden and how they can become an integral, living part of the surrounding urban area by beter design and use of space .
Today , the competition for land betwen urban and rural areas is increasingly more intense. Cemeteries in Sweden have become non-religious, multi -cultural spaces that have the potential to play an important role in the future of strategic urban planing through their central locations and open spaces . This project explores the St Pauli cemeteries in Malmö, a city of growing density in southern Sweden and how these cemeteries could take on an extra identity to adres the changing neds of society and shortage of urban space .
The new identity for the St Pauli cemeteries in Malmö is depicted through thre urban scenes; the cemetery as a forest, the cemetery as a City and the cemetery as a thoroughfare . These are independent scenes which, when they come together form
a multifunctional perspective for the cemeteries which complements the surounding urban area. The thre scenes are derived from the interpretation of historical components and are related to the analysis of the designated plan area.
This thesis does not wish to limit itself by focusing on ofering a finalized design proposal as its outcome. It ses more benefit in concentrating on laying the foundations for a broader discusion into cemeteries and their spatial , social and dynamic
potentials in the urban context.

Den här uppsatsen behandlar hur traditionella skyddade urbana strukturer kan förändras genom att se på dem med nya
radikala perspektiv. Det här görs genom att undersöka kyrkogårdar i södra Sverige och hur de bli mer integrerade och levande
i staden och dess rum.
I dagsläget har konkurrensen om mark mellan urbana och icke urbana områden blivit allt intensivare. Kyrkogårdarna i
Sverige har blivit ett multikulturellt och sekulariserat rum som har potential att spela en viktig roll i framtida strategisk
stadsplanering genom deras centrala lägen och öppna ytor. Denna uppsats avhandlar St Pauli kyrkogårdar i Malmö och hur
dessa skulle kunna anta extra identiteter för att bemöta förändrade samhällsbehov brist på utrymme i staden.
St Pauli kyrkogårdars nya identitet inrymmes i tre sentenser; kyrkogården som skog, kyrkogården som stad, och kyrkogården
som stråk. Dessa är oberoende komponenter som vid interaktion formar ett multifunktionellt perspektiv för kyrkogårdarna
som kompletterar det omgivande urbana området. De tre senteserna är tolkningar av historiska komponenter och
relaterar till analysen av platsområdet.
Den här uppsatsen begränsar sig inte genom att föreslå en slutlig design som slutsats utan påvisar snarare en nyttighet i
att grunda en bredare diskussion vad gäller kyrkogårdar och deras spatiala, sociala och dynamiska utvecklingspotentialer
i urbana kontexter.
