Out & About: Hage in Lund

An afternoon event which invites the public to visit Hage and discuss the future plans for the area. The event will be an open day for Hage, with locally sourced refreshments served. There will be an introduction to the project by the Cathedral and a number of performances which are to be confirmed.

Hage in Lund

Hage is a high quality public space that should both work as a short term space for public discussion, events and workshops, while also, in a long-term perspective, offer a meditative, beautiful urban space and garden at the heart of a new neighbourhood. Open to everyone, it is a response to the question of how to build a new community: start with social space.
The medieval city of Lund, located in the south of Sweden, is surrounded by some of the most fertile farmland in the country. Following the establishment of a new science park, a large urban development is now taking place on the outskirts of the city. The Lund Cathedral is a large landowner within the new urban development.
A strong 40 by 40 metre enclosure from reused bricks in the peri-urban landscape will now transform the fallow fields into a new urbanity. People and local groups are invited to inhabit the space, and to gradually develop and realise ideas for its future character and use.
