In the suburb of Gullmarsplan, Stockholm, multiple bridge sections and a highway flow through, creating a barrier for social and ecological connections. Insufficient connections between various areas leads to holes in the urban fabric with lower accessibility, neglect and a feeling of unsafety. The main goal of the project is to patch together these holes in the urban fabric by implementing activating strategies for social- and environmental growth. 

The area is studied and analyzed, by different methods such as research, site visits and interviews. The conclusions derived from the analytical phase have then been used to make design decisions, enhancing the area and connecting it more to the adjacent spaces. This creates an activated area that will contribute to easier orientation, better accessibility, a cleaner space and a greater feeling of safety. In turn this would increase the flow of people, transforming the space into a lively part of the city that works as an activating bridge over the barriers that disconnect the area.
