Study Tour Objectives
The study tours of the Architecture and Design Program at DIS
form an integral part of the learning process. We go to places to
learn through experience and through analysis. We go to places
to understand and ultimately, to become better architects and
designers.
In the semester programs and in the summer sessions, we aim to
prepare students for their study tour by carrying out a cross-
disciplinary group assignment prior to departure. This assignment
deals with an academic analysis (research/study) and a physical
analysis (making of a model).
The academic analysis takes its cue from a model of
interpretation, developed by Danish architectural scholar, Erik
Nygaard. It describes four ways into the work of architecture, one
based on the conception, one based on the form and a formal
study, one based on the reception of the work, and finally one
based on the broader socio-economic determinants surrounding
the former three. The students get introduced to the model in a
lecture before the assignment commences.
The second part, the making of physical models, is a classic
architectural and design based way of understanding works
of architecture and design. It gives students direct and three-
dimensional insight into the formal aspects of the work, allowing
them to understand materiality, light, massing, scale, etc.
Furthermore, the use of the sketchbook/journal – the very
classical way in which architects throughout centuries have kept
track of their experiences and learning – is something we aim to
maintain an understanding of among the students. We have the
so-called journal courses, which gives students access to ways
in which to sketch, note down, and annotate experiences and
learning drawn from the study of buildings and places. And we
have introductions to journal taking for those students that chose
not to enroll in an actual journal course. As such all AD students

7
Study Tour Objectives
get exposed, in one way or another, to the very important
element of visual note taking.
On the study tours we have built in sessions, where students and
tour leaders look at the developing sketchbooks, to both share
and learn from each other.
The IEC study tour is intended to give a small taste of all of this.
We will focus on the journal and sketching elements, and provide
the participants with an introduction to journal taking as well as
encouraging participants to maintain a journal on the tour. The
tour ends with a journal sharing and wrap up session – elements
that always form part of the final part of any AD study tour.
The Grand Tour was the study tour of the 18th and 19th centuries.
Artist visited important cities and sites in Europe to study, learn,
and socialize. Here it is a classic Danish painting, by Constantin
Hansen, of Danish artists gathered in Rome in 1837. Most are
painters, but the man wearing the red fez is architect Gottlieb
Bindesbøll, who among other buildings made the Thorvaldsen
Museum in central Copenhagen. The Painting hangs in Statens
Museum for Kunst in Copenhagen.

The Trelleborg in Slagelse is one of 6 Viking ring fortifications in
Denmark and Southern Sweden. The site was excavated from
1934 to 1942, and older datings put the fortifications near the
year 1000. The Trelleborg was designed as an exact circle with
two roads that crossed at right angles in the center and led to
the four gates. Each of the four quarters housed almost identical
longhouses arranged in a square. The fortress accommodated
1,300 people.

Just as notable as the collections of modern art and furniture
within, is the building that houses them. The wall acts as a datum
from which the spaces unfold. The landscape is read though the
wall and the attached corridor, leading the spectator from the
narrow entrance to the cafe opening onto the view and the fjord.
Sketch focus: integration of building with landscape and terrain,
building and site sections, strategies for day lighting interior
space, modularity in building elements.

Functioning as a fortress over 700 years ago, Jutland’s last royal
castle has since been a royal residence, a government seat, an
iconic ruin (after a fire in 1808), and now an historic museum and
exhibition space. Of particular note is the exposure of cultural
layers including the contemporary, and sometimes symbolic,
reference to parts of the building as it was.
Sketch focus: adaptation of historical fabric, style and technique in
contemporary and medieval material detailing.

8 the church today
This church as an example of a traditional Danish church, and
was built of travertine in 12th century. Three wooden churches
were on the site originally, the first of which was built by Harold
Bluetooth when he erected the second Jelling Stone and buried
his father, King Gorm, under the church floor. After a series of
fires, demolitions and additions, the church stands as it is today.
Sketch focus: find and note the location of larger, older brick;
in section, depict the proportion of the spaces.

19
Jelling Burial Mounds
The Jelling burial mounds and one of the runic stones are striking
examples of pagan Nordic culture, while the other runic stone
and the church illustrate the Christianization of the Danish people
towards the middle of the 10th century.
Located in central Jutland, Jelling was a royal monument during
the reigns of Gorm, and his son Harald Bluetooth, in the 10th
century, and may possibly pre-date this era. The complex consists
of two flat-topped mounds, 70 metres in diameter and up to 11
metres high, which are almost identical in shape and size and
construction, being built of turf, carefully stacked in even layers,
with the grass side facing downwards.

Arne Jacobsen, Erik Møller
1937-42
The Aarhus Rådhus is one of the most important pieces of
modernist architecture in Scandinavia. The original furniture
was designed by Hans Jørgen Wegner. The original design did not
include the now iconic tower: Jacobsen reluctantly worked this
into the coherent functionalistic composition.
Sketch focus: modularity and adaptability of interior spaces,
movement of people in section, day lighting strategies, materiality
and architectural detailing, function within the urban fabric.

The largest art museum in the Nordic countries, this museum’s
form was inspired by Dante’s Inferno, with hell in the basement
swirling through the building to heaven on the roof. The building
takes up a regular city block and incorporates a central ‘street.’
The design accommodates people’s need for natural light while
keeping pieces of art from its harmful effects.
Sketch focus: in diagrammatic section, depict interior-exterior and
private-public space, approaches to daylight and artificial light.

Århus Å
Aarhus
Aarhus City Architect, Ole Østergaard
1994
Aarhus creek was the waterway that led to the location of the
city of Aarhus in 900 AD. During the Industrial Revolution, the
creek became an infrastructural obstruction and in 1930 it was
piped and a road took its place. In the 1990s, the need for urban
recreation spaces led to the reopening of the creek.
Sketch focus: site section of the creek as an urban feature, social
space, include the relationship of bridges, steps, and water.

Møntergården 1(2)
Møntestræde 1,
Architects (2013) : Frank Maali og Gemma Lalanda
The old Møntergård building is one of the finest Renaissance properties
in the city of Odense. It was built in 1646 by the nobleman Falk Gøye. The
building itself is a two-storey half-timbered house with carved rosettes
facing Overgade and Møntestræde. The walls are brickpainted as bricks
were considered superior to halftimbering. The roof is covered with
handmade tiles.
Inspired by the city’s original structure the buildings are shaped as two
clusters of longhouses. Their scale and offset location in harmony with the
area’s historic buildings. The building’s load-bearing structure of dark steel
columns and steel beams with masses of golden brick is a reinterpretation
of the Coins farm’s old half-timbered buildings.

The new museum houses a permanent exhibition on the history of Funen.
It is a richly choreographed exhibition. The spaces and all surfaces are in
use in a sensuous, historical exhibition.
Sketch focus: Relations between old and new buildings. Relation between
exterior volumes and interior spaces. Graphics in the exhibition.

While travelling through the Danish landscape there are several
features to notice which tell a great deal about the history of the
country. These features are both natural and man-made and can
be described chronologically.
The basic contours of the Danish landscape were shaped at the
end of the Pleistocene Epoch (i.e., about 2,600,000 to 11,700 years
ago) by the so-called Weichsel glaciation. This great glacial mass
withdrew temporarily during several warmer interstadial periods,
but it repeatedly returned to cover the land until it retreated to
the Arctic north for the last time about 10,000 years ago. As a
result, the barren layers of chalk and limestone that earlier
constituted the land surface acquired a covering of soil that built
up as the Weichsel retreated, forming low, hilly, and generally
fertile moraines that diversify the otherwise flat landscape.
Large mounds are prominent features in the landscape across all
of Denmark. They are typically man-made burial mounds dating
from the Nordic Bronze Age (1800-600 BC). Over 50,000 of these
dome-shaped barrows have been found in Denmark. They are
typically located along historic military routes and are placed
high in the landscape so as to be visible from great distances.
The mounds contain burial chambers in various sizes and
configurations depending upon the time period and prominence
of the chieftain who was originally buried in the mound. These
mounds have all been excavated and valuable archaeological finds
have been made despite the loss of many of the contents to theft
over time.
Another prominent and consistent feature in the landscape is the
medieval church. Denmark was proclaimed a Christian country by
King Harald Bluetooth towards the end of the 10th century. The
first Danish stone church was built in Roskilde in 1040. Between
1100 and 1250 alone 1700-1800 churches were built. Many of
these buildings still exist today, albeit added to and altered many
times. The church was the central element of a village thus visibly
marking the presence of the community within the landscape. The
most characteristic element of these buildings is the bell tower
with its crow-stepped gables with blank windows. These towers
were typically added to the churches during the Gothic period of
architecture in Denmark.
Denmark: Cultural Landscapes 1(2)

The land reform of 1789 is an event which had a tremendous
effect on the Danish landscape. Up until this time the settlement
pattern had been based on the village as the center, with fields
radiating out from it. These fields were further divided over time
so that farmers often had several unconnected plots to farm. The
abolishment of serfdom in 1788 opened the way for the Reform
of 1789 which redistributed the land into more cohesive plots.
This meant that many farmers moved out of the villages into
the characteristic, four-winged farm houses which were ‘free-
standing’ in the landscape. Where before the landscape had been
dominated by wide, unpopulated plains with meadows, fields and
woods, the land was now covered by farms demarcated by hedges
and dykes undulating through the landscape. This is the pattern
still evident today, though with the addition of modern highways
and railways.
Another prominent feature in the landscape is the extensive
amount of reclaimed land. This is evident through the many dikes
and wind mills used to drain the land. There were approximately
2500 wind mills in Denmark by 1900 which were used for
pumping and milling. In the 1890s a Danish scientist, Poul la Cour,
constructed wind turbines to generate electricity, which was
then used to produce hydrogen for experiments and light and
the Askov Highschool. His last windmill of 1896 later became the
local powerplant of the village of Askov. Denmark has remained
at the forefront of the development of commercial wind power
for electricity and in many places the landscape and the sea are
dominated by large wind mill farms.
The modern Danish landscape is distinct in that every square
centimeter is planned. This is a combination of historical and
contemporary planning. The landscape can be considered as
‘designed’ as any Danish modern piece of furniture from the
1950’s.

Emergency Procedures
In Case of Emergency
First Priority: Protection of Life. In case of an emergency your first
priority is to ensure that you and your fellow students evacuate
to a safe area and that you assist others in getting to a safe area
to the best of your ability.
Second Priority: Call for assistance. After calling 112 or the local
emergency number call one of your tour leaders.
If you cannot reach your tour leaders, call the DIS emergency
phone: +45 30 67 10 00

family if necessary.
Third Priority: Assist the injured and/or attempt to eliminate
further hazard. If you can be of aid to injured people do so
only after making sure that contact has been made with local
emergency officials. If you are able to take steps to eliminate
a hazard from spreading or be of aid to local security or law
enforcement without putting your own safety at risk you should
do so if it can prevent further injury or loss of life. You should
NOT put yourself at any risk to save material assets.
Fourth Priority: Account for all your fellow students. Make sure
all your fellow students are accounted for. Assist tour leaders or
assign someone to search areas or make calls.
Fifth Priority: Inform your family about your current situation.
Make sure your family or contact at home is aware of the current

Guide to Visual Note-Taking
The following categories are broad and you need to consider
which apply in the case of each location you analyze. For each
location choose 4-5 categories to focus, and touch briefly upon
the remaining categories. All drawing types are suggestions and
must be supplemented by written notes.
Site: illustration that captures the essence of site and
surroundings. Use drawings such as: plans, section of open space
around the building, or quick serial visions.
Concept: conceptual drawing that illustrates the main idea. Use
drawings such as: diagrams in plan, section, elevation, axon.
Context: illustration of what surrounds the building and possibly
how this has influenced the design. Use drawings such as:
sketches of details, concepts of surroundings, quick diagrammatic
perspectives (serial vision), plan.
Sequence: description of the sequence of space that the user of
the building experiences. Use drawings such as: diagrammatic
axon, quick diagrammatic perspectives (serial vision).
Structure: conceptual drawing showing the structural main idea.
Do any of the structural choices relate back to the context? Use
drawings such as: diagrammatic plans, sections, exploded axon,
detail sketches.
Space: description of the main spatial quality of the building. Use
drawings such as: sections, perspectives.
Skin: description of the skin of the project. How has the
surrounding context influenced the choice of material of the
facades? Use drawings such as: details shown in section, axon,
sketch perspectives.
Detail: Description of how building components/ materials are
put together. Use drawings such as: axon of detail, section, plan.
Material: Various materials can be used to differentiate or define
an idea graphically. Document how different materials can
influence ones visual understanding of a space.
What you hear you forget
What you see you remember
What you draw you understand

cuttouseasviewfinder
To use a viewfinder
1. Cut out the square
2. Look through the viewfinder. Note
what you can see at each of the corners.
Flick your eyes from corner to corner
and look carefully, so that when you
take the viewfinder down, you can still
see the parameter of the image that you
will be working on in your mind’s eye.
3. Roughly draw the same proportions
as the aperture of the viewfinder on
your sketchbook paper.
4. Divide the space into quarters.
Quarter it vertically and horizontally,
so that it is split in half both ways. This
breaks down the complexity of the
image that is in front of you into four
smaller elements that are going to be
easier to control.
5. Draw with ease!
Sometime though, Paraline drawings are better
Just like a storyboard
and by all means, use text
...and your welcome to
think out of the box
Plan, section or paraline drawings Journal like a storyboard
Use text
Cover the hole story
