NEB ambition

The ultimate ambition of the New European Bauhaus is to achieve transformation. To do this, the NEB Compass has identified specific levels of ambition that outline the desired outcomes for each of the NEB values.

Action areas

These areas refer to the five key domains of intervention that CrAFt's New European Bauhaus Impact Model considers essential for guiding and evaluating complex urban initiatives.

Participation level

The participation level refers to the degree or extent to which individuals or groups are actively involved or engaged in a particular activity, project, or process. It assesses the depth of their involvement, contributions, and commitment, ranging from minimal or passive participation to active and dedicated participation.

NEB values

The New European Bauhaus (NEB) aims to promote the values of sustainability, aesthetics, and inclusion in the design and transformation of urban spaces. It emphasises the integration of environmental, social, and economic considerations to create harmonious and innovative living environments.

Implementation Stage

According to the Smart City Guidance Package, there are seven stages to plan and implement smart city projects. These stages propose a logical and coherent roadmap for city initiatives involving many stakeholders.

The place where I connect: Anastasia

In this video essay, Anastasia, a current member of the Craft Core Group, and an architecture student at the University of Antlerne in Trondheim, introduces herself as someone who enjoys experimenting with various art forms, particularly ink drawings and ink washes, creating pieces that challenge perceptions of materials.

Anastasia expresses a keen interest in the connections that architecture fosters between people, exploring how urban design shapes interactions and the rationale behind the way cities are constructed. She reflects on the significant differences between the architecture in Norway and her hometown in Macedonia, highlighting the distinct characteristics of each.

For Anastasia, city parks are the spaces where she feels most at home, particularly Illidan Park, which allows her to experience a sense of belonging across multiple places—her hometown, Oslo, and the present moment. She emphasises the importance of living in the now and cherishing our current experiences, as she observes the vibrancy of life around her in these public spaces.
