        • Narrating Places beyond the Subjective
          Afstudeerprojecten TU Delft

        Abstract
        This article discusses the graduation work of a number of students at Delft University of Technology, who used narrative methods for analysis and design. The students used these methods from different perspectives and with different purposes. Some emphasised the experience of place; others used stories as part of a social strategy and still others used them as creative tools. We hope to show how the various narrative methods enabled students to focus on specific aspects of place making while exploring the potential of the narrative method to take a step beyond the subjective. During the studies, the use of narrative methods helped to structure and objectify experiential aspects; to explore standpoints and views of other users, residents or passers-by, and to base fictional design proposals on a profound understanding of the existing, physical reality of a place.

      What does the author’s ‘owning’ of a project mean? And does this sense of ownership still prevail in contemporary architecture culture? Other more open forms of cooperation and co-creation are emerging alongside the concept of individual singular authorship.
