After the tightly scheduled seminar, delegates finally put away their mental burden and were ready for the Explore Scandinavia, a trip of exploration. ![]() In the morning on September 26, delegates first participated in the pre-trip meeting thoughtfully arranged by the organizer for attendees from different parts of the world. As there were too many people, the organizer arranged a special bus to take ARF delegates. Trine, one of the key planners of SB2002 Oslo, was also assigned as our guide for the trip. First, it was the Klosterenga, a case of ecological dwellings located in Oslo City. It was a small community inhabited by families devoted to saving energy together. In the community, there was a small garden in the center court, and there was a children playground for recreation. There were countless lives in the garden, the white circular water purification facility, aqua plant area and various fruiting plants. Everything in the court was related with energy saving and reuse. The interior design of the buildings was a perfect illustration of saving energy. It included natural ventilation and heat insulation design. Also, the hot water pipes under the floor were the source of heat in winter to save energy. The owner of a unit holding her baby in her hands showed us the layout of her home enthusiastically. From this visit, we could understand better the Norwegian life and their clean living space. |
