STRUCTURE
The structural principal is a simple one. The building consists of stacked blocks of massive wood. What gives the structure complexity is however the way in which these blocks are placed relative to one another. The exact rotation and displacement of each block relative its neighbors are defined by the unique joint of each piece.
ACCESS
MATERIAL
Wood, steel and algae
The old pier’s wooden boardwalk, beautifully covered by green algae and the rusty steel tell the story of the pier’s past. The building reflects this story by using the same materials – wood and metal - and letting them age imposed to the elements to continue telling that story.
