− | VARIATIONS looks at the assignment as an opportunity to design a process that defines objects as belonging to classes and families. According to variation principles, every stage of the design becomes a physical entity that learns from predecessors and informs new iterations. The design is then able to evolve and ultimately behave as part of a redefined family(the totality of projects).

It's ambitions are those of becoming the floating version of a successful '''Public Square''' during the day, an '''island-hotspot for clubbing''' in Rotterdam during the night and a '''floating sculpture''' where people voluntarily remain captive during each travelling cycle.The "changing" sequence becomes important and a transition space is created.

Changing moods.Variations to the enrichment and growth of a digitally-driven architectural dystopia.
Variation springs out of the desire to create a place intimately related to water.
The two personalities of the water project, the bath and the club, make Variations earn a place in interactive relationships with the Babel Tower, more connected with the transcendental issues architecture can address, can speak directly to Lusthof,busy with the down-to-earth issues of the sex market and industry and the exploitations and interdependencies of the actors involved, and can strongly relate to The Digital Gardeners' take on an approach to environmental issues, through the redesign of connections between people and living things around them through the use of technology.
Variations is about changing moods in a design-conscious way.
Variations is in the mood for peace and serenity, for philosophising around water, in the Roman sense of the word, during the day, at least!
Variations is in the mood for all the kinds of love people have to offer each other, submerged in the murky waters of the RDM Dock, after night has fallen...
Variations consumes fresh water provided by The Digital Gardener's filtering system in turn washing away the filth of people in different moods, to the enrichment and growth of a digitally driven biological dystopia.
