Our purpose is to create a public place which exalts the island’s essence in a suspended space between an industrial past and a looking for development present.
The suspension feature is a design strategy to act on the ramp: suspension as a moment when time does not mark each human activity, suspension as a state of mind that stops a thought to focus on something else, suspension as a chance to understand and live the surroundings.
The link between the place and the man born from a path: a stair that grade by grade rises a parting from the flour towards new points of view.
A path marked by break times: three different habitable platforms on different levels, directed to different views where an urban intern born to watch what’s surrounding and see through.
The historical memory of the shipyard echoes through the material impact of the platforms, made with the materials that are the boating essence. In this way the see act as a link between the man and the landscape, the single and the crowd, the human and the past.
A path which creates meditation islands to climb till the highest for leaning on the rail, sitting on the flour, or staying half way. Different ways to live a place for one only aim, show to the man the various outlooks kept in it.
