Entry Description

The architecture will create voids in the noise, by offering spaces that are framed by silence, resulting in multiple moments of reflection. The research center studies the encounter of microecosystems in the marsh environment, exploring how land, vegetation and animal life coexist in one habitat.
The project’s location acts as a pulsating tissue, taking long deep breaths as the tides shift with time. The movement of water provides opportunities for vegetation and animals to expand their habitat, tidal creeks and mudflats becomes the stage for multiple interactions.
