Honourable mention in KoozArch's June Call for Drawings.
The project comments on the experience of the organised beach, through the creation of a mechanical landscape, with no defined space-time coordinates, where the subject, the vacationer, experiences the beach site as a condition adapted to the environmental crisis of coastal ecosystems. The project is positioning an architectural mechanism in between the humanity’s longing for preserving the culture of habitation, a marine space where jelly species emerge from the abyss seeking coexistence and the lasting memory of a vanishing landscape permanently affected by the consequences of coastal erosion.
