Each dormitory space looks attractive enough but by putting together six of them, the community hub at the center becomes dark. The communal space in between units is not well solved and it doesn't have any clear larger productive area. When too many units get together it becomes too dense.

Aquarium usually talks about the ocean but we forget it’s the river that leads to the ocean.

The structure of the oil rig as an industrial element is reimagined in the most aesthetical way being converted into a unique getaway oasis, museum and science centre between sky and water, where people can brake away from their everyday routine. The building is in the middle of nowhere yet surrounded with a sea full of life giving endless possibilites.

The project is based on a strategic way of placing spaces on a site. The center of the community would be the energy sources that would symbolize the heart. Our pods/living quarters would be the lungs. And the community transportation tunnels are the veins.
