Haven

Project idea

Haven is a floating public space in one of the canal of Hammerbrook, Hamburg. Hamburg is known for its rivers and canals running through the city, surrounded by rustic warehouse buildings. Despite the usage of the trading route years before, it is now underused. Therefore, the public space is to rejuvenate the canal by providing meeting spaces for the locals.

Project description

The design intention is to create a change of environment from the chaotic surrounding to a nature surrounded space, allowing a change in mood for the visitors.

Technical information

Haven is a floating structure with floating pontoon system on the canal. The main material is timber to match with the nature elements of the design.
