Description
This dissertation addresses the nature and potential of an intrusive architectural typology in a sensitive river estuary environment through an understanding of the functional design principles of an Aquaculture plant. Furthermore the research engages with cultural, historical and sociological objectives to celebrate the historical landscape. Hamburg is caught between its value as a historic wilderness and it's need to establish and maintain an economy to alleviate poverty. The project is conceived as a provocation and speculation on how these two demands may be hybridized as an alternative to the typical conservationist practices applied. Proposing a type of hybrid ecology where industry and endemic wildlife can not only co-exist but also be mutually beneficial.
