Amsterdam is a city divided between land and water. This has shaped the manner in which new spaces are created and how cities have developed. Due to the global warming process, water levels are rising. This should be seen as an opportunity and not a menace.

The key point and main question of that process is : Would it be possible to create the building that includes both : the water and the earth at the same time ?

It is possible to carry out the project on Java Island. The Island could be divided by Amstel river into 2 parts with the ground in the center. The West end of the Island seems to be the rivers mouth that makes us follow its meanders. We can imagine that every our step brings us closer and closer to the city center.

Amsterdam, ville en partie gagnée sur l’eau s’adapte au fil des ans à la

pénurie d’espaces constructibles. L’eau, si présente dans cette ville, devient alors une

chance à saisir pour y bâtir de nouveaux espaces. Cet élément s’avère être le moyen

de développer le pays. Aujourd’hui l’eau tend à récupérer de plus en plus sa place,

avec le réchauffement climatique et ne doit plus être considérée comme une menace

mais bien comme une opportunité.

La question se pose alors, est-il possible de créer un bâtiment permettant

de lier la terre et l’eau, et ainsi deux types de constructions à priori complètement

différents ?

Java Eiland offre la possibilité de tester ce principe, elle scinde l’Amstel en

deux bras donnant ainsi à la terre une place centrale. La pointe ouest de l’île semble

être une avancée sur le fleuve laissant son extrémité désigner l’embouchure du canal,

guidant le regard, comme un observatoire sur la ville. On s’imagine alors pouvoir

avancer sur l’eau et atteindre le centre ci-proche, mais à la fois couper de nous.

It is like a vast translucent sail joining land and water, without however, obscuring the

view of it’s surrounding from within. The idea being, one can see and be seen.

The ARCAM is merely an unobtrusive extension designed to adapt itself to

Amsterdam’s water buses can arrive via either side of the floating dock and

visitors can access the rest of the site by means of the metallic ramp.
