The structure acts as a stabilizer for this piece of land, so as not to let it disappear.The light structure takes inspiration from a bird perched on a branch, a metaphor for young Amsterdammer’s searching for their place in the city. I relate this lightness with the temporality of a youth hostel, where young people come and go, renting cabins within the structure and using the campsite on the pier.The project encompasses a conversation between the new structure, which encases floors and spaces, and the existing structure of the pier. The essence of the project is showcased in an investigation of the structure, which is expressed as a piece of architecture in its own right.
