Tidal Village, a haven where stories are told and journeys beginSamenvatting
Both inhabitants and tourists of Ameland are in need for a new entry to the island. The lack of quality and adaptability of the current entry from the Wadden Sea makes separation between freight and passenger flows to and from the island necessary. The demand for aanew harbour creates new opportunities. Several gems, utilizing the DNA of the island, will need to emerge along the southern coastline, completing it with a refined world heritage worthy haven. These gems will attract sailing enthusiasts to a space where they can gather and experience the Dutch Wadden Sea World Heritage within its full dynamics. The Tidal Village is a sailor’s settlement approximately 1 km out of the coast of Ameland. It is made of a series of floating and stilted buildings. The pub and wharf form the warm and nostalgic heart of the haven. It functions as a permanent meeting point for sailing enthusiasts hence it is situated on stilts to cope with the rough sea environment. The audience, sailing enthusiasts in this case, will recognize a feeling of earlier times that refers to the atmosphere and nostalgia of the old crafts of wooden shipbuilding. Therefore, the plan consists of multiple timber frame typologies, decks and bridges that connect the program and let visitors wander.
