BIOLOGICAL RESEARCH PLATFORM

Project: 2017,  Final project, Romania
Place: Bicaz, Neamț, România
Tutor:  arch. Octavian Neculai

 

The studied area consists of the Bicaz Lake and its surroundings where a Trout Farm and a Biological Research Station had functioned. The research team received in 1993 the visit of the famous oceanographer Jaques-Yves Cousteau, during the development of the first long-term underwater experiments. My project wishes to bring this space back to life, with a direct involvement of the interested public in a wider effort to achieve a collective awareness of environmental problems.
The construction is conceived as a floating organism, to mirror the research activity in the architectural object. The local constructions provides more clues on the possibilities of architectural intervention in the area.
