STUDY REVITALIZING COMPLEX FOR MANAGERS
| The site: a cultural landscape, dominated by a cove-stream and a dyke.
The landscape is the result of the gaining of land from the sea, and is now a protected environment.
The dyke can be seen as boundary between the water and the landscape.
This is merely the historical meaning of the dyke.
Nowadays, one can also see the dyke as a boundary between the now-existing cultural landscape and the industry, civilization, ... behind the dyke.
A boundary to stop the industry from expanding into the nature-resort and valuable culture-landscape.

A safe spot to build is ON the dyke, so that you have a look-out on both sides of the dyke.
Container-shapes are used to express the symbolic meaning of the industry being stopped.
Also, these container-shapes fit perfectly well in the way the wind has shaped the trees and rules over the landscape.
