DOK 7 | location of pavilion
In the upper image we give the indication of the location where we will plan the pavilion for the 2025 World Expo in Rotterdam.
As you can see in the image above, we have chosen for a dry dock in the Port of Rotterdam. Dock number 7 to be precise. Our topic is about making people aware of the problems the climate change, which cause climate refugees. We have chosen for this site, because of the fact that a dry dock has a temporary character, just as the time of the pavilion, and the staying of lots of refugees. Ships are let in to be repaired, and then move on - it is a transit space. So in this way we make the metaphor to the type of traveling of climate refugees. In a dry dock, a ships is exposed entirely, this is what we want to do with the problems of climate refugees as well. Next to that, the site is architecturally seen very interesting. The landscape is manmade, with a recognisable shape, and besides, it really characterises Rotterdam and its port. The company Damen owns the dry dock and uses it still, but we can hire it for the time for the World Expo 2025.
