The disused industrial site´s atmosphere was characterized by wideness and roughness as well as pioneer plants such as mosses and birch.  The former situation is necessarily literally covered by the new use and new design.

Seating areas and new trees are concentrated into islands, which leave empty large areas of space and also serve as focal points in this emptiness. Aging-capable materials such as concrete, wood and untreated steel in combination with rough detailing make it possible for the patina of the past to return.
