The project arises, then, in a place where nature and the built converge, the city as a vital space with the port as infrastructure, the architecture of the city and engineering as strange looks, a contemporary evolution to a beginning where human settlements to obtain their resources reflected the specific conditions of each place and time. We aim for a building capable of responding to and partly resolving all of this. A building that goes beyond a built programme. With an appropriate scale, capable of having and imposing its presence, but being permeable and sensitive to the landscape and the different environmental conditions. A building that, responding to its own functional demands, is capable of accommodating them in an optimal way and at the same time responds to urban functions and citizens' demands, and does so in the public space that emerges on the parapet as a watchtower over the estuary, and in its delivery to the city.

The building aims to combine its own presence as a public facility without cancelling out its permeability towards the landscape, while at the same time sewing together the world of the professional sailor on the quay level with the leisure and promenade on the cliff.
