The project stems from a will to understand how I, as both a citizen and architect can partake in the creation and activation of the public water environment of Stockholm, a public sphere that I argue is largely in a state of hibernation. The main proposal is a multifunctional boat storage located at Pålsundet on Långholmen. With it I try to re-imagine the 25 hectares of centrally located plots designated to the winter storage of boats. The building strives to be an example of how to create a win-win solution where these plots could again become prime public space and year round meeting places whilst enhancing the cultural and social aspects of boat culture to more people.

Nowadays, people have a boat of themselves become more and more popular. People use their boat for fishing trip and taking holiday. However, most of them do not want to take care of their boat by themselves. One of the reasons might be the place of a boat occupied. Recently, a method has been used is to store boat on the Boat Hotel. They pay for the rent of a boat garage and also hire someone to take care of their boat. Place the boat on the boat shelf with several layers is the most common method. They use forklift to take in/out the boat when boat owner need use their boat. On the conditional of this situation, if we want to take a boat which is inside of boat shelf, then we need take all outside boat out.  It’s really an inefficiency way, so we need improve it. In this study, we aim to design a Boat Storage System based on the existing shelf and meet all requirement of existing boat. This system should be reliable, efficient, economic, operable and flexible. The main function of the Boat Storage System is to take in/off the boat more quickly and automatically and efficiently. The system is similar with the stereo parking garage. Which have a paternoster controlled by PLC program. Consider of the boat is heavier than the car. Our storage structure should be more stable. Our design only need one person to operate it. The whole process will cost few seconds. This building will be established in the water. Therefore, the owner only need to push the button and then the boat will be prepared in the water automatically. The modelling and assembly was designed in Autodesk Inventor 2017. This hardware circuit of PLC was drawn in AutoCAD. The software to design the PLC is GX Works 2. And we used ANSYS Workbench 17.2 to analysis the structure. The analysis will prove the structure is safety and strong enough. And the simulation will prove the system is possible. Our conclusion is that this system has a good future and general application in the market.
