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.
