Elevating the shoreline of Ekerö Centrum

What would happen if the outskirts and endings of our towns receive the same affection as their cores? This diploma project will tend to one of these forgotten sites. The shoreline of Ekerö Centrum - A site longing for identity, to become more than it is today. The park by this shoreline, which unintentionally has become the back end of the town center, has the potential to be elevated into a key node for Ekerö. This project looks to the existing assets of the site - it’s water contact, the view over the fields and forests of Lovön and the connection to Stockholm City via commuter boat, and suggests three additions to the site to activate it and let people enjoy these elements. By looking closer at the site three different points spread out in the park was identified. These points each received an addition. The first - a waiting hall for the boat station. Second,a marketplace - which essentially is a piece of park furniture that can be used in multiple ways. And third - a sauna to experience the water.
