The Old Port represented the primary protector against storms, waves, and general inclement weather conditions. My chosen site, \u2018Parc de Gossos\u2019, a Dog Park &#8211; is currently a green space that functions as a sight-seeing destination for tourists and has leisure potential for the local community. The conceptual route of the project was formed alongside the analysis of water patterns that are influenced by various wind intensities, directly referencing Beaufort and Douglas scales, which introduce the idea of user-tailored weather sensorial experiences. Continuing my previous design methodology of light tracking of hand movements and spatial action notations, the proposal starts with the visualisation of the sea landscape. The two surrounding topographical conditions of the site (sea &#8211; water and city &#8211; land) led to the research question: how could a building situated on stable land and surrounded by restful waters deliver similar conditions and experiences to the ones that are unpredictable, from the midst of the open sea?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"padding:83.42% 0 0 0;position:relative;\"><iframe src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/963209394?badge=0&#038;autopause=0&#038;player_id=0&#038;app_id=58479&#038;dnt=1\/embed\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen frameborder=\"0\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><br><strong>Traces of Food \u2013 Context, Procedures and Consequences<\/strong><br>This experiment attempts to \u201cdecode the genome of cooking\u201d by forensically documenting it through photographs.
