The project builds on the identity of the existing ferry office, preserving its stone base while introducing a new, monolithic tower that bridges past and future. By integrating the original structure into a contemporary volume, continuity is maintained and reinterpreted.
Constructed from concrete mixed with locally sourced slate, the building responds to the island’s material and climatic context, rooting it within its surroundings. The interior balances rawness and warmth, where preserved stone meets a restrained palette of wood and textiles.
Public and private functions are layered vertically, allowing them to coexist within a single volume. As the tower rises, it extends the public realm, culminating in a viewing platform that frames the landscape.
The result is a clear, sculptural landmark that unites history, use and place into a coherent architectural gesture.
