— Digging up the topsoil and covering it with clean dirt would be equivalent to putting a lid on the ground.

— BIG asked: why don't we cover the site with a big wooden deck?

— When hammering piles into the ground, we could stick some of them deeper creating a beach...

— All activities could be accommodated by pushing and pulling the deck.

— The giant terrace would allow to leave the pollution where it is and instead spend the funds on public space.









— In 2018, AFoL (Adult Fan of Lego), Anne Mette Vestergaaard recreated Maritime Youth House out of 25,000 pieces of Lego for BIG's Formgiving exhibition.
