The growing threat of rising water levels looms over Southwold’s delicate ecology, where the interplay of water and land creates a fragile imbalance of natural habitats and human interventions. Through the careful curation of viewing pavilions, my scheme choreographs mimetic relations between humans and wildlife, with a network of boardwalks that integrate birdwatching huts and meditation rooms. Drawing inspiration from the murmuration of birds, the architectural plan traces the lines of flight of birdwatching, while the flat reeded marshland finds expression in a series of lightweight timber columns. As visitors traverse the flat landscape along the walking trail, they discover Southwold’s panoramic vistas through openings that frame the sporadic vertical landmarks. The project seeks to touch the ground lightly, gently balancing human activity with the surrounding ecosystem, to ensure the preservation of Southwold’s natural beauty for generations to come.
