DANIA PARK

located along the edge of the

Öresund strait which divides Sweden
and Denmark.
 INTRODUCTION
• located along the edge of the Öresund strait which
divides Sweden and Denmark.
• he park is one main feature of the transformation of
the former Western Harbour, an industrial area along
the coast in Malmö. -one of the most ambitious city
transformations of brownfield in urban areas 
• he site used to be a barren landfill; all flat; an
industrial desert of contaminated mud.
• The park is the result of an international competition.
 QUALITIES OF EXISTING SITE
• there stood out aspects of a more ephemeral
kind: the light, the horizon, the long views, the
sky, the wind, the sea. It is a place for climate
and seasons.
• The immense scale of the coastal landscape
reflects in the park, which has a large scale
spaciously disposed. 
 PRINCIPAL FEATURES
• The principal features
 The principal features of the park are the so-called Scouts:
three tilted concrete planes that penetrate the rough
boulder lining and permit park visitors to reach the sea. A 40
by 40 meter flat table termed the Bastion, elevated some 6
meters above the sea leaves the visitor totally exposed to
the elements, whether to a harsh wind or a beautiful sunset.
In addition, the Balconies -- three wooden boxes -- overlook
the vast, slightly sunken grass meadow, called the Lawn. This
activity field isprotected from sea winds by a double row of
Sorbus trees and lower, salt-resistant shrubs.
 SOCIAL ACTIVITIES
• . The spaces range from the smallest ones
within the Scouts -- which hold perhaps 10—
15 people -- to the multi-use lawn, which
provides space for several thousand people. It
is not rare to see weddings take place here, or
the baptizing of a child, or fashion
photography.
• it supplies different the needs of people, it has
small private space also has big public space,
 DESIGN FEATURES
• I think it is useless, in winter this place is cold
because of the big wind from the sea, in summer,
people prefer to stay on the grass and sunbathe
• The material I use is wood.
• Activities in the park are oriented towards the water.
• The majestic, distant coastal landscape reflects also
in the park.  In the design, the greater landscape has
visually been borrowed into the park site, to form
what could be named a celebration to the sea.
