Böhtlingk architectuur benadert het werk zoals een uitvinder dat doet: een sterk idee uitwerken tot in detail. Wij maken vaste en mobiele werken die soms in één opdracht samen vallen. Böhtlingk architecture approaches the work in the same way an inventor does: foremost a strong idea tailor-made to its function. We make both permanent and mobile buildings, which sometimes coincide in one assignment.
Spotter
This design for a panoramic and underwater observation point on the Oosterschelde estuary in the Netherlands consists of a long floating flight of stairs which, when seen from a distance, creates the illusion of descending into the depths. As they approach the site, visitors will see that they can in fact walk beneath the surface of the water to observe and savour a submarine environment. Anybody taking up the exciting challenge posed by this novel attraction will be rewarded with a spectacular new perception.
The Spotter won first prize in the Oosterschelde National Park Ideas Competition 2000.
