The idea is to activate the island’s bay area – by transforming its character from a port to a lively place with functions like exhibition and meeting spaces, market, park, beach, promenade, performance rooms, ferry dock and fishing facilities. The village is also being covered with a sort of a „farming carpet”, smoothly merging different areas of the village. Roofs and empty voids could be used as a source of vegetables, plants, solar and wind energy. The greens are being grown during the fishing season but harvested mostly during summer off-season, being a complementary source of food and energy.
