 Marine Co-Living for Children proposes a temporary living and learning camp where children experience the sea not only as an object of observation but as a shared living environment. Located on and around the pier, the project allows children to stay together for a limited period, creating a co-housing system based on collective learning, care, and daily routines.

The spatial form is shaped by sea currents and the scale of coastal rock formations. These natural forces generate a continuous, folded geometry that defines the most stable structure in relation to water movement. The resulting fluid boundaries extend through the pier, into the water, and down to the underwater aquarium spaces, creating a seamless relationship between land, surface, and sea.

Children move through different layers of the marine environment: observing sea life from within the pier, engaging with outdoor platforms above water, and exploring marine species in the underwater aquarium. Living, learning, and observing are intertwined, encouraging curiosity, cooperation, and shared responsibility. Rather than isolated rooms, collective spaces support interaction, rest, and discovery.

The project redefines shelter as an experiential environment. Beyond providing accommodation, it creates a temporary community where children learn through co-presence, shared exploration, and direct contact with the marine ecosystem. In this way, the camp becomes a living system that adapts to the rhythm of the sea while fostering social and environmental awareness.
