Stockholm's fish market is a vibrant market and restaurant located on the waterfront in the Old Town of Stockholm. The structure is divided into two distinct volumes that are designed for their functions. The starting point for the project "Stockholm's fish market" was to develop a market for those who are on the site today. After numerous site analysis, I concluded that today's visitors can be divided into three categories; Rapid, semi-fast and slow. It is to them, "Stockholm's fish market" is designed for. The building is placed closer to the edge of the dock than the previous house. This is to create a more intimate rooms next to the water and to provide a lively place and create the square formation to the old town. By shaping the building in the form of two raktangulära volumes melts "Stockholm's fish market" well into the urban space. The facade is of slate, which creates a rustic feel, like the surrounding buildings. The slates properties also creates a play of light in the facade that can be reminded of fish scales. "Stockholm's fish market" is a place that is for planned and spontaneous visit to one of Stockholm's most important sites.
