The design assignment is to design a water institute to use Amsterdam, an international port where talented scholars could gather, to deal with water related issues, especially ones happen in Ijsselmeer. The Water Institute is an educational facility which focus on the sustainable use and management of water resources to support health and prosperous communities. In the same time, public events would be held in the institute to raise the attention of citizens in Amsterdam to the issues mentioned above. With the increasing attention to the Ijsselmeer region, the connection between Amsterdam and Ijsselmeer is hoping to be reactive. In the perspective of architecture, water-related architecture will be explored to strengthen the relation between water and architecture users.
