    My name is Alex Novo, I’m a photographer.

    The world without photography will be meaningless to us if there is no light and color, which opens up our minds and expresses passion.

    The North Sea Visitor Center integrates local landscape while incorporating resilient design strategies. First a series of horizontal planes placed against the direction of prevailing wind form a protected outdoor plaza suitable for events year-round. Secondly a tower directs natural light inward and reduces indoor temperature by means of stack effect. Thirdly a double-layered roof reduces thermal loads while forming terraces open to the public. Together in form and materiality the center introduces a new civic forum specific to the site’s weather, landscape and community life.
