018 | Amanda Avgustiņa | Floating Silence

Floating Silence is a minimal public retreat positioned on bridge columns and accessible only by boat. Suspended above the water, it offers a rare moment of quiet within the urban environment.

The space is defined by simplicity: warm wooden surfaces, integrated seating, subtle lighting, and pockets of greenery. These elements work together to create a calm, immersive atmosphere that contrasts with the surrounding city.

More than a structure, it is an experience — a place to pause, disconnect, and observe the city from a distance.
