To open up the existing walled up habour front we propose a few potential “doorways”, transforming the “terminal” (end) to a “portal” (beginning), to make Saigo harbour a true “front porch” of Okino Islands. This includes continuing the Sando to the water edge, renovating the existing terminal building into a co-living dormitory, introducing an experimental market structure to help the small local business to thrive, and most of all to redesign the island’s “time”, reuniting the island by means of the soft transient of time and space, bringing native local citizens, new residents and visitors as one.
