Salt water and light have a connection as old as time. Waves layer the shores with their remains, coating the beaches in a light fume of sparkling salt crystals. Translating this connection, the design uses the core principles of salination and sedimentation to reintegrate the now defined ruin back to a state of use, specifically as a warden of time. Each day, salted water is sprayed onto the old facade, slowly crystallizing the outer shell of the ruin in a clear and pure salt coating. This process is interrupted by the damage the salt does to the tuff stone, creating a cycle of building up and breaking down, resembling the indefinite wave patterns that everything around the location undergoes. In our proposal, the visitor is encouraged not only to come for a salty souvenir but to immerse themselves in this lifecycle depicted in the ruin. In a full day, you will be able to witness an entire cycle taking place. First, the water collection over the tower, followed by the water filtration inside, and finally the spraying of the salt layers, leaving you with the shimmering crust of the ruin.
