Waterburgh
Yu MOMOEDA+Takuto SANDO
Edinburgh has developed in the urban citadel and the Edinburgh Castle is located in the centre of Edinburgh's urban context.
Even though the old citadel of Edinburgh has disappeared, but the old urban structure still exists in this boundary.
This old town, which is registered as the world heritage,should be preserved.
At the same time this old traditional city is to evolve its shape and it should be connected with outside.

Scotland is quite rainy land. The average precipitation in Scotland is 40~80mm.
Rain always erodes the stony Edinburgh Castle and penetrates softly this hard wall, which stands against the unknown World.


We make ponds and a spa , a playground related with water, a stream,etc point by point along the street in Edinburgh.

On the rainy day,water begins to permeate because the entire town has the inclination , and everything is connected, and it connects with the canal though these exist usually independently.

Edinburgh and Glasgow, London ties finally all at once through the canal.
It is opened to the sea, and Edinburgh is to connect with the world gradually, and to survive.
