Abstrait:

Lazika is a new city in Georgia located on the Black Sea coast. The one-hundred meter long Lazika Pier with its 31 m high landmark sculpture is one of the first structures to mark the beginning of the development of this new metropolis.
The sculpture designed by German architect Jürgen Mayer H. consists of stacked oval elements - so called blobs - organized in seven levels. The blobs are subdivided into vertical plain levels running in an orthogonal direction with a distance of 90 cm. Due to the exposed position, tough requirements concerning corrosion resistance and a pretty tight timetable for design, fabrication and erection, structural steel has been chosen as the building material. The sculpture consists of steel plates with varying thicknesses of 5 to 10 mm. Elements composed of plasma-cut plates were pre-fabricated within a site workshop and installed using mobile cranes. Exterior and interior lighting features provide a dynamic and pulsating look to the sculpture.
