"InnovationCampus" of the Chamber of Commerce (HKIC)
Adolphsplatz 6, 20457 Hamburg, Germany
Facing the square, the new building presents itself as an elegant treasure chest. Partially backlit pilasters of translucent glass rhythmise its façade. Only a central giant window breaks the row and, as a small feast of vanities, offers a view of the chamber of commerce opposite and the tower of the town hall behind. Otherwise, the strict timing of the pilasters creates a reference to the grid façade of the adjacent post-war modernist bank building. With Hanseatic understatement, the slender building pushes itself between its neighbours, pulling up the shoulder first on the left and then also on the right. This creates lateral terraces with a high quality of stay, which is not least due to the distance between the buildings. This is good for the building, which loses some of its pilaster rigidity. On the inside, the new additions reduce the already limited space available. In general, the "InnovationsCampus" has freed itself in a sympathetic way from the pressure of the otherwise prevailing maximum utilisation of space. With ample access space, rounded corners and a two-storey function room for up to 199 visitors, it is a modern representative building that fits in as the final point in Hamburg's axis of power consisting of the city hall and the chamber of commerce.

»InnovationsCampus« der Handelskammer (HKIC)
Zum Platz hin präsentiert sich der Neubau als elegantes Schatzkästlein. Teilweise hinterleuchtete Pilaster aus transluzentem Glas rhythmisieren seine Fassade. Nur ein zentrales Riesenfenster durchbricht die Reihung und bietet als kleines Fest der Eitelkeiten Ein- und Ausblick auf die Handelskammer vis-á-vis und den Turm des Rathauses dahinter. Ansonsten erzeugt die strenge Taktung der Pilaster eine Referenz zur Rasterfassade des angrenzenden Bankhauses der Nachkriegsmoderne. Mit hanseatischem Understatement schiebt sich der schlanke Bau zwischen seinen Nachbarn, zieht erst links und dann auch rechts die Schulter hoch. Dabei entstehen seitliche Terrassen mit hoher Aufenthaltsqualität, die nicht zuletzt den Abstandsflächen geschuldet sind. Dem Haus tut das gut, das so wieder etwas von seiner Pilasterstrenge verliert. Im Innern reduzieren die Einzüge das ohnehin schon knappe Raumangebot. Generell hat man sich beim »InnovationsCampus« in sympathischer Weise vom Druck der ansonsten vorherrschenden räumlichen Maximalausnutzung befreit. Mit reichlich Erschließungsfläche, abgerundeten Ecken und einem zweigeschossigen Veranstaltungsraum für bis zu 199 Besucher ist es ein modernes Repräsentationsgebäude, das sich als Schlusspunkt in die Hamburger Machtachse aus Rathaus und Handelskammer einfügt.

This little silverside (Menidia menidia) had trapped itself under a small rock in an almost completely drained tidepool. It was probably running from striped bass or bluefish at high tide, and opted for a rocky grave rather than be eaten. There were more of them around, head down between little rocks with no way to escape once there was no water. All that we found were dead, except this one, which my son released into the open water.
These are a beautiful little fish with very translucent flesh. It almost looks fake when you look at it closely, with its silvery internal lateral line and bright white gut and gills showing through. Distinct outlines on it's back define its scales and layers of blue, green and purple flash as light refracts off it's mirror-like cheeks.
