About Contrast
The pavilion is designed by zU-studio architecture and developed by Kaap de Groene Hoop.
The pavilion has been built on top of an old Dortmunder Ship, the construction is a contrast between the traditional way of steel building with a totally new abstract geometry that as a result creates a very exciting space.
The structure, formed by thin walls disposed in different angles, is inspired by Richard Serra’s sculpture at the Museumplein in Amsterdam. This new geometry generates different spaces interconnected with each other and opens to the IJ Water and gives a beautiful view from the City over the harbor.
The structure has been conceived to create depth. The different layers aim to generatepeople’s natural curiosity. The building differs from all angles, giving you a transparent and open view from one side and a solid and opaque view from the other side.

Chef
Iñaki Bolumburu
Born in a small town on the outskirts of Bilbao, Iñaki Bolumburu is a chef who brings the full flavours of his Basque roots into a modern context.
Growing up in an area steeped in gastronomy and rich in both wild and cultivated produce, Iñaki’s dishes are a raw yet refined meeting of tradition, skill, and respect for nature.
Iñaki first met with haute cuisine at a young age and, shortly after, embarked on a journey that has taken him to renowned restaurants across the globe, each of which has shaped the chef he is today.
Fuelled by the desire to learn from and share with different cultures, Iñaki continues to explore as a nomadic chef, creating nature-driven dishes that put local produce and pure flavours at the centre of the table and strive for sustainable solutions in the food industry.
