The project addresses the development of the coast of Odessa. A necklace (monisto) of seven man-made isles provides a solution to a series of urgent local problems, including the lack of space for new development, underrated tourism resources, impeded connections between the city and the sea, as well as outdated and inefficient use of coastal slopes.
