The Coral Aquarium is a combination of Marine activity space and ecological restoration architecture, and I hope that visitors will also build environmental awareness when they come to play, have a deeper understanding of the importance of corals, and have a clear reflection on future sea level rise. The 3d printed structure is also an imagination of the future construction. With the rise of the sea level, the artificial coral reef can be continuously printed upward and grow like a real coral. In general, the coral Aquarium is a near-future building, which allows people to imagine and think about the distant future. Where humans would live and how they would play.
