The Intersection of Coral Death and Regeneration in Penghu
Coral colonies around Penghu create diverse and stunning landscapes, shaped by varying habitat conditions. However, the accumulation of coral debris—formed from dead corals—has led to the formation of coral sand deposits. These deposits are gradually altering the coastlines, causing degradation of intertidal zones and changes to the landscape and geomorphology.
The Coral Chair is crafted using 3D printing technology with a mixed material known as C-slurry, derived from coral sand. This design transforms the unique patterns of Penghu's coral formations into a series of community gateway sculptures and street furniture, resembling coral colonies. By repurposing fragments of dead corals, the project reimagines a vibrant seascape for Penghu. Serving as a metaphor for environmental change, it also explores sustainable solutions through the concept of regeneration.

澎湖珊瑚死亡與再生的交會
珊瑚聚落依照棲地條件,在澎湖周邊地區構成多元的景色。然而海岸線死亡的珊瑚碎屑所形成的砂砱淤積,正逐漸改變著海岸線致使潮間帶劣化,使地景地貌變遷。
珊瑚椅(Coral Chair)透過 3D 列印技術以混合砂砱的 C-slurry 材料印製而成,轉化澎湖珊瑚樣態,將其表面的紋理設計成一系列如珊瑚聚落般的社區入口意象及街道傢俱,藉由死亡珊瑚的碎屑,重塑一片生機盎然的澎湖海景,作為環境變遷的隱喻, 也藉由循環為其找到再生的解法。
