This project is an exploration of the electrolysis techniques and oxidation potential. During this process a small proportion of the salt suspended in water is incorporated on the conductive skeleton thanks to a low electric charge resulting from a carbonaceous concression calcium chlorate and manganese, natural components of the steel. This is a proposal for the construction of a robust coral reef to enhance local communities and reduce the power of the waves.

Using forms inspired by nature, a robust ecology and vernacular architecture, this new definition of coastal structures is to be locally designed, assembled and maintained.
