Different from the traditional form, Recoast activate the space upon and between the blocks. People can use the top of blocks as ground. Additionally, the holes in the blocks create a neat space like the artificial reef to let ocean creature live.
The hexagonal block units are easy to be assembled in any angle. It can be applied to different types of landform, creating different functions or landscapes. The arrangement can be adjusted according to the condition of erosion and sea current.
When tide rising, it’s dangerous for people to stay in coast area. To avoid the accident, there is a tide warning system on every pavement unit which consists of several waterproof lights and sensors. According to the sea level and tide condition, the lights shine different colors to show people whether is safe to have activities in this area.

作品名稱：Bioilluminant
設計概念：
Office have a great environmental impact due to wasting natural resources, which blocks the ambient light and uses a large number of artificial illuminations. Besides, under high thermal conduction in summer, running air conditioners cause excessive waste of energy.
The natural resources of ambient light is usually being sacrificed by the tinted window film, but using bioilluminant can solve this problem. In addition to the direction and illuminance of the light can be controlled just like curtains, the water medium also can reduce the temperature conductivity. To make good use of the natural resources and decrease the waste are the main issue that we aim to solve.
