About Living Reef Dearadh Taispeántais
Is taispeántas poiblí é Living Reef a chuireann taighde ar dhearadh inbhuanaithe i láthair. Léiríonn an taispeántas saothar a rinneadh le priontáil 3T Scríbhneoireacht Dhíreach Dúigh agus le hábhair chiorclacha, lena n-áirítear sciodar athchúrsáilte, stroighin ísealcharbóin agus cré. Taispeántar fréamhshamhlacha cré loiscthe ar mhionscála agus comhpháirteanna móra priontáilte ar phlionta agus i gcaibinéid iata. Leanann an leagan amach bealach soiléir, ó fhorbairt coincheapa agus samhaltú digiteach go tástálacha ábhar, teorainneacha déantúsaíochta agus fréamhshamhlacha deiridh. Is é an aidhm atá leis ná a mhíniú conas is féidir le hoideachas deartha tacú le húsáid ábhar ciorclach agus le hathchóiriú sceireacha coiréil.

Press Kit
- Unique Properties
- LivingReef Exhibition is a public facing exhibition that documents and displays the outcomes of an international university initiative on sustainable design using Direct Ink Writing DIW 3D printing with circular materials. Instead of presenting only finished objects, the exhibition makes the full research and education workflow visible, from concept development and AI assisted modeling to material trials, fabrication constraints, iteration, and final prototypes.
- Dimensions & Packaging
- The exhibition includes small scale fired clay prototypes and large scale printed components made with recycled materials. Forms emphasize porosity, modularity, and self supporting geometry. Objects are displayed on museum grade plinths and enclosed cabinets. All components are designed for safe transport, installation, and public viewing within a gallery environment.

- Design Challenge
- The challenge was to convert a complex research program into an exhibition that is technically accurate, publicly accessible, and visually coherent. Circular materials behave unpredictably during printing, requiring repeated testing and geometry revision. The project also required integrating outcomes from multiple universities into one clear narrative while presenting both successes and failures as part of sustainable design learning.
- Research
- LivingReef is an international research and education initiative exploring sustainable design through DIW 3D printing, circular materials, and AI assisted workflows. The exhibition presents physical outcomes and process documentation from cross university workshops, showing how waste derived materials can be transformed into functional prototypes. The project highlights design education as a driver of circular economy practices and environmental awareness.
- Inspiration
- The exhibition is inspired by two parallel needs. First, coral reef systems are fragile and require new restoration approaches that can be locally adaptable. Second, higher education must respond to decarbonization and digital transformation by teaching designers to work with low waste processes and circular resources. LivingReef translates these needs into a tangible public narrative.
- Project Duration
- Project duration: 2025
Workshops: Fukuoka Japan and Tainan Taiwan
Exhibition dates: 2025 10 17 to 2025 10 20
Exhibition venue: NTNU Art Museum, Taipei, Taiwan - Operation Flow
- The exhibition guides visitors through a clear narrative flow: project background, cross university collaboration, digital modeling, material testing, fabrication challenges, and final outcomes. Interaction is educational and visual, using physical prototypes, process images, and concise labels. Visitors learn how sustainable design evolves through iteration, material limits, and collaboration.
