summary |
Despite having the potential of being a durable building material, Biorock, a form of calcium carbonate formed by the electro-accumulation of minerals dissolved in seawater, has never been applied on an architectural level due to its slow accretion process. This paper aims to plays out the possible narrative of this slow accruing material process in the incrementally submerged coastline of Jakarta, to empower local marginalized communities to self-construct a new city for habitation using Biorock, especially where building material resources may be limited. Urban cores with basic communal, housing and aquaculture facilities will be established using Biorock as the main building structure, which would be harvested in response to the gradual sea level rise. |
