Seagrass meadows are twice as efficient as forests at capturing and storing carbon, but over the last two decades they have been disappearing due to human activities. We take a nature-centered design approach using contextual inquiry and iterative participatory designs methods to consolidate knowledge from the marine and material sciences to industrial design. The sketches and renders documented evolved into the design and fabrication guidelines. This pictorial documents a dialogue between designers and scientists to design an ecological intervention using digital fabrication to manufacture morphing ceramics for seagrass meadow restoration.
