 The goal of our project is to design artificial marine habitats that can help endangered fish species and corals thrive again. Climate change and the warming of the oceans are disturbing marine ecosystems and damaging the natural balance of life underwater. Because of this, many species are losing safe places to live, hide, feed, and grow. Our design is therefore focused on supporting nature itself, especially fish, corals, and other marine organisms. The goal of our project is to design artificial marine habitats that can help endangered fish species and corals thrive again.

-From the beginning, we knew that the structure had to meet several important requirements. It had to be modular, so that different units could be combined and adapted depending on the location and the needs of the ecosystem. It also had to be made from a material that would not harm the marine environment. Since corals need to grow on the structure, the material had to be suitable for marine life and preferably porous. At the same time, the habitat could not be too large or too heavy, because that would make transport and installation difficultHowever, it still needed enough weight and stability to remain in place and resist sea currents.+From the beginning, we knew that the structure had to meet several important requirements.

At the same time, the habitat could not be excessively large or heavy, since this would complicate transport and installation. The design therefore had to balance practical deployment with sufficient weight and stability to remain in place and withstand sea currents.
  
-To develop our concept, we started with brainstorming sessions and research into similar existing projects. We looked at different types of artificial reefs and marine restoration systems, and we also studied which materials could safely be used in the sea. During this ideation phase, we created around six to seven different structural concepts. While the overall shapes of these concepts were quite similar, the main differences were in the materials and possible additional features such as sensors.+To develop the concept, the team started with brainstorming sessions and research into similar existing projects. Different types of artificial reefs and marine restoration systems were researched, and also which materials could safely be used in the sea were studied. During this ideation phase, the creation of around six to seven different structural concepts was crucial. While the overall shapes of these concepts were quite similar, the main differences were in the materials and possible additional features such as sensors.
  
-We explored several material options, including basalt fabric-reinforced structures, polymer-clay, bacterial HSC, ECOncrete, recycled glass, and Biorock. Each material had its own advantages and disadvantages. Some were more expensive, while others were less suitable for coral growth or did not provide the level of porosity needed by marine organisms. Since fish and corals benefit from rough and porous surfaces, this became an important factor in our decision-making process.+It was explored several material options, including basalt fabric-reinforced structures, polymer-clay, bacterial HSC, ECOncrete, recycled glass, and Biorock.

-After comparing the different options, we selected basalt fabric as the most suitable material for our design. This material offered a strong balance between cost, weight, stability, and ecological suitability.

It is not overly expensive, heavy enough to remain stable underwater, and easy to shape into modular forms. In addition, its porous surface makes it a good choice for encouraging coral growth and creating shelter for fish. The material can be formed by first making a mould in the desired shape and then placing the basalt fabric or mesh inside it. Depending on the required strength, the fabric can be arranged in one or several layers. Fine concrete or mortar is then poured, sprayed, or pressed around the reinforcement. After curing, the concrete becomes rigid while the basalt fabric remains embedded inside as reinforcement. For these reasons, basalt fabric-reinforced concrete was chosen as the best material for our final concept.

 +The final concept selected for MARIS HABITATS is a modular artificial marine habitat built from one repeated cone-shaped element. These modules can be connected side by side and stacked vertically, allowing the habitat to be expanded according to site conditions and ecological requirements. By using one repeated part, the system remains simple, scalable, and easy to reproduce, while still allowing a wide variety of structural arrangements.
 +
 +The concept was selected because it provides a strong balance between ecological function and practical feasibility. Different configurations of the same module can create both smaller and larger shelter spaces, making the habitat suitable for a wide range of marine species. This adaptability is one of the main strengths of the concept, since different deployment sites may require different structural densities and sizes.
 +
 +Another important aspect of the concept is the material choice. The habitat is intended to be made from basalt fabric-reinforced concrete, which combines structural weight and durability with a rough and porous surface suitable for marine colonisation. This surface can support the attachment and growth of algae, corals, and other marine organisms, while the weight of the material helps the structure remain stable under underwater currents.
 +
 +Compared to other design directions explored during the project, this concept proved to be the most suitable. Earlier ideas such as spherical, hexagonal, and dome-based structures were less effective because they were either not modular enough or too difficult to manufacture and combine efficiently. For this reason, the cone-based modular concept was defined as the final structural direction of the project.

 ==== 7.4 Design ==== ==== 7.4 Design ====
 === 7.4.1 Introduction === === 7.4.1 Introduction ===
-This section presents the development of the artificial marine habitat concept. The aim was to design structure that is both ecologically suitable for marine life and technically feasible to produce and deploy underwater. Throughout the design process, attention was given to stability, modularity, material choice, and the ability of the habitat to support a wide variety of species. +This section presents how the selected concept was developed into feasible structural solution for underwater deploymentThe design process focused on translating the general concept into a habitat that is modularmanufacturable, stable, and ecologically suitable for marine colonisation. The following subsections explain the main design decisions and the structural directions explored during the development process.
- +
-The concept was developed through sketchesdesign variations, and structural ideas that were gradually refined into a more practical and adaptable solution. The following subsections describe the design considerations and the structural concepts explored so far.+
 === 7.4.2 Design === === 7.4.2 Design ===
-The design phase focused on creating habitat that could function as a safe and supportive environment for marine organismsSeveral key requirements were identified from the beginning. The structure must be heavy enough to remain stable underwaterwith anchoring to the seabed if necessaryIt should also be modular, so that it can be expanded and adapted over time depending on the needs of the site.+The design phase focused on transforming the selected concept into structure that could function in an underwater environment while remaining feasible to produce and deployFrom the beginning, the most important design requirement was modularityThe habitat had to be based on one repeatable element that could be combined in multiple ways without becoming too complex to manufacture or assemble. This requirement guided the entire design process and strongly influenced the selection of the final form.
  
-Another important design aspect is the materialThe habitat should be made from material that allows algae and other marine organisms to attach and grow easilyFor this reason, a rough surface is importantIn addition, the design should include openings of different sizestogether with indentations and protrusions, so that both small and large species can find shelter. Height is also an important factor, as it helps create more natural, cliff-like underwater environment.+Several structural directions were explored during this phase, including spherical, hexagonal, and dome-like concepts. Although these ideas offered interesting spatial qualities, they were gradually rejected because they did not satisfy the design goals strongly enoughSome concepts were too difficult to produce in simple and repeatable way, while others did not provide the level of modularity needed to expand the habitat efficientlyIn contrastthe cone-based element provided clearer and more practical solutionBecause the same unit can be repeated throughout the structurethe habitat can grow both horizontally and vertically while maintaining simple and consistent construction logic.
  
-During this stage, the work included initial structural drafts, material selection, detailed drawings, a 3D model with load and stress analysis, and a colour paletteThese elements helped guide the development of the habitat concept into a more realistic and applicable design. +The chosen design also supports ecological performance. By connecting and stacking the modules in different arrangementsthe habitat can generate openings and sheltered spaces of different sizesThis is important because smaller and larger marine organisms require different types of refuge. The repeated units also create a more complex three-dimensional environment, which improves habitat quality and increases the suitability of the structure for fish, algae, corals, and other marine species.

 +Material selection was another important part of the design phase. The final design is based on basalt fabric-reinforced concrete, chosen for its combination of strength, weight, and ecological suitability. The material is heavy enough to improve stability under underwater currents, while its rough and porous surface can encourage biological growth over time. In this way, the design responds not only to structural and manufacturing requirements, but also to the biological purpose of the habitat.
  
 +Overall, the design phase transformed the initial concept into a clear and buildable solution. Instead of developing a complex habitat composed of many different parts, the design process focused on a single repeated module capable of generating a wide range of spatial configurations. This decision improved the scalability, manufacturability, and ecological potential of the habitat, and formed the basis for the structural development presented in the following subsection.
 +=== 7.4.3 Structure ===
  
  
-The structural development of the habitat started with initial sketches and concept ideas. At this stage, attention was given to material selection, detailed drawings, 3D modelling with load and stress analysis, and the overall appearance of the structureThe images shown are illustrative examples of the concept. +The structural development of the habitat began with a series of exploratory conceptsThese early ideas were useful for identifying the design characteristics that were most important for the projectsuch as modularityease of productionstructural repetitionand the creation of different shelter sizes. The figures below illustrate the main structural directions considered during this process. Figure {{ref>fig:iglo}} shows an initial idea.
- +
-Several important structural requirements were identified. The habitat must be heavy enough to remain stable underwater andif neededbe anchored to the seabed. It should also be modular, so it can be expanded over time. The material must support the growth of algae and other marine organismswhich is why a rough surface is important. In addition, the structure should include openings of different sizes, as well as indentations and protrusions, to provide shelter for different speciesHeight is also important, as it helps mimic a cliff-like environment (see Figure {{ref>fig:iglo}} for illustration).+

-Another concept is a hexagonal module supported by six pillars, which lift the structure above the seabed and avoid fully blocking the movement of species living close to it. On top of the pillars lies a hexagonal base with surfaces designed to encourage the growth of marine vegetation and other organisms. 
  
-The edges of the module are serrated so that multiple units can connect securely, like puzzle pieceswithout horizontal displacement. This creates a stable and adaptable modular system that can be expanded depending on the siteThe design also allows openings of different sizesproviding shelter for both small and large fish species.+One of the first directions explored was a more enclosed structureshown in the early sketch above. This concept helped define the importance of shelter, internal space, and protection for marine species. However, although it offered enclosed refuge areas, it was not considered the most suitable direction because it did not provide the same level of modular flexibility as later conceptsAs the design process continuedgreater importance was given to repeatability and scalability.

-Other structural ideas were also considered, although they have not yet been implemented. One idea was to vary the size of the arches formed by the pillars in order to accommodate different species, while some sides could be made into full walls to create more enclosed shelter spacesAnother proposal was to include a larger base element that could serve as both connection point for the modules and an anchoring system to improve stability against currents and waves. +A second concept was based on a hexagonal module supported by pillars. This idea introduced a stronger modular logic and allowed several units to be connected into a larger structureThe concept was relevant because it explored how repeated modules could create more adaptable habitat system. It also supported the study of elevated structures and the possibility of generating openings of different sizes. Howeverthis direction was not selected as the final solution because the cone-based concept provided a simpler repeated form and clearer scalability (see Figure {{ref>fig:pillars}}).
- +
-A first variation of this concept used larger and smaller pillar-based units to create openings of different sizes. These elements could be stackedfitted into one another, or placed flat on the seabed, making the system flexible and adaptable. (See Figure {{ref>fig:pillars}}).+

-After further research, another structural concept was developed that may be taken forward. This design is modular, allowing the elements to be stacked and connected in different ways depending on the site. As a result, the structure can create both larger and smaller openings and can be extended vertically and horizontally. +Further structural exploration focused on varying the dimensions and arrangement of the elements in order to create openings suitable for different marine speciesThis stage was important because it highlighted the ecological value of structural diversity. By studying how repeated parts could generate different internal spaces, the development process produced a clearer understanding of how geometry could influence habitat qualityThese studies confirmed that the final design should allow variation in shelter size while still remaining based on one simple repeated part (see Figure {{ref>fig:modular_structure}} and Figure {{ref>fig:structure}}).
- +
-One of the main advantages of this concept is its flexibility. It can cover a large area of the seabed and create a more complex habitat for fish, corals, algae, and other marine organismsBy changing the arrangement of the modules, the structure can provide shelter and living space for both small and large species. +
- +
-Another advantage is that the design is relatively easy to manufacture. Its simple modular form makes it suitable for construction in concrete and other possible materials for the final habitat. (See Figure {{ref>fig:modular_structure}} and Figure {{ref>fig:structure}}).+

 +After comparing the different structural directions, a concept based on one repeated cone-shaped module was selected. This solution was considered the most appropriate because it combines modularity, manufacturability, and ecological functionality. The same unit can be repeated many times, allowing the structure to expand horizontally and vertically while maintaining a simple construction logic. In addition, the arrangement of these modules creates a more complex habitat geometry with multiple shelter opportunities for marine organisms.

 +When several modules are combined, the habitat can cover a larger area of the seabed and create a more complex three-dimensional structure. This makes the system adaptable to different sites and allows the scale of the habitat to be adjusted according to the intended application. For this reason, the final structure is not defined by a single fixed form, but by a repeatable modular logic that can be expanded according to ecological and practical needs.

 Throughout this project, we explored various approaches to data collection. Initially, Version 1 was developed, while this version enabled continuous data communication, it proved to be highly complex and more prone to potential failures. Based on these findings, Version 2 was selected as the preferred because it prioritises robustness, reduced complexity, and ease of deployment, while accepting compromises regarding limited operational duration and the lack of continuous data communication. Throughout this project, we explored various approaches to data collection.
