Teosest Boat Biologs Ujuva Parveaedade Bioremediation

Koostöös Londoni paadikogukonnaga loodi need biopuhastavad ujuvaiad ehitada ja paigaldada paadielanikele, kasutades ligipääsetavaid ja kohalikke materjale, et võidelda kanalite veereostusega. Stimuleerides paadisõitjaid lubadusega luua privaatne ujuv aed, määrab see kogukonnapõhine üleskutse automaatselt veereostuse allika strateegia ja sihikule ning muudab selle lahenduseks. See parandab ühiselt selle ühise veeökosüsteemi kvaliteeti, soodustades samal ajal kohalike taimede, putukate ja lindude kasvu.

Unikaalsed omadused
Bioremediating floating gardens designed to be installed on boats created in collaboration with the London boat community addressing the rising water pollution of the canals in the United Kingdom.
Boat BioLogs are tools converting boats, a rising source of canal water pollution, into the solution to the problem. Incentivising boaters with the luxury of a private garden motivates them to install it and inspires dialogue in celebration of nature's self-healing properties.

Tootmistehnoloogia
D I Y strategy makes the gardens adaptable and affordable, so it aligns with the boater’s self-sufficient lifestyle. These urban gardens use biodegradable, long-lasting, rust and corrosion resistant materials that do not react to sunlight (or if they do, are well-insulated). Parts can be locally sourced:
Coconut Coir
H D P E semi-flexible pipe
Marine Grade Stainless Steel
H D P E mesh
Locally sourced soil
Native plants
The biofilm growing on the roots breaks down some pollutants and the plant absorbs the rest.
Disainiülesanne
Hyperaccumulating plants, although native, may become invasive.By consulting with bioremediation experts, secondary research,many iterations I identified safe planting method: plant between 2 pipes (that help with flotation) ensuring growth within the space.
Sourcing parts from local hardware stores/ nurseries, an accessible/ affordable building method (user’s perspective) was implemented.
Space being a huge constraint for boat residents, I utilised dead space to design the garden like a fender.

Inspiratsioon
Plants, considered as biopollutants, adapt to the Anthropocene age and fight pollution. They break down/ absorb pollutants in our shared ecosystems, create a fast-growing biomass and be utilised for compost, research and fields like phytomining, i.e., fighting pollution with biopollution.
I was also inspired by my audience - their tightly-knit community and their nomadic and self-sufficient lifestyle.
Projekti kestus
This is my master's final year project that started in December 2020 and ended in June 2021 in London, mainly focused in Camden (Local boat community), and was exhibited in M A Material Futures 2021 Exhibition, Kings Cross, London (June 2021) and published in the M A M F 2021 Catalogue. It was also shortlisted in the Global Graduate Showcase by Gucci in the Sustainable Design Category
Tööprotsess
The user scans a Q R code seen on an already installed garden which downloads the app. The app details instructions on why it is important, a ‘how to make’ video, materials needed, plants to use, care instructions and so on. The user buys materials from local hardware stores/ nurseries and builds the garden. Along with the plants, they also install the Q R code.
This way, the community spreads awareness about the product to collectively improve the quality of canal water pollution.
