Urban Seascaping

Habitats

How do we build with nature?

In today's episode, we dive into a groundbreaking PhD project that has the potential to reshape the future of our coastal cities. Get ready as we introduce you to the revolutionary concept of "Urban Seascaping" (USS) in the age of the Anthropocene.

Our esteemed guest and the author of the PhD, Soo Jung Ryu, is a true pioneer in the field. She brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise, providing us with invaluable insights into the power of seaweed and marine ecosystems as agents of urban transformation. Her work reminds us of the importance of working with the agency of nature and developing innovative strategies to build with, rather than against, the forces of the natural world.

In this captivating episode, we explore the critical question posed by Soo Jung Ryu: "How can coastal cities integrate the sea and its lifeforms in a way that contributes to re-envisioning existing and new waterfront developments in the light of sea-level rise?" We delve into the transformative potential of seaweed to catalyze urban shoreline adaptation.

Prepare to be inspired by the concept of Urban Seascaping and how it promises to revolutionize our approach to coastal city planning.
