My architectural intervention is designed to improve water quality and reduce algae growth through the use of subsurface aeration systems integrated into a floating structure. These systems introduce oxygen into the water, helping to restore ecological balance and limit harmful algae production.

The project includes research centers focused on monitoring and advancing these remediation strategies. A shading system is incorporated into the design to visually map the location of the aeration pipes, creating a direct connection between the architecture and the environmental systems below.

The recreational program features spaces for kayaking and fishing, along with areas for dining, relaxation, and observation. Dedicated viewing surfaces allow users to engage with the underwater environment, making visible the aeration process and the development of fish habitats.
