Design_Objective: We look into the concept of multi-scale material system that can arrange themselves from the microscopic organizational scales by embedding its geometrical and temporal performance up to the territorial operational scales in which every decision taken in the smaller operational scales informs its behavior. The design proposal that is being implemented adapts itself to the surrounding environment by changing its physical state as it comes in contact with the metamorphic forces of water. By interacting with the tidal changes, the system is able to regulate the movement and speed of the water as well as the sediment deposition. The system is able to archive so through the permeability and porosity of the structure generating controlled water conditions. Depending on these variable conditions the system changes its physical state according to the environmental forces that are present in a given moment and location. With this the research proposes a change on the paradigm on which the human being adapts the environment to better cater his needs but with this disrupting the environment in which he situates its settlements, by stablishing a project that utilizes local forces and materials to its advantage without breaking the local ecosystem interaction. To do so the design researches into the use of material that comes from within the site and with time transforms back into the landscape from which it was extracted in that way breaking the way we currently built by moving materials from one location into another.

Research Cluster RC15 Cross-Scale Design: The Amphibious Laboratory References In recent years we have seen how global warming has changed the intensity of climate. It has been demonstrated that climatic events like hurricanes have intensified and increased in occurrence over the years. 14
Research Cluster RC15 Cross-Scale Design: The Amphibious Laboratory References
In this way, our relationship with water has changed. The way we design cities is in odds with the force of the water and our current cities haven’t been able to adapt to the changes on climate and to the catastrophic effects of it. 15

In some places around the world the effect is cyclical as the sea level rises and falls every 6 hours. In the world the place where this phenomenon is more pronounce is in the Bay of Fundy in Canada.

In the coastline of the Bay of Fundy the tidal changes can be up to 16 meters between the high and low tides, causing the entire landscape to change for a matter of hours. But as can be seen the infrastructure does not adapt to the changes.
21
Research Cluster RC15 Cross-Scale Design: The Amphibious Laboratory References This recurrent phenomenon affects the landscape not only temporally but also leaving a permanent mark as the subtractive forces of water come into contract with the rock formations creating silhouettes that are a result of this interaction.

This type of constituent indicates a minor change in density and behavior from A1. The purpose is to increase the density with the minor change to see how it reacts with the fluid.
In A3, where the filament is three times denser than A1, it generates a unique form that includes 10 constituents within itself. The objective of the design solution in A3 is to enable direct control of wave energy, which in turn is able to split the water force into two directions.
A4 and A5 are comparable in terms of behaviour and density, where the behaviour of both is to increase the velocity from water forces to expand sedimentation flow.
A5 contains 15 constituents with filament and 3 solid constituents. The aim is to expand the sedimentation into multiple direction by interacting with all filaments inside and outside.

The solid and peameability parts of structure generates balance in between floatable and sinkable position.

The Simulation illustrates the behaviour of structures that can change the state by interacting with water force. As the figures shows from state 1 to state 24, when the structure of 70% density started to infuence with water energy, its started to enlarge into another state. The transformation also effect to the change of water direction and turbulence. As an example in state 15 and 24, it shows that the water turbulence had changed from high velocity to low velocity in state 24, because in state 18 has more spaces to allow the fluid passed through.

In Scenario 1 design contribution shows how the agglomeration process had been designed as a high-density platform that could generate more space along the coast. The purpose of this function is to increase the protection rate from catastrophic events that could impact the coast such as landslides, hurricanes, flooding, and tsunamis. However, high density platform has a limited space for aquacultural activities and a variety of fish species.
The first scenario serves to prevent natural disasters, but as the first state interacts with environmental forces, the state will change into the second scenario. The first prediction result (Figure 16) decreases the problem of wave energy, which can damage fishery supplies. On the other hand, water circulation may not flow efficiently due to density of environment, which will limit marine life habitats.

Research Cluster RC15 Cross-Scale Design: The Amphibious Laboratory
When the environmental forces began impacting on the structures, the structures started expanding offshore. In this scenario, as shown in Figure 14, the adaptation of environmental forces changed the pattern to increase offshore farming and productivity, but decreased the protection rate to catastrophic events. Additionally, this regulation in this state (Figure 14) can change its state back and forth, through changes occurring over time.
The second scenario is therefore a tool for increasing the marine life habitat, through the use of a large platform. However, when a state change can be effected in time through the impact of environmental forces. When the structures began to change state into a disassembled platform, the area became more permeable and allowed more hydrological access into the area.

We observed in the comparison between Scenario 1 and Scenario 2, marine life species increased as a result of the disassembled action that spread the habitat into an off-shore zone. Although this does not benefit the individual purpose for increasing space, it can support more fish species, ranging from small types to more abundant species. By interacted with the environmental forces as long period, it generates the larger platform with transport connection that allow to increase shipping activity in the area.
The third scenario implements a flexible platform that focuses on balancing marine habitats and regulating the wave energy in the possible areas of the landscape.

According to Scenario 4, when the structures reached their final state of expansion, there was an increase and balance in marine life habitats in response to the surrounding territory. As shown the percentage of large fish habitats was 20% in scenario one; however, in the final state, at scenario four, the percentage of large fish habitat had increased to 50%. Marine mammals also increased to 40%, due to the enlargement in space that provided better accessibility.
The final state can be disassembled by environmental influences; however, when the weather changes, the platform can transform into the original or first state, depending on the situation at hand.

TIDAL WHARF has explored a fundamental understanding of design behaviour that interacts with environmental forces. The behaviour of a building’s environment can be considered alongside external forces, state of change in material, flow direction, and deposition. An alternative approach of this roject research is to investigate the time schemes of a building environment that could change through time with different scnarios or functions (such as, shipping port, marine life habitat, and natural disaster prevention for the coastal.

TIDAL WHARF project explored a fundamental understanding of design behaviour that interacts with environmental forces. The behaviour of a building’s environment can be considered alongside external forces, state of change in material, flow direction, and deposition. However, an alternative approach of this thesis research is to investigate the time schemes of a building environment, because the project may require an extended duration to complete it development. Time schemes can potentially illustrate tidal phenomena at different times through the use of physics calculations, and determine how wave energy is distributed within the intertidal zone.
