About
Dominic Lim Co is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of architecture, marine ecology, and digital fabrication. His work focuses on developing innovative artificial reef structures using robotic 3D clay printing to support coral restoration. Co’s most notable contribution, the “Reformative Coral Habitats” project, emerged in response to the devastating impact of Typhoon Mangkhut, which destroyed approximately 80% of Hong Kong’s coral in 2018. Collaborating with marine biologists, he designed performative, clay-based structures tailored to aid new coral growth in local waters. His 2020 paper on this method, which has garnered 8 citations, demonstrates a novel approach that merges ecological sensitivity with advanced manufacturing techniques. Co’s research rethinks traditional artificial reefs by emphasizing material biocompatibility and geometric complexity, offering a scalable solution for degraded marine environments. His work stands out for its interdisciplinary rigor and real-world application, positioning him as a key figure in eco-architectural innovation.
