Float

Our float design aims to enhance both the Salt Marsh Ecosystem and the Mussel Reef Ecosystem to foster biodiversity and improve water quality.

By supporting Spartina grass above water and mussels below, we provide food and habitat for a variety of species while filtering pollutants like heavy metals.  The materials — bamboo and waxed eco-ropes — are sustainable and durable, forming a platform that offers diverse habitats for marine life.

This design not only supports marine ecosystems but also helps mitigate storm surges, contributing to the RETI Center’s mission of innovative waterfront resilience through the Blue City Project.
