Anthro-Reef explores how people can live alongside nature instead of taking from it, with corals as the medium.

Dead coral washed up on the shore is filtered, collected and processed into calcium carbonate. That becomes 3D-printing filament for an ever-expanding structure where new coral can grow, leading to a thriving reef.
