Item type:Publication, The designing of 3D-printed modular artificial reefs through design thinking framework: a case study in Koh Khai, Chumphon Province, Thailand(2025-12-01)Limlunjakorn, TorpongCoral reefs degradation in Thailand demands scalable, community-accessible restoration solutions. This study addresses the limitations of conventional artificial reefs by developing 3D-printed modular artificial reefs (3DMARs) optimized for ecological performance, usability, and low-resource deployment. Formulated through the lens of design expertise and applying a design thinking framework, the research integrates qualitative content analysis, interdisciplinary collaboration, and user-centered design to establish key criteria, including modularity, flexibility, and environmental sustainability. Prototypes were co-developed with SCG Co., Ltd. Field deployment at Koh Khai, Chumphon Province, demonstrated ease of transport, manual installation, and ecological compatibility. Initial observations suggest that the system enhances coral habitat complexity while promoting local engagement. The study presents a replicable and adaptable model for decentralized reef restoration, supporting sustainable marine efforts in regions with limited technical capacity, such as Thailand and similar Southeast Asian coastal areas. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Exploring the Use of Idealistic Concepts and Symbolic Interpretation to Enhance the Urban Context for People with Disabilities in an InstallationArt Exhibition of Urban ThisAbility(2024-01-01) ;Limlunjakorn, TorpongChowvanayotin, PornrakThis article explores the design approach of the art installation titled "Urban ThisAbility" which received funding from Bangkok Design Week 2023 and created by artists Torpong Limlunjakorn, Pornrak Chowvanayotin and Arnun Chantan. This project aims to raise awareness about ideal urban environments that accommodate people with disabilities. The artworks are created within the constraints of the installation venue to effectively convey this message. It also explores the cognitive processes involved in creating spatial and symbolic interpretations using grid concepts reflective elements and luminous emitting drawing from relevant literature. The art installation was crafted through a comprehensive process to foster contemporary artistic awareness. The "Urban ThisAbility" project garnered positive feedback for its artistic merits and successful dissemination of awareness about urban mobility challenges for people with disabilities. Additionally, the responses from individuals with disabilities towards this work were insightful. This article seeks to be a valuable resource for students and enthusiasts of installation art and symbolic interpretation providing a foundation for future studies in this field.
