>> About the project

曼谷大都市圈的快速城市发展及虾场和其他水产养殖业的大规模扩张导致泰国湾北部海岸线的红树林遭到破坏。马森提出了另一种发展模式设计，设想在一片茂盛的红树林中，提供一个对人类和自然都有利的设施环境来避免继续遭破坏。作为城市基础设施的一部分，它还可以为城市居民提供娱乐功能，通过将红树林向海岸迁移，实现自然修复的目标，最终成为“社区森林”。在狭窄的1.5公里长的场地内，马森提出探索自然的新路线，并在森林和边境沿线设置了娱乐设施，这些设施同红树林修复设施都位于海岸线附近，并将由邻近的居民运营。

The rapid urban development of the Bangkok Metropolitan Region along with massive expansion of shrimp farms and other aquaculture led to destruction of the mangrove forests along the Gulf of Thailand northern shoreline. In his proposal, Nathan provides an alternative development model, in which he envisions a productive mangrove that avoids encroachment by providing an environment that is mutually beneficial to people and nature. As part of the urban infrastructure, it has recreational uses for urban dwellers, while becoming a type of community forest by enabling the mangrove to migrate up shore and enhancing the aim to rehabilitate nature. New routes to explore nature are proposed within the narrow 1.5-kilometer-long site, together with recreational facilities inserted in the forest and along the border, which will be operated by neighboring local residents, with mangrove rehabilitation facilities sited near the shoreline.
