-The structural morphology of the project is derived from diatoms, a major group of algae. They exist as unicellular organisms, but often form colonies. The global and local articulation of their unique cell wall made of silica (hydrated silicon dioxide) is the main point of reference here.
-'''Global Geometry'''
-Diatom frustules are often dome-like or rounded to form structures of minimal weight and material usage that handle compression loads of fluid pressure and point-compression loads of predators efficiently.
-Individual cells connect to form colonies with 'wrench-shaped, overlapping, interlocking spines' that can slide over each other to form linear and curvilinear global configurations.
-'''Local Geometry'''
-Inspite of being constituted of an extremely brittle material, silica, because of their formal articulation these cell walls exhibit exceptional mechanical strength. Each 'panel' in the frustule has complex hierarchical organization of layers with varying pore sizes. The central layer is often hexagonal, given the high compression resistance with minimal weight of honeycomb like structures.
-'''Material'''
-Given the above discussion, a component system of a 'compressive' material like glass reinforced concerete may be apt. It may also help minimize problems that metals pose in underwater constructions. Research is being conducted on such bio-materials. For the purpose of immediate realization, however, a combination of Carbon fibre, PTFE and glass may be opted for.
