KindDesigns was founded to protect Miami’s coastlines by
combating the destructive flooding and degrading marine habitats happening in
our home state. We put together a team of engineers, designers, researchers,
and materials experts to develop sustainable, cost-effective solutions that
could be scaled to all coastal cities. Our flagship product, Living Seawalls™,
tackles the challenges posed by rising sea levels while healing damaged
ecosystems. Today, our product suite has expanded to include Kind Tiles™,
Artificial Reefs, and much more. Regardless of the product, everything we do is
driven by our unwavering commitment to create resilient communities.
Our Living Seawalls™ combine the
structural integrity of traditional seawalls with the ecological benefits of
artificial reefs. With advanced 3D-printing technology, KindDesigns produces
beautiful, custom panels 20x faster than traditional seawall construction
methods.
How it Works
·
01. Design
Our team
will schedule a site visit for new projects, or we can review permitted plans
for active seawall projects. For all projects we then design custom slabs to meet
your exact project needs.
·
02. Production
Our
seawall production is the fastest in the world. We 3D print a concrete seawall
panel in 60 minutes! For large orders our mobile robots can print on-site.
·
03. Installation
Finally,
we will collaborate with a local marine contractor to install your Living Seawall™. Panels can be installed with
tie-back or piles, just like precast concrete seawalls.
Kind
Tiles™ can be added to any existing
seawall (concrete, steel, or vinyl) to function in the same way our Living
Seawalls™ do — enhancing species colonization, dissipating wave energy, and
improving quality of water through sea life attachment. The aesthetics of your
home doesn’t need to stop at your backyard. Custom Kind Tiles™ create cohesion
between the design of your home and your seawall.
How it Works
·
01. Design
Choose a Kind Tile™ from our portfolio, or create
something custom! We will work with you to decide the number of tiles needed
based on site conditions and desired aesthetic.
·
02. Production
Using our
EPD certified cementitious mix, we craft beautiful, eco-friendly Kind Tiles™. We will match our production
timeline to align with your project schedule.
·
03. Installation
We
collaborate with local marine contractors to install your tiles. Installation
method is dependent on the type of seawall Kind Tiles™ are affixed to.
Living
Shorelines incorporate green and grey
infrastructure to protect shorelines and communities, while supporting enhanced
coastal biodiversity. KindDesigns’ living shoreline solutions complement
natural systems, multiplying the benefits of natural and structural coastal
protection.

Mangrove Planters
KindDesigns Mangrove Planters offer an
innovative solution for coastal property owners, allowing you to enjoy the
ecological benefits of mangroves without sacrificing your waterfront views.
These versatile planters can be mounted on seawalls, placed in
water, or positioned upland, featuring rugose surfaces and eco-friendly
materials that support both mangroves and marine life.
·
Artificial Reefs
Our 3D-printed artificial reefs represent the cutting edge of
marine habitat restoration. With an unprecedented half-inch layer size, our
printers create intricate, tailored structures that push the boundaries of reef
design.
Combining artificial reef science with artistic vision, our
in-house team crafts ecologically beneficial habitats that double as underwater
sculpture parks. These unique reefs not only support local marine life but also
serve as captivating attractions for divers and ocean enthusiasts.
