Solum is a spatial and landscaped installation that emphasizes the role of permeable soil in regulating the water cycle. The installation demonstrates how soil permeability enables infiltration, reduces surface runoff, and supports groundwater recharge. Spatial elements and planting configurations create visible pathways for water movement and retention. The design promotes awareness of sustainable stormwater strategies and the ecological functions of soils in urban and natural settings. Material choices and landscape form aim to balance aesthetics with hydrological performance. The project serves as a model for integrating permeability into site design to mitigate flooding and support resilient water management.
