3 01 Floating Architecture 3

4 BACKGROUND Climate change sea level rising Social Change increase of population growth of claims Contradiction reduction of the land for residential settlements Contradiction higher demand for residential settlements 4

5 BACKGROUND Climate change and sea level rise Low-lying coastal areas are at risk of being completely submerged, disappearing under water. Construction ground is becoming increasingly limited. The maps show areas to be flooded with sea levels rising by 30 centimeters, 50 centimeters and one meter respectively, Mekong Delta, Vietnam- Photo: Courtesy of the 5Vietnam Academy for Water Resources 5

6 BACKGROUND Sustainable solution: not against the water but adapting to the water Source: R.Misdorp and H. van Reeken Floating buildings and structures 6

7 BACKGROUND Social change The shortage of the settlements due to a rapid growth of population The shortage of land resources for agricultural production and raw materials. The increased demand for high-quality residential accommodation. Source: Institute of Applied Plant Nutrition (IAPN) 7
