2 Introduction I. Fascination & Research Question II. Waterproof living III. Design of the 4 water resistant houses IIII. Conclusion

3 Fascination

4 Fascination Flood Hamburg 08

5 Occasion New spatial strategy for the Dutch delta: - Delta Committee II Samen werken met water

6 Occasion New spatial strategy for the Dutch delta: - Delta Committee II Samen werken met water - VROM Nationaal Programma Adaptie Ruimte en Klimaat en Ruimte voor de rivier Spatial design strategy changes from water-defensive to water- adaptive More water in new urban designs Multifunctional ground use Water- resistant living areas

7 Occasion New spatial strategy for the Dutch delta: - Delta Committee II Samen werken met water - VROM Nationaal Programma Adaptie Ruimte en Klimaat en Ruimte voor de rivier Spatial design strategy changes from water-defensive to water- adaptive More water in new urban designs Multifunctional ground use Water- resistant living areas - SEV (Stuurgroep Experimenten Volkshuisvesting) establish to create; more public support for multifunctional ground use water- resistant living improve the familiarity and the image of Waterliving

8 Occasion New spatial strategy for the Dutch delta Red = Buildings Blue = Water storage

9 Occasion New spatial strategy for the Dutch delta Red = Buildings Blue = Water storage

10 Occasion New spatial strategy for the Dutch delta Red = Buildings Blue = Water storage Dutch society and living quality: - public awareness of the climatological issues - the public support for adaptive solutions water storage in urban areas - with a good quality of living for the occupant - save and secure delta environment

11 Research Question Research Question: How can we create water-resistant livings in the different landscapes of the Netherlands when we have to deal with the climate change and water problematics of the Dutch delta? And how can we create a new architecture and life style with a good living-quality for all target groups? Design Goals for Water living: I. Architecture versus Dutch landscape II. Water living with a high living quality III. New lifestyle and architecture for different occupants

12 Waterproof living

13 Waterproof living Spatial development by Layer approach Foundation layer - Heaver rainfalls - Raising sea level - Increasing river discharges - More groundwater Networks layer - Innovative dykes - Space for water - Multifunctional ground use => Water-storage Occupation layer - water storage with nature - water storage with recreation - water storage with urban area => Water Living + Experience layer - high living quality - safe environment - water living- relation water/ nature

14 Waterproof living Dyke/ Bank Living Constant / safe Hillock / Terp Living Constant / safe Pile Living Changing / noticeable Amfibic living Floating living Change / experience Dry and Wet living Constant / safe Constant / experience Temporary living Constant / safe Changing / noticeable
