Units are built off site and floated/craned into position. Once in place all that is needed is for them to be connected to services and they are ready for occupation.

There are a number of opportunities that arise from planning for flood risk. By making space for water we create the potential for great new landscapes, open amenity spaces and wildlife habitats. Designing for flood risk also puts into sharp relief the need for more responsible sustainable development, with an explicit and embedded aim of reducing the potential effects of climate change.

The potential effect of flood risk on land value and the notion of shorter timescales with its potential effect on ownership arrangements open up the intriguing possibility of lower cost accommodation.

Self sufficient, sustainable developments designed for a 25 to 50 year life would encourage new and potentially very exciting architectural and urban design responses to emerge.
