With the sea
level rising as a result of global warming, the low-lying Netherlands is
fighting back for more space by building communities on water.
Recognising the growing scarcity of building ground in the Netherlands, a
Dutch construction company has started building houses on water. The
houses, made of wood and lightweight aluminium, are linked to each other
by walkways but can be detached from the surrounding neighbourhood and
individually moved by tugboats.
