It attempts to describe the futuristic proposal of constructing on water due to scarcity of land and decreasing of lands due to global warming issues and the resulted sea level rise, also the consequences of making artificial (man-made) islands that are in direct connection to Bahrain Island. This report briefly examines the theoretical roots of the proposal including basic criteria and architectural aspects of structure within water body that could satisfy the human needs.展开更多
文摘Abstract: This paper highlights the idea of constructing a building or group of buildings partially in the water. It attempts to describe the futuristic proposal of constructing on water due to scarcity of land and decreasing of lands due to global warming issues and the resulted sea level rise, also the consequences of making artificial (man-made) islands that are in direct connection to Bahrain Island. This report briefly examines the theoretical roots of the proposal including basic criteria and architectural aspects of structure within water body that could satisfy the human needs.
