It may feel hard or even impossible to move forward into your new beginning, but it'll feel just as hard or impossible to stay where you know you're not meant to be.

Those who present directly and immediately the new forms and symbols are the artists — the dramatists, the musicians, the painters, the dancers, the poets, and those poets of the religious sphere we call saints. They portray the new symbols in the form of images — poetic, aural, plastic, or dramatic, as the case may be. They live out their imaginations.

— Rollo May

A New Creation in Christ

Therefore if anyone is in Christ [that is, grafted in, joined to Him by faith in Him as Savior], he is a new creature [reborn and renewed by the Holy Spirit]; the old things [the previous moral and spiritual condition] have passed away. Behold, new things have come [because spiritual awakening brings a new life]. — 2 Corinthians 5:17 | Amplified Bible (AMP) Amplified Bible Copyright © 2015 by The Lockman Foundation.

Floating city is an enigmatic solution to modern architecture: an analysis

The word “floating city” has been used for several centuries , from the chinampas of the Aztec Empire to the canal city of Amsterdam (1). The concept of a floating utopia on water isn’t inconceivable. Architects are usually familiar with the term Amphibious Architecture, hence floating cities aren’t too far for the human settlement. Settlement constructed on a huge waterbody for the benefit of ecosystem and survival of humanity can be termed as floating city, thus increasing the chances of the idea of sustainable urban, ocean-based communities with an aim to grow, adapt and transform over time.

Recently due to threat of climate change and the introduction of new technology a lot of stress has fallen over manmade civilization on land, hence to reduce such problems architects and other UN dignitaries have come up with the concept of floating cities.(1)

The prospect of floating city is much beneficial to human civilisation as they will be protected from environmental disaster such as Tsunamis, floods, tornados etc. They would be resilient to climate changes such as rise of water level causing flood as they will be inclusive of buoyant designs. They will also have lower carbon emissions as it will be using renewable sources such as solar, tidal, hydro and wind power. These cities will also be banning the usage of high carbon emitted cars and waste trucks carrying them in turn they will be using pneumatic trash tubes which would transport trash to a sorting facility, where they would be recycled or repurposed (1).

On April 2019, the UN-Habitat discussed the possibility of using floating cities to reduce the damages associated to climate change. The Oceanix floating city in South Korea is a project that is helping coastal cities that are threatened by sea levels. The floating city intended to house people whose existing communities are most susceptible to the threat of rising seas. The proposed city would not only be built on water but would also have a harmonious relationship with it. It is designed from scratch to be climate-neutral and completely sustainable. It is the world’s first sustainable floating city prototype. It is made of hexagonal platforms to provide more space for communities in coastal areas. The Oceanix project aims to create these cities, which are designed to float through the water about a mile away from a coastal city (1).

The lift house, Dhaka Bangladesh, by Prosun architect is a project where amphibious architecture has been used hence the practice of proposing site on water has been continuing for ages but rather than holding back the land from sea some new generations architects have proposed the idea of embracing the sea with its own benefits and to incorporate it as a resource for the betterment of this hungry, polluted, and apocalyptic environment

While the concept of floating cities have yet to be implemented in reality, one might come across certain challenges while building it like the whole idea is based on the fact that people migrate to these cities to avoid overcrowding in the land but this can also encourage the idea of overpopulation rather than minimizing it as it might become a coping mechanism of human being to again exploit the ocean. Another important challenge one might face while building a floating city is the huge costing required to build it. A city on a scale on a larger scale that should have sewage, transport, agricultural and other necessary factors. To implement this on a city while maintaining it’s low weight and buoyancy and other physical component one might need high end products which can be highly expensive. Even the usage of prefabricated materials in The Oceanix while implementing it costed a lot too. The most recent assessment of the project, which occurred in 2013, concluded that a small floating city for up to 300 residents could cost as much as $167 million as mentioned in the 2017 interview (1). Lastly floating cities are being built to be climate conscious, but one might forget the dent it is making in the huge marine life beneath it. With the increase in pollution with it, one can only imagine the atrocities it might cause to the underwater flora and fauna in the subsequent decades.

For keeping the settlements afloat, architects would use large pontoon structures filled with air to provide buoyancy to the platforms, mooring piles must be designed to adequately and safely resist all lateral loads resulting from the most adverse combination of loads which are likely to act on the flotation superstructure of the floating building and any vessel attached to the floating building or mooring piles (2). These platforms would be hexagonal, as it’s considered the most space-efficient architectural shape. The city would not be floating freely , but would be secured with the seafloor and anchored off the coast of a major city on the mainland. Ideally, these floating cities would eventually make up a circular network of communities which in turn would harness natural resources to provide the necessary socio-economic communications.

If such a city is ever to be realized in the near future, with the given scenario it might highly boost people’s moral for the people residing currently in the overcrowded coastal cities. It could also act as a refugee area by saving people from the traumatic experience of loosing homes due to environmental crisis. But as we know every good opportunity has a flip side to it. While the idea might give human civilization a boost in their wellbeing , it might also encourage over population with no repercussions.

Hence, whatever may the consequence be for the concept of floating cities, the ideas of it existing aren’t that farfetched anymore. With the rise in climatic problems sooner or later mankind needs to adapt with the ongoing global crisis and this seems like a good opportunity to follow through as it might keep the consequential damage to a minimum while providing for a greater futuristic settlement to live in.
