An area of London that is prone to flooding, yet it essential to the expansion of the city.
The brief was to provide a solution that deals with the problems of the site without making them worse. The solution was not to defend against the flooding problem of the site, but to use it. Allowing the site to flood twice daily allows for an aquatic based community to be constructed around manufactured islands that use the local materials available and re-use the waste that has accumulated on the site over many years of neglect.
