About us
Who we are
Our home base
Based in Delft, The Netherlands,
a centre of maritime innovation and engineering.
People have always been drawn to water.
It’s in our nature.
Floating markets, houseboats, villages on stilts:
living on water isn’t new.
We believe it’s time for the next chapter.
We can transform urban waterfronts into thriving places where people feel at home, no matter how the tides change.
Rooted in decades of Dutch maritime expertise, we engineer modular floating neighborhoods that bring lasting resilience to coastal communities.
Our values
How we work
Our modular City Blocks™ allow projects to start small and grow over time, based on demand. Begin with a single neighborhood, expand into a district, or scale up to a full city extension.
United by purpose
At the heart of every project are the people who will live, work, and connect there. We can only succeed with the right partners.
Bold, but grounded
We think big, but never lose sight of what’s practical. Every floating neighborhood is designed to be both unique and achievable.
Water is our partner
We don’t just build on water, we build with it. We aim to create places that respect and enhance the natural environment.
Endure and adapt
Our solution stands strong against storms and rising seas, while evolving with the changing needs of communities over time.

History
Research & Development
Backed by more than 10 years of research and development, SquareFloatingCity holds the key intellectual property enabling large-scale floating construction, scalable from vibrant neighborhoods to entire floating cities. Combined with long-term experience in governance and access to 20 years of R&D and practical experience in floating development, we have established ourselves as a transformative and unique global player in the world of floating opportunities.
Building on the project history of our sister companies Blue21 Consulting and Bluelands, we bring practical experience from Asia, Latin America, and Europe, and are currently active in new developments in the Netherlands and the Middle East.
