How it works
Discover how we transform unused urban waterfronts into resilient floating neighborhoods.
One average CityBlock* creates space for:
* The numbers displayed here are based on our average, residential CityBlock: a 60 m platform, four-story courtyard building. The actual numbers can vary widely depending on the projects’ choices – such as platform size, building height, and type or function of real estate.
Low-rise, high-quality architecture
Pedestrian-first planning
Shared green courtyards
People-centered design
Every detail starts with people: low-rise, high-quality architecture, shared green courtyards, and walkable streets. Surrounded by water, residents enjoy cooler summers, calming views, and a healthier connection to nature.
Space for utilities, i.e. drinking water production, wastewater treatment
Space for installations, i.e. seawater battery, energy converter
Integrated mobility hub
Smart, integrated utilities
Our neighborhoods rise and fall naturally with the water. They can be protected with a seamlessly connecting wave breaking system, also safeguarding the land behind, and is designed to host smart, integrated utilities: including water storage, clean water systems, advanced wastewater treatment, and integrated mobility hubs or community spaces. The result: a safe, future-proof living environment that works with nature, not against it.
Responsible site selection, avoiding sensitive habitats
Nature positive design – build to coexist with underwater ecosystems
Habitat for mussels, fish & aquatic plants
Built for a sustainable future
Our platforms not only provide space for people, but also for marine life. Designed to have a positive impact on water quality, they hold the potential to create new habitats for mussels, fish and aquatic plants – turning every neighborhood into a vibrant ecosystem above and below the surface.
Modular system
Start small, expand later.
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.
SFC®Neighborhood
A small, vibrant community on a single floating city block. Ideal for around 110 residents, with all essentials in reach.
SFC®District
A larger floating neighborhood that expands your waterfront with more homes, shared spaces, and amenities.
SFC®City
A complete, connected network of multiple floating blocks. Scalable, climate-resilient living for a large and diverse community.
Suitable locations
Where floating cities can thrive
Transforming port areas
Transform underutilized port areas into vibrant, mixed-use waterfront districts, enabling urban growth where traditional land-based development is impossible or too costly.
