Reclamation has been a prevalent land solution of Hong Kong. The project criticizes conventional reclamation methods and technologies that have been the major causes of environmental, economic and ecological degradations. Through a series of research, design and testing processes in exploring computational generative large-scale floating structures, an alternative reclamation proposal of permanent dwellings on the sea is established speculating an innovative way of land formation and urban planning. As a result, architecture becomes a leading instrument of social change.
