It attempts to describe the futuristic proposal of constructing on water due to scarcity of land and decreasing of lands due to global warming issues and the resulted sea level rise, also the consequences of making artificial (man-made) islands that are in direct connection to Bahrain Island. This report briefly examines the theoretical roots of the proposal including basic criteria and architectural aspects of structure within water body that could satisfy the human needs. Key words: Building on water, artificial islands, comparison, structure, architectural aspect. 1. Introduction 1.2 Need of the Project 1.1 Inspiration of the Project “Due to a lot of land reclamation in Bahrain and Bahrain has limited land area which leads to having less coastal areas to be built around and the threat of urban developing projects due to the needs for future sea level rise , this project provides an alternative for urban lands. The inspiration of the project comes from land reclamation with constructing in the water that the growing trend of reclamation of the land and the could reduce the environmental effects due to land fact that by reclaiming the land we are faced by many reclamation to minimum.” As we know three quarters social and economical problems [1] consequently, this of the earth is made up of water yet humans decide to reclamation damages and destroys the marine live and live on land and overpopulate it. -
