In response to the destruction caused by Hurricane Sandy, the 3C Competition called for ideas on resilient housing typologies and urban planning that could make an impact on local town regulations.

This project proposes not just a storm resilient house, but a neighbourhood that is committed to managing storm water on site. Over 90% of horizontal surfaces are designed to be water permeable, allowing more water to be retained where it falls, and reducing the amount runoff flooding storm sewers during severe rain events.llery.
