Dogen City is an ambitious project that calls for the creation of a maritime city to withstand rising tides.

Meant to house up to 10,000 residents and 30,000 daytime visitors, it is broken into three major components.

The first is a habitable ring that creates a bay and protects the city from tsunamis.

The ring is tiered, with food and infrastructure sunk below the habitable zones.

Within the ring, floating architecture will allow for the reconfiguration of the space according to urban functions.

Below sea level sits a high-tech data center cooled by the ocean.

The center will house the city’s operating system, as well as much of its medical services.

This will keep energy costs down, allowing for an efficient use of the space.

To do this, I think it is desirable to build a city from scratch, a floating city.

Dogen City is a sustainable floating city concept from N-Ark.

Self-sustaining and habitable, the concept is a way to adapt to our changing climate.
