Waterarchitect is a multi-disciplinary collective of professionals. Its founder, Bart van Bueren specializes in DeltaDesign since 2005 and immediately got recognition as architect of the floating city (2006). Not much later municipality of Rotterdam embodied his climate adaptation vision in the cities' strategy of harbor redevelopment. His vision got exhibited at WorldExpo2010 Shanghai and resulted in the famous Floating Pavilion of Rotterdam. Al Gore himself made the soap bubble design from Van Bueren an icon for climate adaptation. By now, the collective of Waterarchitect got nominated and won a dozen competitions. Waterarchitect's vision gets presented worldwide, followed by numerous publications. In collaboration with WaterWonen-Rotterdam we are developing floating buildings in the Netherlands. With our ongoing research for flood resilient urbanization, we successfully patented in 2011 a low cost floating foundation enabling a businesscase for floating development. Bart van Bueren As founder, Van Bueren successfully launched DeltaSync and Waterarchitect. After he was asked to present his vision in America, Europe and Asia it was no surprise that Van Bueren became the young technical professional by NLengineers (2008). Among the competitions he won are Deltacompetition 2006, NCRV Klimaatshow 2007, Zuid-Hollandprijs 2009 winner and 2011 runner up.
