这一想法的灵感来源于欧洲和日本建筑师在20世纪60年代提出的富有远见的城市。该方案基本上类似于海上石油平台，由敞开式钢桁架柱支撑，包括楼梯和电梯(一旦发生严重风暴，就可以升起)。房屋和商业建筑将是模块化的预制结构，可以使用起重机将其吊装在平台上。

This idea was inspired by the visionary raised cities proposed by architects in Europe and Japan in the 1960’s. The scheme is essentially similar to an offshore oil platform, supported by open steel truss columns housing stairs and elevators (which could be raised up in the event of a severe storm). Houses and commercial buildings would be modular prefabricated structures which could be lifted and installed on the platforms using cranes.

为了减少基础设施和防止风暴中的垃圾和有毒废物，汽车将停在附近的大陆停车场。单轨铁路将停车场与站台连接起来。人们会通过步行或骑自行车在木人行道上在站台上循环。木甲板的公共空间围绕着平台的大开口，与平台的开放式钢结构一起，让充足的光线过滤在下面。这是设计的一个关键因素，因为整个计划的成功取决于在海滩层面创造一个愉快的体验。

To reduce infrastructure and prevent debris and toxic waste during storms, cars would be parked in a nearby mainland parking lot. Monorails would connect the parking lot to the platform. People would circulate on the platform by walking or cycling on wooden walkways. Wood-decked public spaces surround large openings in the platform which, along with the open steel structure of the platform, allow abundant light to filter below. This is a critical element of the design as the success of the entire scheme depends on creating a pleasant experience at the beach level.

紧急疏散是设计中的一个重要考虑因素。当需要疏散时，电梯或散落各处的小型公共吊车将用于提升所有海滩设备(自行车、冲浪板、雨伞等)。到房子里去。然后，居民们将乘坐一辆小车或单轨铁路到停机坪，然后驱车离开即将到来的风暴。

Emergency evacuation is an important consideration in the design. When evacuation is necessary, elevators or smaller public hoists scattered throughout would be used to lift all beach equipment (bicycles, surfboards, umbrellas, etc.) up into the houses. The inhabitants would then take a small vehicle or monorail to the parking decks and drive away from the incoming storm.
