Summary:In the Netherlands, climate change brings more frequent and extreme rainfall causing fluvial flooding. The urban water systems are unable to deal with this change in the hydrological cycle in spite of the fact that the Dutch have lived with this condition for centuries. The question is: What is the tradition of building in wet and soft soil conditions? There is a lack of systematic research into this matter and a base for future development is missing. A framework of seven phases offers insight into the relation between the landscape, the available technology and urbanization per phase. The method of building-site preparation is crucial in the way that urban design is connected to the landscape as carrier of the hydrological system.
