An amphibious building is a flood-resilient building that rests on the ground and whenever water rises or a flood occurs, the entire building rises up on its dock, where it floats, buoyed up by the floodwater. The building will return to the ground when the water recedes. It helps inhabitants and the house itself to be safe during a flood.

'Amphi Nest' is India's first working prototype of amphibious building technology with a concrete buoyant foundation, build to set an example of a flood resilient construction technique where people can continue their usual living style without compromising much during the flood. 

Amphibious houses can be built to be situated in/near a water body. On a similar construction cost range, the space inside the buoyant foundation can be used as a room compared to an ordinary foundation that we build now.

We request everyone to be a part of the Flood Resilient campaign started by the Nestabide Team to help the Flood affected people across India.
