In the Aspergle region of the Netherlands, on the beautiful Mas River bank there are some uniquely positioned houses. In the eyes of ordinary people, these houses are not located in a good place, because this river will flood regularly. However, the designer of these houses, Coen Oltwies, told people that they were not building ordinary houses, but "Noah's Ark", because these houses can float on the water during floods; they are a new type of amphibious house.
