Architectural Thesis 2014 Help

I have shortlisted some of proposals I had in mind and these were:

Floating Eco Resort - My selected site has a very limited space for development and the water is a No Build Zone as far as I know, but I do know some resorts even in the Philippines have structures/buildings on stilts over water. Do someone know how they did it legally? Instead of stilts, I'm thinking of making my Water Cottages as floating structures (if it is legally to do so in the Philippines)

The waters can be developed as diving spot.
The surrounding boundaries are hills rendering the cove as private and isolated. Motorized Bancas (Outrigger boats) is the mode of transportation getting from the Resort's beachfront to the cove.

Coconut Research Complex - This facility will address the need for continuing development of the "Tree of Life" as a sustainable source of wood and food, etc.


Regional Prison Facility - A state of the art Prison Facility and a first of its kind in the Philippines under the PPP scheme of the Government. (It will house the Senate House, kidding   )


My best asset would be the Eco Resort but I wanted to have a second opinion if floating structures are possible to develop in the Philippines.

My second best would be the Coconut Research Complex, and the third Regional Prison Facility. The third and last option is a first and a hard one because of Legal matters and data gathering + related literature regarding this.

maganda yung floating eco resort mo sir, madugo dugong research lang pagdating sa mga legalities ( pero di ba ang thesis ay dapat tungkol sa mga bagay at ideya na kahit hindi pa existing or nasasama sa tinatawag nating mga "norms" ) at saka sa actual na design nya (structural and architectural) lalo at hindi conventional ang naiisip mo (floating structures) . nasa paraan na siguro ng pagdefend mo yan or sa kung gano ka-open minded yung mga makakaharap mo sa defense pati adviser mo. Pero advise ko maganda yung eco-resort. Mahirap idefend, pero masaya naman pag naipasa.  
kung ipupursue mo to sir, suggest ko na magresearch ka about dun sa location mo, inventory mo flora and fauna (especially yung marine life) , yung storm path sa area (kung madalas ba tamaan ng bagyo) , wave pattern, tidal patterns, effect nito sa immediate community, etc etc etc.
kakaexcite to sir, galingan mo ha! good luck!

ayus yung floating eco resort brad,  alam ko may mga structure on stilt sa dos palmas, pearl farm...  dunno if you can reason out na bakit yung mga oil platform pwede magtayo ng structures sa dagat.
IMO, medyo mahirap lang dito e proper disposal ng waste... (fecal, etc.)

(lagay mo sa spratleys. hehe! walang earthquake, minimal chance magka tsunami. yun lang maraming mga chinese navy babakod sa resort.) hehehe!

Salamat mga sir sa reply.

yung earthquake po As far as I know hindi masyado makakaapekto sa floating depende sa lakas. Pinili ko pong site eh sa bandang Aurora kasi As far as I know napakatahimik talaga ng tubig ng Dagat Pasipiko. Pero nakaamba parin ang East Luzon Trench

Sa spratlys naman, hindi po pwede yung isla kasi eh disputed po haha. Mahigpit po ang Advisers at Jury namin pero try ko pa po maghanap ng ibang site
