Uban flooding is an ongoing problem due to climate change and increased urbanization. This paper aims to research solutions on flood-proof architecture, and flood-proofing techniques that can lessen the impact of urban flooding. Based on an intensive literature review and case-based analysis, solutions were proposed. This includes design principles, elevated structures, water-resistant construction materials, and green design plans. Modern solutions that focus on technology were also discussed, such as amphibious structures and hydraulic barriers. These architectural solutions not only contribute to flood-proofing but also increase resilience and ensures functionality in our urban spaces with aesthetic value. Ultimately, architectural practices must address environmental issues in mind to promote healthy urbanization.
