Julia Watson is an architect studying indigenous low-tech designs.
She observed how the Kashi people overcame the problems presented with living in a region of monsoons and high average rainfall. The torrential flash-floods and rivers would often destroy any infrastructure so the people planted native trees/shrubbery which grew over 50 years and was woven into bridges.
This long-term, low tech solution proved far more resilient than any design which fought against nature.
