Re: Damages or destruction to my belongings in a rented storage room/space
If you have insurance, most definitely file claim. Also, if an investigation was done, find out what caused the flood. If it was negligence caused by the landlord, you may have a claim against them as well.
As far as your intellectual property, that cannot be destroyed by the flood, because it is an intangible asset. In other words, your intellectual property was your good will, trademarks and your copyrights, which have not been affected.
Good luck in your future endeavors.
