Floating Homes of the Future

WHY Floating Home

With more than 3,000 square feet of living surface and three levels of decking, the WHY concept yacht is designed for living — and entertaining. In part, what distinguishes the design is its emphasis on sustainability (relative to other yachts.) The vessel relies on thermal energy and recycled organic and inorganic waste, ideally resulting in a low impact on the sea. Luxurious and easy on the eye, the minimalist interiors features walls of glass, modern furnishings, an elaborate curved staircase and a tree growing in the center of the living space.

"I wonder where the world might run out of land at some point which will redirect us as Architects to look more into building in homes in the ocean. Something along the lines of Venice...

It really is a fascinating idea from what I could say. Ofcourse, there is so much to consider which is the same building on land but all in all, it is just an open idea..." by Phumulani M. Zwane
