a lesson in adaptation

A beautiful experience

Learning to find your place

Possibly cold if you didn’t bring the right clothes

Possibly hot if you didn’t bring the right clothes

Floating Island

Floating Island - Alexander Asadov

As fears of global warming induced population displacement are steadily realized, the allure of waterborne aquatecture becomes more and more enticing. Designed by Alexander Asadov, this incredible floating Aerohotel features a lighter-than-air aesthetic that sits serenely atop an elegant system of supports. Conceived as an elevated aquatic structure replete with hanging gardens, the space-age floating island preserves the entire extent of the ecosystem beneath it, contrasting with man-made islands that disrupt their immediate environment with tons of gravel fill.
