$6.5 Million Floating House – ORSOS Artificial Islands Pastimers – World’s Best & Worst Pastimers – World’s Best & Worst

    I WONDER HOW MANY of the CABALELITES,” HAVE ONE of THESE? To ESCAPE their OWN DEMISES. WE already KNOW many have invested in SPACESHIPS and SUPER SONIC fast FANCY PLANES decked to the “Teeth!” This would SOLVE some OVER-POPULATION PROBLEMS in CERTAIN COUNTRIES, BUT ONLY if they were a HECK of a lot CHEAPER as WELL! NO, the WORLD is “NOT,” OVERPOPULATED that is a BIG FAT ILLUMINATI LIE! But there ARE some CITIES that HAVE way MORE PEOPLE in them, than others. WITH the AMOUNT of LAND on this PLANET, THERE is “PLENTY of ROOM, for EVERYONE!” Regardless of what the LIARS in Governments say!

BY the WAY, “WHO SAYS that you CAN ONLY BUILD on the LAND?” NO ONE IMPORTANT as FAR AS THE LIGHT FORCES are CONCERNED!

$6.5 Million Floating House – ORSOS Artificial Islands

An Island made from plastic bottles by Richart Sowa

Published on Nov 14, 2013

A floating artificial island built in Mexico by British artist Richart “Rishi” Sowa. He’s first Island was destroyed by a hurricane in 2005; a replacement, Joyxee Island, has been open for tours since 2008.
In the waters of Isla Mujeres, the “Island of Women”, near Cancun. It opened for tours in August, 2008.
The new island was initially 20 metres (66 ft) in diameter, which has since expanded to 25 metres (82 ft), and plants and mangroves are already growing on it. It contains about 100,000 bottles. The new island has three beaches, a house, two ponds, a solar-powered waterfall and river, a wave-powered washing machine and solar panels. Volunteers helped with the project. Sowa will continue to make improvements to the Island, so it will always be a work of art in progress.

Published on Jun 24, 2014

Yksi Suomen hienoimmista saunalautoista!

Järvi on todella kirkasvetinen ja rannoilla ei ole mökkejä, joten koko vesialue on omassa käytössä! Keskellä on kaksi saarta, joista löytyy laiturilla kelluva kylpytynnyri sekä nuotiopaikka.

Lautan kannella voi grillata ja ottaa aurinkoa sekä hyppiä veteen! SUP-laudoilla on kätevä lähteä tutkimaan järveä tarkemmin ja etsimään hyviä sukelluskohteita!

Giancarlo Zema Design eco-friendly solar-powered floating home

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fzozabzwHe8

Published on Mar 19, 2015

Italian architect Giancarlo Zema has designed a new eco-friendly floating home. The WaterNest 100 is a circular pod-like structure that provides 100 sq m (1,076 sq ft) of living space. Up to 98 percent of the structure is made of recycled materials and it is powered by a roof-top solar array.

Zema is no stranger to designing innovative aquatic residences. His previous concepts have included the Trilobis 65 yacht-cum-home, a semi-submerged cliff-side dwelling and a five-level floating apartment block. Unlike these designs, however, the WaterNest 100 feels practical and like something you might actually live in one day.

“The inspiration came from observing the aquatic nests of water birds all over the world where they can live and growing their babies in total harmony with nature,” explains Zema to Gizmag. “So I thought of designing something similar that can help us to embrace life and allow us to live a floating experience in a natural and energy saving habitat.”

The WaterNest 100 has a 60 sq m (646 sq ft) solar array integrated into its roof (Image: G…
It’s designed for being moored on rivers, lakes, bays, atolls and calm seas. The gorgeous curved structure is 12 m (39 ft) in diameter and 4 m (13 ft) high. It has a recycled aluminum hull, a laminated wooden supporting frame, and curved wooden cladding and partition walls that are treated to be weather-resistant.

Electricity is generated via a 60 sq m (646 sq ft) solar array that is integrated into the roof of the structure. Amorphous solar panels are used, which are shaped to match the curve of the building’s roof. EcoFloLife, which has developed the WaterNest 100 based on Zema’s design, says the array has a peak output of 4 kWp, but that the WaterNest 100 can operate on around 1 kWp.

In addition, a micro-ventilation system is employed, with ceiling and floor air grilles allowing for the introduction of fresh air to the interior. EcoFloLife says an automated temperature control system ensures very low energy consumption and minimal maintenance.

The interior of the WaterNest 100 can be configured in a variety of different ways, each generally incorporating a central square space and accommodating up to a family of four with two bedrooms. As well as being used as a residential unit, it’s possible to set up as an office, lounge bar, restaurant, shop or exhibition space.

A home automation system allows users to control lighting, draw curtains and blinds, and control the sound system. Preset lighting, air conditioning and sound profiles can be triggered, and users can monitor energy consumption and temperature. EcoFloLife also suggests a variety of different eco-friendly furniture options.

Zema says that the WaterNest 100 will be realized very soon. We’re waiting to hear back on more detail of when that might be, if any prototypes have already been produced and how much a Water Nest 100 might set you back.

Indonesia. Floating Houses | Tribes & Ethnic Groups

Published on May 16, 2015

At dusk, the boats that have been out hunting come together again. These apparently fragile floating houses are made of wood from the Api tree, and are incredibly resistant, able to withstand an entire lifetime on the sea.

There is virtually no space in which to move, so much so that the people have stunted legs. The kitchen is in the stern, in the middle the bedrooms and the larder, and in the prow the living room. Though it would seem impossible, an entire family of five members can live on a single boat. They may have very little living space, but the world that surrounds them is in constant change and movement, is open and free.

When a child comes into the world, its father throws it into the water to initiate it into this marine environment. At four years old, the child already knows how to manoeuvre the leppa, and by the time they are seven they know all the fishing techniques. They live in such close contact with the sea that when they are born they are given names that describe the surroundings at the time of their birth. Here we find names such as ‘bird alighting on a palm trees that has fallen into the water’, ‘three black clouds in the sky’; or ‘eastern storm with strong winds’.

The day is coming to an end in the calm waters of the gulf of Tomini , it is time for the Bajau to take their boats alongside the mangrove swamps, where they will be protected.
These nomads of the sea, like the immense majority of traditional communities on this earth, are facing immense, profound changes. Little by little, they are disappearing in silence, and with them centuries of wisdom, forged and practiced over time.
There is a Bajau saying that reads: “ We conserve only what we love, we love only what we understand, and we understand only what we have been taught.”
