The latest volume in Prestels "House" series explores a revolutionary movement in land useone that doesnt involve land at all.This exploration of built and yettoberealized aquatic habitats shows how water has become architectures next frontier. Whether theyre floating on top, hovering over, or submerged beneath the water, each of the more than fifty structures examined here demonstrates an innovative use of water resources.Colorfully illustrated with photographs, drawings, and plans, this global and historic sampling includes Shanghais Bionic Tower, complete with its own lake; Biorock, an artificial reef in the Indian Ocean; an undersea hotel where scuba divers can spend a comfortable night; and Swedens Ice Hotel, where translucent frozen walls reveal the beauty of the Northern Lights. Each of these projects demonstrates mans ability to live in the water without interfering with natures rhythms. Together they offer reassuring proof that todays architects are finding workable and appealing solutions to the problems of shrinking resources and growing populations.
