Architectural Concept: Lilypad Floating City
Water CityBy now, most of us have heard about the Island Cities being built
in Dubai , but Inhabitat has just done a feature on a new concept by artist
Vincent Callebaut for a self-sufficient floating city that will never have
to face a problem about finding land to build on. The “Lilypad” would take
advantage of all of today’s green technologies, including generating power
from the sun, wind a nd water, and would produce zero emissions from its
residents. Don’t expect to see construction on one of these anytime soon,
but don’t be surprised if, like the Island Cities in Dubai , real estate
starts branching out into the oceans in the next decade.
