With the number of natural disasters it’s only natural that we should protect ourselves and our homes as much as possible and that's where the Water Wonen comes in.
Designed by the dutch firm NL Architects, the Water Wonen not only proposes living on water, but also the ability of water transportation. Traditional houseboats are a static invention which seems silly since travel is so accessible on water. It depends on a tow boat to move. The Water Wonen hopes to eliminate this dependency.
Take a look at the gallery for images, courtesy of Designboom.com, on how the Water Wonen hopes to achieve this. Also click here for more info and images.
