Life Aquatic

Architects emphasize oasis living with incredible pools and watery surroundings

Implications - Not everyone can live near the ocean or a body of water, but one can certainly incorporate these elements into their home through the addition of mega pools and aquatic architecture. Houses with oceanic elements, whether man-made or manipulated from natural surroundings, are striking chords amongst those who value the environment, oasis living and nature-inspired architecture.
Trend Themes
1. Aquatic and Oasis Architecture - Architects are emphasizing structures that have a connection to bodies of water and natural surroundings.
2. Integration of Natural Elements - Design features bring nature into modern homes in creative ways.
3. Sustainability and Eco-friendliness - A strong focus on using renewable materials and reducing environmental impact in modern architectural design.
Industry Implications
1. Architecture - Modern architecture is constantly evolving to adapt designs that are more sustainable and responsive to the environment.
2. Real Estate - Residential, commercial and industrial real estate sectors can benefit from incorporating features of eco-friendliness and sustainability in their development projects.
3. Interior Design - Designers have an opportunity to create new experiences for homeowners using elements that bring nature indoors in unique ways.
