The 'Fang Song' floating tiny home has been designed by the Beijing-based Crossboundaries architecture studio as an unconventional take on the humble tiny home aesthetic. The floating home is located in Berlin, Germany where it offers ample deck lounge space to provide impressive views of the surrounding water and landscape, while the interior features a range of design-conscious features. This includes a spacious living room complete with a Murphy bed to function as the primary bedroom, while the incorporating of a pellet stove offers warmth in the winter months.
The 'Fang Song' floating tiny home is also paired with a solar panel system on the top that's connected to a battery storage system to power the motor for emissions-free travel.
