Ocean Vortex, the speculative floating parliament he conceived, does exactly that — and in doing so, reimagines what civic architecture can mean when the crisis it addresses becomes the material it’s built from. Recognized as a finalist in the…
Floating design is a product-led architectural approach that prioritizes spatial freedom and visual continuity. By lifting elements from the ground, spatial and product design achieves clarity, allowing products, surfaces, and volumes to read as lighter, more refined interventions within the space. In contemporary interior architecture, this language of suspension reflects a precise balance between engineering…
Water has always pushed architects to think beyond solid ground, creating spaces that float, flow, and respond to natural rhythms. Floating architectural marvels showcase humanity’s most innovative approach to waterside living, where design meets engineering to create experiences impossible on land.

The vision is simple: to offer a home that feels both rooted…
After more than a decade of anticipation, New York’s East River will soon host one of the city’s most intriguing public amenities: +POOL. This 9,000-square-foot floating pool isn’t just about fun; it’s a thoughtful blend of design, technology, and city life. The concept is simple yet ambitious—a plus-shaped pool that filters river water and creates…
The shimmering waterways of Rotterdam are about to gain a new landmark, one that floats gently above the waterline and reimagines how cities might respond to the pressures of growth.
