Cities of the Deep

Cutting-edge engineering is making it possible to live on the water in ways like never before. Using innovative construction methods, hi-tech structures are remaking cities and pushing the future of home building to new frontiers. Aquatecture strives for sustainable living with floating homes like Arkup #1 in North Miami, Florida and Seastead, off the coast of Thailand; smart floating communities like Schoonschip Amsterdam; floating dairy farms like Floating Farm in Rotterdam, Netherlands; and artificial islands like Freedom Cove in British Columbia, Canada.
