A floating hotel in the summer, but immobile in the winter due to the ice. Architects Bertil Harström and Johan Kauppi have their heads full of ideas, obviously.

The island of Providenciales, which is located in the Caribbean archipelago, is considered one of the most beautiful, as it is surrounded by turquoise seas and white, sandy beaches.
