The Escape Pod: an escape from everyday life

If you live a fast and stressful life, then you need to recharge your batteries from time to time. It would be best to just imagine yourself on a lonely island, where there are no phones, computers, newspapers and people tugging on your sleeve. Unfortunately, this is not possible, but a slightly different solution is possible.

A house that can be built in 6 hours and costs only 28,000 euros

Fast and efficient! This is how we live or strive for it. Modern technologies naturally enable us to live this way, and why not use them to the fullest or turn them to our advantage. For example, why not build a house in a single day and pay for it a third less than before?

This is what the first underwater restaurant in Europe will look like

A spiral eco-resort in the Philippines that will not pollute the environment

When we think of the Philippines, we usually think of scorching sun, paradise beaches and a picturesque underwater world. But we rarely know that the country is facing serious environmental problems, such as lack of fish in the sea due to hunting, pollution caused by mass tourism, and so on. Now they have set up a luxury eco-resort, which usually brings all the mentioned problems in a package. But not this one.

Arctic Bath: a floating hotel in Sweden

The Lule River flows through Lapland in the north of Sweden, where Santa Claus lives, and the town of Harads stands next to it. The city, which is also known for the Treehotel, will build another unusual hotel. This time, instead of in the treetops, I prefer to be right on the river. 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.
