Floating City concept by At Design Office features underwater roads and submarines

Looking at a different proposal project, it declares the profession of thinking broadly or rather more creative that leads to enhancing the achievement of developing something further in our lives.


Floating City Concept by AT Design Office 


The concept of a floating city in an ocean metropolis was an alternative idea that could resolve the problem from the overcrowd in China. The At Design Office have dealt with a Chinese Construction company CCCC to design a floating island that would be built from prefabricated hexagonal modules. (Architecture & Design, 2014)

The floating island area would take four square miles. As a construction work it was thought to be built the same way on how the Chinese Construction company CCCC have build the 31 miles bridge between the cities of Hong Kong, Macau and Zhuhai.  (A.Frearson, 2014)

The floating city concept features, underwater roads and submarines. The concept continues by  defining more details which consist the working system of how this project can be possibly achieved.

As the architectural reporter Amy Frearson, declares that the transportation can work through a networking system of yachts and submarines. In the city of the floating concept includes a floating hotel, entertainment complex, recreation of green spaces both above and below the water's surface.

Farming and hatchery will also be accessible, and for rubbish collection it would allow the community to produce its own food and sustainability dispose of waste. (A.Frearson, 2014)

Another intriguing key for this concept, Siska said that the project may be developed further to obtain energy efficiency and self sufficiency for a new urban nucleus of world class residential, commercial and cultural facilities.

Overall the concept design of a floating city, is quite extraordinary, extensive and different from other projects that I have gone through. Yet, I see a potential at certain elements that are reliable. The most captivating system that interested me, were the vertical farms and fish hatcheries that will be produced on the island, as well as the trash dispose will be sustained in their own waste.

I think if the system and the overall project proposal is possible, it would be magnificent to be created.
