The ever interesting Style Will Save Us Blog recently featured a story about proposed water cities, like the Lily Pad (seen to the left). As mentioned, the idea is still in the conceptual process but is being offered as a part of the solution to address raising water levels that threaten major global cities, and thus the population and homes within. It would seem that modern architecture may be an efficient and chic way to address imposing climate issues and that designer like Callebaut may be leading the way in innovation and design.. Good Job!
