random architectural design inspiration


Waterworld by Atkin Architecture group





The blog statement:

"Design bt Atkin’s Architecture Group, Set in a quarry mine in Songjiang China this 400 bed resort hotel is uniquely constructed and design to blend with nature. Public areas include underwater guest rooms and underwater cafes and restaurant. The project is still in design stage and I would love to read about the water control system proposed. Underwater projects? Dubai’s Hydropolis Underwater Hotel is still the most unique among all."

I stumble upon this blog which shows architectural design of a resort hotel in China..imagine how they construct the water pipe system and all since the hotel is built-in underground. I would want to go to one of this fancy hotel. Its like having a huge waterfall wonderland and a five star deluxe hotel altogether. You dont have to travel to somewhere near the beach when you can have it built INSIDE the hotel itself. and also imagine how much it would cost for one room,yikes!. This hotel is still under construction, but it still cant beat the Dubai Hydropolis Underwater Hotel. Prepared to be amazed...












It is the world first luxury hotel underwater located 20 meter below the surface of the arabian gulf off the Jumeirah Beach Coastline in Dubai. It include 3 elements:

1. The land station- where guests will be welcomed
2. The connecting tunner- Which will transport people by train to the main area of the hotel
3. The 220 suites within the submarine leisure complex.

This project only have cost up to 500 million dollars with its incredible view underwater and luxurious suites, a ballroom, shopping mall and missile defense system to ward off terrorists!
