If you ever thought that building a home on water is easy stuff, you got that wrong. There’s weather you should consider, water levels and so on. Located on an island on Lake Huron in Ontario, Canada, this floating residence is work of MOS Architects; and they did a great job with their steel platform structure with incorporated pontoons that keeps it floating. The guys are not only great with structures, but also have taste for interiors. With large windows, open spaces, contemporary furniture, lots of wood and an amazing view of the lake, the floating house sounds like a great retreat for those hot summers, isn’t it?

Floating Staircase by Jordi Vayreda – Beautiful or Dangerous ?

16 Comments »

This beautiful floating staircase designed by Jordi Vayreda and her Spanish design studio Jordivayreda Projectteam is something that you like to see, but just that. Personally I think that these stairs are quite dangerous, especially after I’ve read “The most common causes of death due to injury in the United States” , and found out that in 2000, 1,307 people died falling on and from stairs and steps. Finally what do you think ? Are these stairs something that you’ll want in your house, or you’d rather prefer something traditional and safe. – Via – Neatorama

Another Bed that almost Floats

4 Comments »

Joel Hesselgren has a very interesting design for this bed. At a first glance this bed might seem to float just like other “floating beds” that I’ve presented in this blog, Fluttua – The Floating Bed and Doze Bed . This bed is supported by two opposing corners that double as end tables. As you can see from the second picture the bed can double his size anytime you need to get an extra place for sleeping. The innovative frame can be divided to support two singles side by side. Sexy, sleek, and future safe. – Via – Yankodesign
