All About Design

This house is like ordinary float house, but when we viewed in more detail it turns out this house truly unique. The house consist of two floors where one floor is located above the water and the other floors is located in the water. Family room, dining room and kitchen area is situated above the water surface, while the bedroom, bathroom and other personal space that is submerged under water. Floating home or houseboat has a box-shaped design, simple and minimalist but modern with a slim profile. On the exterior portion of the lot: leave the lawn flat and trimmed on one side to match the open expanse of water on the other. Within the building space: create three levels – the bottom as a retreat, the middle as a welcoming main floor and the top a relatively bare rooftop deck for enjoying the outdoors. Designed by Dutch firm, WaterStudio, this house creates a simple method to experience life on the water.
