There is a new super green super cool concept for floating hotel suites that hold up to six people for what has to be a great time. It includes an underwater observation room and motors to move about your location. It is also totally solar powered. I would definitely pay for a stay at this place if it I could afford it.
Convinced that solar energy is the solution to global warming and environment issues, Michele Puzzolante, Italian Industrial Designer, decided to get involved in the green energy new era by inventing a unique building integrated photovoltaic concept totally self-sufficient energy generator, non-polluting and in unison with its natural surroundings. Michele Puzzolante’s invention is based on a new structural element that is composed of a fifteen millimeter outside skin and a fifteen millimeter inside skin in balsa reinforced fiberglass. Thin films photovoltaic are integrated into the two skins to absorb sunlight energy from the outside and artificial lighting energy from the inside. Between the two skins there is a thirty centimeter vacuum insulation to protect the habitation from outside heat as well as reducing the consummation of air conditioning to the minimum.

That’s cool! Just have to make sure you allow clearance for your observation deck. Very nice, thanks for sharing this.
