Floating
Structures and spaces designed to hover, cantilever, or exist on water, exploring weightlessness and aquatic integration.
Floating architecture challenges conventional building relationships with ground and landscape. Projects in this topic examine how structures can be suspended, cantilevered, or positioned on water through innovative material use and structural design.The community explores floating homes on canals and ponds, waterside pavilions that engage with natural environments, and adaptive designs for offshore and aquatic contexts. Work ranges from timber and cork constructions to steel interventions that redefine how buildings occupy transitional spaces.
