So much more fun than, say, actually doing something about climate change.The creators of the Water-Scraper believe that the effects of climate change mean it’s ‘only natural that we will populate the seas someday,’ so they designed this sustainable structure for us to occupy. The Water-Scraper uses wave, wind and solar power, and it even generates its own food through farming, aquaculture and hydroponics. A small forest is nestled on top, along with a garden and livestock, and the living areas are located just below sea level.

Stunning architecture designed by Huttunen-Lipasti-Pakkanen Architects. There is a lot I would be willing to do to live in a place like this.
”[Villa Mecklin] is located in the Finnish archipelago taking advantage, as it should, of the view and the sun. It sits between rocks, its sheltered terrace extending over the summit, offering a visual connection with the shoreline. There is a separate structure for the sauna. The wood burning fire pit and the stove heated cabins provide warmth when the sun goes down and is not filling the house with warm light.”
