UM-Bot Posted May 20, 2018 #1 Share Posted May 20, 2018 Italian architecture firm Lazzarini Design Studio is looking to construct entire neighborhoods that float in the ocean. https://www.unexplained-mysteries.com/news/318174/firm-wants-to-build-city-of-floating-pyramids 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stiff Posted May 20, 2018 #2 Share Posted May 20, 2018 Wow, that looks absolutely spectacular, especially the underwater rooms with a panoramic view of the marine life. A kind of futuristic Venice if you were. But... it does throw up rather more questions than answers. It does hit upon storms and hurricanes but not just that. How do they stop from just generally drifting away with the currents and such? Will solar be enough to power a large mall? Would people get sea-sick when it's choppy? The list goes on. I guess they must have thought about these kind of things and not gone too in depth with the basic video. I really hope this takes off! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlitterRose Posted May 20, 2018 #3 Share Posted May 20, 2018 It would be fine until the first hurricane or tsunami. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nzo Posted May 20, 2018 #4 Share Posted May 20, 2018 Having been to Italy a number of times I can say it is quite beautiful or it was in years past. Unfortunately, a lot of the coastal towns etc. dump raw sewage right into the ocean. The same beaches that tourists swim in. I imagine this great architect/designer(sarcasm) has the same intentions.

evefromgh Posted May 24, 2018 #5 Share Posted May 24, 2018 Assuming it could go down under the sea, to a certain depth. Then it could be safe from hurricanes, however the tsunamis is a whole different story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissJatti Posted June 10, 2018 #6 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Love the idea, BUT since Earth is changing, and the weather is unpredictable than ever before, no where can be totally safe, no matter where in the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
