A floating mansion designed for rising sea levels
For many, the idea of floating away from real life and traveling all over the world is a recurring fantasy. Arkup, a company based in Miami, Florida, might be able to turn that dream into a reality.
The Arkup houseboat, built by co-founders Arnaud Luguet and Nicolas Derouin, is a fully solar powered and sustainable luxury livable yacht that has 4,350 square foot total space, which includes 2,600 square foot indoor space and 1,750 square foot total outdoor space.
The Arkup has four hydraulic pilings that stabilize the vessel on the seafloor and can also be used to lift the living quarters above rising ocean waters.
