Floating Housing / Watersport projects

This visionary floating housing and water sports complex is located on Al Timsah Lake in Al-Ismailia, Egypt. Inspired by Egypt’s Vision 2030 and the urgent need to address climate change, the project responds to rising water levels and decreasing land availability by embracing a self-sufficient, water-based lifestyle.

The housing units are designed to float, ensuring adaptability to environmental shifts while minimizing land consumption. The form generation of the units is based on a hexagonal geometry, chosen for its structural efficiency and spatial logic. Hexagons offer easy modular connectivity, visual and spatial continuity, and a larger surface area, which enhances stability on water and allows for flexible expansion across the lake.

Each unit integrates Jellyfish Barge technology, a sustainable agricultural system that uses hydroponic farming and solar-powered desalination to produce up to 150 liters of purified water per day. Each barge supports the needs of 8 residents, providing both food and clean water without relying on external infrastructure.

Electricity is generated through silent kinetic energy kits, offering uninterrupted power without noise pollution—ideal for both residential comfort and eco-tourism appeal.

The project also includes a dedicated Water Sports Center, capitalizing on the lake’s popularity among tourists. With facilities for kayaking, jet skiing, and other aquatic activities, the center enhances the region’s recreational offerings while promoting eco-conscious tourism.

This floating development is not just a response to climate challenges—it’s a prototype for future living, blending architecture, sustainability, and tourism into a resilient and regenerative ecosystem.
