"La Balsanera," Babahoyo, Ecuador,
Several centuries ago, the Babahoyo River in Ecuador, with its floating houses, was one of the main storage and rest points on the trade route taken by merchants and farmers between the cities of Guayaquil and Quito.
Today, the river is no longer used as a trade route, and the number of floating structures has fallen from 200 to 25, putting them at risk of extinction, despite being recognized as intangible human heritage in Ecuador.

The 1983 “Cedar Bridge House” designed by renowned architect Will Armster in Glastonbury Connecticut is pretty cool. It “floats” among the trees, has 2bd  2ba and is a pretty reasonable $497K for such a unique home.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It has a spacious living room with windows to see the trees, of course, and a glass ceiling over the sofa.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Round skylight over the round table. Very cool. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Glass island and look at the cool geometric backsplash. 
Tumblr media
On the other side of the kitchen is a long hall w/skylights. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Spacious main bd. has doors to a deck. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Has a cool en-suite. Everything is long and narrow, b/c the house is long, but it looks good.
Tumblr media
So, that’s the garage, and I would imagine that’s how you enter the house. 
Tumblr media
There’s this large deck with a hot tub.
Tumblr media
Then there’re stairs to go up into the house or come down to go out to the deck.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
There are 2 more open decs on the opposite end of the house. 
Tumblr media
Diorama of the the interior.

Found by Ingmek73 - a floating home. It’s in the Netherlands and priced at  €795,000 ($790,235) but it’s unusual b/c it doesn’t look like it, but the home is 2 floors- the lower floor is in the water. Notice how there’re stairs that lead directly into the water.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Also, the homes are in clusters of 4.
Tumblr media
So, you and your neighbors have a dock to walk to your respective homes.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And, you each get your own deck on the water.
Tumblr media
The main living area, that opens to the deck, is one space for the living room, dining room and kitchen. I can’t tell what kind of flooring that is. Could it be a rubber floor?
Tumblr media
Close up the modern kitchen.
Tumblr media
I wish they would’ve put in a glass wall in, so you could see the beach while dining. 
Tumblr media
The bedrooms are downstairs, and the reason that the windows are so high is b/c the lower floor is partially submerged- how unique is that? You can see these windows just above the water line from outside.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This bd. has a sauna. 
Tumblr media
Now, I wonder if you can hear the water lapping against the walls. I don’t know, I feel claustrophobic, especially knowing that it’s submerged. Some swimmer can actually swim up to your home and look in the bedroom windows. I would freak out.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The bath has lovely blue tile to tie in w/the water theme. You actually enter the house in the hall, right where the bathroom and stairs to the lower floor are.
Tumblr media
Nice view of the beach.

Green Water Village, Miami, Florida, USA,
The project of the new floating village is conceived as a series of artificial islands: these are juxtaposed in a free, irregular, and sequential way, connecting Miami's coast / Legion Park with Picnic Island. These are individual floating artificial islands (empty caissons technology), irregular hexagonal polygons, all the same but juxtaposed to form an irregular and organic network, opening different paths and views towards the interior spaces and towards the Miami bay. Each single artificial island houses a prefabricated house in metal, wood and glass, on one level or on two floors depending on the type of dwelling. The aggregation of the islands-houseboats creates small ports for the landing of individual boats, while a continuous and sinuous wooden path connects all the units. The spaces and houses are enriched and characterized by spaces of relationship in which the theme of green is predominant: they are glass and metal cages with an irregular shape that host relaxing and meeting garden spaces that make the floating village. New technologies for capturing rainwater and humidity characterize these iconic volumes, and wind turbines and masts are positioned on their tops.
Gabriele Filippi  Architect,
Arch Out Loud’s Miami Floating House Competition
