Life on Buoys

Discarded storage tanks become buoyancy devices and old shipping containers become wall panels, while submerged structures provide both flotation and coral-reef habitat. Modular homes anchor to pre-installed seabed structures and link to one another and to community centers for stability.

With 14 wall-panel and 12 roof options, residents personalize their homes; as the community proliferates across a wider territory, its main street extends with it.
