Ark Hotel
The Ark project was designed by
Russian firm Remistudio with the assistance of the International Union
of Architects program Architecture for Disasters Relief. The dome-shaped
hotel is constructed with wooden arches, steel cables and a
self-cleaning plastic layer instead of glass. The slinky-like Ark hotel
can be adapted to suit both land and water. It is built to stay afloat
in the event of floods or rising seas. The 14,000 square metre
shell-like construction of arches and cables distributes the weight
evenly, meaning it can withstand earthquakes. Daylight is filtered
through to internal rooms due to the hotels see-through structure,
reducing the need for lighting.
Designed as:an integrated energy system with an uninterruptible power supply using alternative energy sources, the hotel uses solar panels and a rainwater collection system to provide inhabitants with power and water. It would be built around a central pillar connecting to roof-top wind generators and heat pumps, as well as to energy storage and thermal conversion units below. There will also be a tornado energy generating spiral at the top of the pillar.
