Futuristic Ideal AirShip Building – Hydrogenase

Vincent Callebaut released an ideal project, aiming to make buildings with 100% self-sufficient in energy and zero carbon emission. The new design is called Hydrogenase, looking like airships that only appear in fantasy illustrations. The inhabited vertical airship sets in the heart of a floating farm of seaweeds that reload it directly with bio-hydrogen. These two interdependent entities

A Luxury Tent opens my Window to the World!

Two-Footed Questions stir adventures in the mind. When Joanna Young asked, "Have you ever thought of your life as a building?" I hadn't. But her question helped me dream a little. Since the question opened a full range of possibilities , my thoughts soared, as if on a magic carpet. I wanted a structure that let me be a nomad, but provided luxury at the same time... So here's my building...

Exquisitely furnished luxury tents are designed for solitude and serenity. You easily fall asleep under the canopy of your tent [protected from insects and the like] and wake to your own private view of the sun rising over a breathtaking vista. A luxury tent best represents my architecture. Here's why...

A luxury tent opens flexibility I require in life. Since I'm a global citizen, a tent provides opportunities to both wander and wonder. Luxury takes the front seat because I don't like to "rough it." A luxury tent opens unmatched lifelong learning opportunities since I would be closer to the land and nature I love so much.

The framework of my tent's inspired by Rosa Say's principles of Joyful, Jubilant Learning:

Listen, Laugh, Learn, Link, Love, Live, and Leap to Wonder

Listen — welcome new ideas..., listening fully opened
Laugh — with positive and uplifting joy
Learn — with childlike curiosity
Link — use lessons learned as springboards, sharing knowledge freely
Love — tap into deep passion for learning from nature and others
Live — be a shining example of the Lifelong Learner; “Be the learner you want to see in the world”
Leap — to new experiences, stretching past the familiar, accepting leaps of higher intuition.
