Pearlsuite for Jet Capsule,

Each unit includes all the same amenities as a hotel room and is 100% solar-powered, creating enough energy for air conditioning, lighting, refrigeration, and other appliances.

Pearlsuites are designed for Jet Capsule, an Italian water mobility brand whose vision is to bring the heights of road and air travel luxury to the water, sustainably. From the top-specs flagship version of Pearlsuites, to a simplified, open version for beach clubs, the concept intends to introduce a brand-new niche into the seaside hospitality market. 

The floating suites would allow beach resorts to do the seemingly impossible: establish or expand their number of rooms in a matter of weeks, with zero carbon footprint, zero infrastructures, and zero land occupied, all at a low implementation cost. 

The units are customizable and, if anchored, multiple units clustered together could become a floating resort.

Design Concept

Biomimicry is the technique of mimicking the processes of nature and its elements - to build from the bottom up, optimize rather than maximize, use free energy, embrace diversity, adapt, use life-friendly materials and processes, engage in symbiotic relationships, and enhance the bio-sphere.

Designer: Cecille Cruz

Is this what the oceans of the near future will be like?

The plans disgusting yacht island for this have already been made and it's nearly on the market. Ok maybe it's not too bad in concept, it's just way too luxurious. It's a more static cruises ship. Reminds me of a bizzaro-world Green Peace Rainbow Warrior, but that's another story.

Could we colonize the sea? Could we create our own islands and claim the ocean?

I don't mean in the floating resort sort of way. But technology could make this possible. I am certainly not suggesting anything like this floating Mini-Monaco resort.

I'm talking more about a castaway/ Robinson Crusoe way. A way of starting over, equally sustainable, just a bit more high tech.
