Blue Aqua

Micro Home

Self-sufficient life on the water: With our concept, we want to use available water surfaces and create new living space to make the best use of special locations. The energy is generated directly with water-force, and also with regard to the internal water supply. Blue Aqua works completely autonomously. Water is taken from the river and purified to obtain drinking-water quality. The resulting waste water passes through a new cleaning process and is subsequently returned to the water source. The organic form supports the positive energy balance. The construction is characterized by high stability and the perfect micro-climate inside.

JURY STATEMENT

A timely concept that involves an ecological, sustainable way of living in a 'nest' on the water. The project also looks at water from different perspectives and in its different functions but always as part of a balanced design solution related to dwelling in an environmentally friendly system.

WINNER STATEMENT

Thanks a lot for this amazing award! We are very happy that our work has been recognized. Special thanks go to the jury and Professor Susanne Schade, who supported us during the project.
