A semi-submerged resort hotel is the newest project from Giancarlo Zema, a Rome-based architect known for his organic maritime designs. The hotel spans one kilometer and has both land and sea portions.
The portion on land comprises a tower restaurant that’s surrounded by a marina, residential buildings, and offices. The sea portion, which branches out like giant tentacles, consists of 80 floating, jellyfish-like suites that will provide the guests with stunning underwater views.
