Staffan who design this home, don’t talk about huge storm . she talk about climate changed and some technology for this home…..

“The micro climate is a challenge, with moisture, water, winds and ice in our part of the world.

“The general idea was to make a shell to take care of this special climate and inside of that, you can use whatever material you like, just as in an ordinary house.

“Another leading word in this project is sustainability not just for the construction itself but solutions for water, sewer and heat.

“Stability is another important factor which led to the idea of building a spread-out, heavy hull and above that, as low weight as possible.

“To ensure a construction without moisture inside (everybody that has slept in a small boat has seen it dripping inside the hull) we developed a concrete hull insulated on the outside. To keep the insulation on the outside is a natural decision for us living in a colder climate, it’s what we always do, but it has not been done in the water as far as I know.

“On top of that we designed a lightweight vacuum glued sandwich element, containing no organic materials, to make sure of a strong, long lasting and well insulated construction. The elements are glued together at the building site and the hole construction is extremely strong, very efficient both insulating and moisture proof.

“The material outside is gel coat, glass, painted aluminum and stainless steel which keeps the maintenance to a minimum. There are though, some wood that needs to be oiled sometimes.
