Studiomobile, an Italian architectural firm, have been working during the last couple of years in the United Arab Emirates and their most recent development is the concept seawater vertical farm. Their design, the Seawater Vertical farm utilizes seawater to keep cool and moisten greenhouses and to transform enough humidity back in to water to irrigate the plants. This project would be very much helpful where the supply of fresh water is limited and not much local cultivations are taking part. This project is very expensive but has been considered feasible because of the urban transport problem and the high soil value.

Many of the auto concept designers are trying to create best of both worlds by being inspired and transforming one means of transport to another one thereby deriving exciting results. Like the new Foiljet MR1 which on the look of it seems to have been designed for sheer fun as it has taken the best of the features of motocross bike and jet ski along with two hydrofoils and a silent energy efficient electric motor all of which together create a mind blowing effect. The motor helps the bike to be raise out of water thereby giving maximum fun to the rider. A nice and cool concept for fun in the waters!

This new concept by Jason Hill and Nathan Armstrong is carrying forward the philosophy identified in Aptera 2e. This environmentally sound beauty made for zipping on the waters is a concept that Tamarack Lake Electric Company would like to be associated with. The energy variant in this boat is solar powered Loon and this giving the boat a new signature look. Also since, the twin hulls have been integrated to the deck, it is more rigid but the weight is also kept on the lower side. The best thing being that everything right from the wood to the solar panels all are made of eco friendly material. A nice and cool design though!
