Living Life in the water …
Architects, who re-interpret water as a living space in different countries of the world, are bringing a new breath to architecture with the “Rising Life in Water” areas.
These special projects, which are increasingly preferred by those who want to combine water enthusiasm with life style in the majority of the world’s water-integrated cities, move their lifestyle beyond being an alternative and turn into a decisive architectural approach in the future of cities.
Countries that adopt this new generation of architectural practices that reflect the combination of design and technology are re-interpreting the water as a living space, and attracting marine passion with comfort and functionality.
