  • Asteroidea, prototype of a floating aquatic city (mid terrestrial and mid aquatic) Asteroidea amphibian city that can accommodate up to 50,000 inhabitants meets the Challenges of urban and sustainable human development, the protection of our living environment, our ecosystem of our planet (shelter, climate, biodiversity, water and health are the priorities). 


    The Ecopolis, the Hydropolis is the «self-sufficient» in various primordial everyday sectors (energy, food, economy, etc.). The multi-functional and multicultural city whose morphology is in perfect harmony and symbiosis with the cycles and elements of nature offers an alternative to climate refugees. The project is based on morphology, symbolic and lifestyle of starfish (five arms). The city is a space dedicated to nomadism and the urban ecology in aquatic environments: she travelled to flotation on the "sixth continent"; the world ocean. This is to create an environment that enlarges the ecological qualities by offering recycling systems and efficient waste treatment.


    The advantage of this concept is to guarantee an Eco-design, an optimal performance in production of renewable energy, food and shelter. By combining technology, biotechnology, eco-design, Eco-design Eco-efficiency and eco-management, we want to achieve a positive energy balance close to zero carbon emissions, and we will manage to convey a message of hope for humanity.
