Regulations take an important role when defining the reach of new technologies, currencies and floating developments. In this episode Guiseppe Carussi from Giancarlo Zema Design Group talks with our CEO Nathalie Mezza-García about the challenges that planning over water take and explains how with the help of energy efficient systems and following current design tendencies they generate an organic synergy between the environment and their designs. Looking forward to what's coming, Carussi states that the future of floating is underwater, opening even more doors for new ideas and creative possibilities to materialise.

In this video, our CEO, Nathalie Mezza-Garcia, talked with Richard Coutts, co-founder of Baca Architects, an architecture firm based in London working with projects on or near water. Richard tells us about the origin of some of their designs, how they've emerged, and even shows us the original drafts of some of the most impressive floating projects the firm has developed. Richard takes us on a trip to the Underwater Discovery Centre, the Floating Sanctuary, and one of Baca's most iconic works, the Amphibious House of Buckinghamshire in the UK. This house rises or lowers as the water level changes. Here you'll find out what the difference is between amphibious and floating houses, and Baca's commitment to a greener/blue, and overall, more sustainable future. @bacaarchitects @Baca_Architects #floatingcities #seaphia #floatingarchitecture #aquatecture

We are very excited about the new series of videos that we are going to share with all of you. We've recorded several episodes already and can't wait to share them with you!

Seaphia and Blue21 suggest that a place like this can promote leadership endeavors, jobs, and alliances in the Blue Economy in coastal cities such as Barranquilla. A novel floating project for the city with a winning formula, in which sustainable, erosion-proof floating facilities will be combined with incubation, acceleration, and support programs for startups and a Blue Market serving companies, universities, communities, and NGOs of the Atlantic. The project is currently in the planning stage and actively looking for sponsoring partners and investors. They will have the privilege of being pioneers in the creation of a vision with scientific and social impact. If you are interested in investing, or someone who would, comes to mind, you can write to contacto@seaphia.blue, we will get in touch. https://www.seaphia.blue/ https://www.blue21.nl/
