  • The SayBoat by Milan Řídký
    Milan Řídký designed SayBoat for a Czech couple who wanted a simple but <a href="http://inhabitat.com/sanitov-unveil-eco-lux-floating-home-at-this-years-london-design-festival/">attractive floating home</a> with a view of the stars. No more than 4.2 meters across, the boathouse is clad in <a href="http://inhabitat.com/tag/beech-wood/">sustainable beech wood</a> and finished off with stainless detailing both inside and outside. Enormously resilient, protected by a wooden screen in summer, and warm in winter, SayBoat can be transported all over Europe.
