![The term āliving in a bubbleā may be associated with being disconnected from the harsh realities of the world, but in this case, itās actually a good thing!
The Living OāPod is an experimental pod house that promotes a better lifestyle through the integration of nature into the homeās design. Designed for two people to comfortably stay in, the pod is shaped like a transparent bubble that sits amongst the wilderness, with a design so minimal, it puts its surroundings front and center.
The two-story pod comes with a steel frame as its main structure, and glass panels all around, almost like a glass igloo. While this undeniably does a number on resident privacy, its remote location itself gives you the solitude you need to live with absolute transparency. The obvious benefit? Incredible lighting, stellar views, and probably the best sunrises and sunsets you could enjoy within the comforts of your bed!

![Called Island, this double-decker driverless tram has been designed especially for the city of Hong Kong, for the post-pandemic age. It won the 2020 GIDA Design Award.
The exteriors have been influenced by the buildings with curved curtain walls found in Hong Kong. Huge circular benches mark the interior of the tram, which allows passengers to sit facing outwards. The interiors feature charcoal gray walls, cushioned seats, wooden floors and trims with natural finish.

![Odessa-based architecture and interior design firm K&B Partners designed the āShell Houseā. Led by Kovtun Yuri and Burakov Egor, the firm created this structure to function as a modern family recreation center, located near the sea in Koblevo, Mykolaiv region, Ukraine. The intriguing structure draws its inspiration from mussels ā a common mollusk found in the local area.
The mussel-shaped home is primarily built from wood ā including the structure, and the outer decorative shell. Although situated on a single site, it serves as a home for multiple families. It is targeted toward small families of two people, or larger families of four or more people. If you look closely at the intriguing shape of the structure, youāll notice that it mimics the shell of a bivalve mollusk specifically. Two massive shells are connected via a hinge, giving the modern recreation center a completely innovative and unique exterior.
Multiple Shell Houses are placed next to each other to create homes for different families. We, presume, each family will get their own living unit to reside in. A view from the top showcases mussel-inspired cottages that are almost smushed together ā creating not only an interesting visual but architectural structures that somehow perfectly merge with their surroundings.
