“Paddling Home”- A tiny floating house

Kacey Wong from Hong Kong has created a tiny floating house called “Paddling Home” as part of the 2009 Hong Kong & Shenzhen Bi-City Biennale of Urbanism/ Architecture showing till 2/27/2010. It is a 4’x 4’x 4’ small house covered with pink tiling on the outside, protruded bay window and amenities such as such as air conditioning, stainless steel gate etc. It is fixed atop four barrels which float on water. Last week Wong launched the boat playing golf on the roof and also fishing on it. The boat house boasts of a 360 degree sea view. Though it is quite a small boat house but the ingenuity and enthusiasm portrayed by Wong is admirable.
