The Ark hotel project was designed by Russian firm Remi-studio with the assistance of the International Union of Architects' program Architecturefor Disasters Relief. The dome-shaped hotel is constructed with wooden arches, steel cables and a ''self-cleaning'' plastic layer instead ofglass. The slinky-like Ark hotel can be adapted to suit both landand water. It is built to stay afloat in the event of floods or rising seas. The 14,000 square meter shell-like construction of arches and cables distributes the weight evenly, meaning it can withstand earthquakes. Daylight is filtered through to internal rooms due to the hotel's see-through structure, reducing the need for lighting.
It is designed ''an integrated energy system with an uninterpretable power supply using alternative energy sources'', the hotel uses solar panels and a rainwater collection system to provide inhabitants with power and water. It would be built around a central pillar connecting to roof-top wind generators and heat pumps, as well as to energy storage and thermal conversion units below.There will also be a 'tornado' energy generating spiral at the top of the pillar.
