It’s a pretty cool concept
and there’s something about being underwater that’s pretty soothing and
relaxing. Now imagine if you could live in such a place permanently, is
that something you might be interested in? Well apparently that’s what
one Chinese company wants to find out. The China Communications
construction company has recently commissioned AT Design Office to plan a
four square mile underwater city.
We’re
sure some of you guys have been to places like the zoo where they might
have exhibits for underwater animals. Sometimes these exhibits have
been designed to make us feel like we’re underwater, and that the
animals are swimming above us, kind of like Singapore’s Underwater World.

The
idea is to use the same techniques that they are using to construct the
31 mile long bridge that connects Hong Kong, Macau and Zhuhai together.
While it does sound slightly impossible, architect Slavomir Siska
believes that this is entirely doable. As for that 31 mile bridge, that
project is coming to an end soon and is expected to be completed next
year, so if they can pull that off, perhaps this underwater city idea
might not be a stretch of the imagination.

The
construction company is currently in talks with a large Chinese
investor group where they are trying to figure out if this is an idea
worth pursuing. Perhaps from a novelty standpoint, and possibly an
architectural and engineering standpoint, this could be worth it, but
from a financial standpoint? That could be tricky.
We
reckon that trying to get people to move to the city could be
problematic, since we’re sure many will have fears and doubts of their
own. Secondly transportation could be an issue, unless they’re all
self-sufficient, but we guess that’s for the engineers and architects to
figure out, but in the meantime what do you guys think?
