At the origins of this incredible project, there is the dream of Jean-Michel Ducancelle, Naval architect, directly inspired by James Bond’s floating pod in "The Spy Who Loved Me" , 1977.
For 25 years, Jean-Michel has been wondering about how humans can inhabit the Earth. He passionately cultivates the idea that tomorrow’s habitat should be at the heart of natural environment in order to offer to all, a life in an immersive marine & submarine world. He envisions a way to apprehend the future differently, with a solution for the increasing reduced availability of construction on the coast and a new look at the floating habitat.
His decisive meeting with the visionary industrial Jacques-Antoine Cesbron, enabled the culmination of such years of patented research and innovation.
With the birth of Anthenea, the dream has become reality.
The Anthenea pod comes with an adjustable sunshade roof, solar panels, a panoramic bathtub, and over 7 feet of bedding diameter. The pod is 100% recyclable, while its design has been studied to resist cataclysms and the rise of oceans. Only running on solar power, the floating habitat features an energy sensor dome that meets the electrical and hot water needs. The Anthenea pod is equipped with certified black and gray water stations, and produces what it consumes, releasing clean water only. The manufacturer might want to look at ways of adapting the pod for permanent living, since we are all going to be floating in another 20 years or so...
