Kingsley architects have designed the SolarHome which is a step ahead of normal houseboats. I am sure many of you would like a relaxing weekend or even a week or a fortnight in one of these luxurious houseboats. The Solarhome is made of low-carbon material and is the best example of modern floating architecture.

The SolarHome is presently located in Lusatian Lakelands, germany. The SolarHomes use solar energy and can operate in two different modes. The Docked mode requires fresh water, power etc but the Self Sufficient Mode would operate without anything like these for about 6 to 12 months.

The Solar Home is equipped with all the modern amenities one might want and I must say it sure is going to be funner than hell. You really must contact the designers and enquire if they would be willing to design a customized SolarHome for you. There is no information about the price or availability whatsoever.

And the very mention of Veuve Clicquot again would make you bath in champagne but this time not in an isolated room rather on a cruise in open sky. Yes, if you failed to put your fingers upon Veuve Clicquot Night Clubber and the lavish Champagne that they produced to celebrate their 130th anniversary then here is another that you make you feel surely high. Against its earlier association with Karim Rashid for Globalight Cum Champagne Cooler, now Veuve Clicquot is in news for designing a cruise collection for luxury Italian boat designer RIVA. Jason Bruges Riva is the luxury speedboat company behind the iconic boats of the 60’s and the golden age of the Dolce Vita lifestyle. The design collaboration with Riva is for Veuve Clicquot’s top champagne (prestige cuvee) called La Grande Dame, and details two different accessories for Riva boats: a “made to order” piece and a limited edition one.

The “made to measure” cruise collection would cost $80,000 and includes 4 bottles of La Grande Dame 98, 2 magnums of La Grande Dame 88, 6 champagne flutes Riedel and 6 water tumblers, plates, table mats and cutlery. Another one is a limited edition cruiser bag with counted 300 pieces available and includes a bottle of La Grande Dame 98 and two champagne flutes. Expected to be available from July, it is priced at $425 and would be available at Veuve Clicquot.
All the pieces are made of mahogany, chrome and leather – and made by some of the world’s best craftsmen.
