The Hydra-Tesla research facility is a skyscraper that investigates the possibility of creating a power plant that uses hydrogen as source of energy. With an exoskeleton built from grapheme, the idea for the Hydra skyscraper is to harvest energy from lightning storms via electrolysis and store the power in several mega-batteries located at the base. The project also includes a research facility, housing, and recreational areas for scientists and their families.

Jensen & Skodvin Architects have come up with a small series of individual hotel structures called the Juvet Landscape Hotel located amongst the wilderness of Gudbrandsjuvet, Norway. Surrounded by mountains, a natural waterway, and plenty of folliage, each of these “hotel rooms” are like stilt homes with ceiling to floor windows. To state these hotels have a view to the outdoors would be an understatement.
