You may want to hold off if you are thinking of planning your next luxury cruise. Seymourpowell, leading design and innovation company brings us a visionary transportaion concept, Aircruise, or "Clipper in the Clouds" is a giant vertical airship powered by natural energy and designed to carry travelers in style and luxury. The Aircruise started as a self-generated project, a vision inspired by Korean giant, Samsung C & T and their interest in new building materials. The concept design is for a hotel in the sky with low passenger numbers and huge internal spaces offering room for living, dining and relaxing as well as "scope for dramatic and inspirational public spaces."
The initial design proposes a bar/lounge zone, four duplex apartments, a penthouse adn five smaller apartments. At 3 miles high, the giant airship features glass floors to feature breathtaking views from the sky.
Powered by hydrogen fuel cells and solar energy, this truly eco-conscious luxury airship will emit zero-emissions while cruising at up to 90 mph. In other words, it will take you from New York to London in 37 hours...without poisoning the fish. Hopes are high for realizing this dreamboat by 2015.
