空瓶 天堂岛

买不起自己的热带小岛?像 Richie Sowa 一样自己建一个吧!右图是该同学建的第二个人工岛了,位于墨西哥。他的处男岛叫 Spiral Island,去年毁于一场飓风。Richie 同学小岛的不凡之处在于:整个岛是飘在水上的,其浮力来自超过二十五万个空瓶子;岛上有整片的红树林,用来遮挡阳光和窥探者的目光…… Richie 的终极目标是不断的扩建该岛,直到有一天可以漂到海上去……

If you can’t afford to buy your own tropical island paradise, why not build your own? That is exactly what Richie Sowa did back in 1998, from over a quarter-million plastic bottles. His Spiral Island, destroyed years later by a hurricane, sported a two-story house, solar oven, self-composting toilet and multiple beaches. Better yet, he has started building another one! His ultimate goal? To build the island bigger and bigger and finally float out to sea, traveling the world from the comfort of his own private paradise.

The original Spiral Island was (as its successor will be) built upon a floating collection used plastic bottles, all netted together to support a bamboo and plywood structure above. Located in Mexico, the original was 66 by 54 feet and was able to support full-sized mangroves to provide shade and privacy, yet also able to be moved from place to place by its creator as need with a simple motorized system.

红树林,好奇怪.我就在深圳看过,只知道它们有根植于水下,枝叶探在空气里.可没见过还能搬家的....
