Today's ArchiPic #106


Bubble Hotel from inhabitat.com by Attrap'Reves

    Today's ArchiPic is the Bubble Hotel in near Marseille, France.  Built by Bubbletree's, these transparent spheres are made out of (what looks like) plastic.  Attrap'Reves Hotel is not a regular hotel.  It's a bubble hotel that immerses the guest outdoors without really putting them "outdoors".  Designed by Pierre Stephane, he wanted to create an "exciting camping adventure" that included the campers with nature and doesn't have a bad affect on the environment.  At 109 Euros per night, the rooms are not cheap.  But if you are a kind of person that loves the outdoors but cannot stand camping outside in the open, this is for you.  You are totally surrounded by nature without actually being there.
