We all know how imaginatively inspiring cardboard boxes are for little children, so I don’t think we really have to wonder whether or not these water tank palaces would have the same effect.
Designed by ART D’ECO from the ingenious brainchild Katell Gelebart, the water tank palaces were crafted out of—you guessed it—water tanks! Discarded while constructing the Dune eco resort in India, she saw them and was instantly struck with the idea. Kudos to Gelebart.
