Every home needs to have the proper lighting. When the sun comes down, the natural light generously provided by the many windows will need an alternative source, and that will be a network of LED light strips. Lighting is of critical importance in every home. We tend to forget it until the fuse goes off […]
The SeaPod is a very futuristic-looking house, and it’s of course full of amazing technology, but there is still something old fashioned still required: a door. Well, our door is not exactly that old-fashion because of a few things. First, it’s custom-made and curved to fit the center dock entrance that we recently finished. Second, […]
Having a great view is what every homeowner is dreaming of, and there definitely won’t be any shortage of this when living on the SeaPod! Enough of imaging why we are doing this, let us show you what will be your backyard view! Obviously, the Pod’s localization will be of tremendous importance, but we are […]
Today, Grant is supervising the loading of the Pods appliances. That’s right, when it comes to that stage of the project, something feels like the end is near! But it’s going to be a major operation. If you lived in an apartment, chances are that you bought appliances for you to have all the convenience […]
A few days ago, it was “Party Time” for the Ocean Builders’ team as we were celebrating the launch of the SeaPod. I tell you what, it was needed and well deserved! We have been working so hard in the last few years, and very, very intensively in the past weeks, that we had to […]
Welcome inside our Seapod flagship model, as we are finishing work on the interior of the shell itself. We are really into a “might fit” time right now because there will be differences between this prototype and the production model. We are live from the Pod’s living room where we are putting the last touch […]
Early August, we were excited to announce our partnership with Fathom Ocean. Their expertise in marine research is worldwide known, and Ocean Builders is blessed to work with such experts in this field.Together, we aim to take marine research to the next level. Between our passion for discovery and our desire to create eco-friendly tourism […]
Ocean’s lifestyle is often a synonym of bridges. Ocean Builders’ SeaPods are no strangers to this as we will have 3 bridges connecting different areas of the Pod’s TriPod base.Today, we are installing the first rope bridge to be used to access the solar array mounted on the outriggers of the floating base. This is […]
The entrance of any home is often an undervalued area. But when you think about it, you use it everyday, and it’s the first thing your guests will see when visiting you. That’s why we are working on making the center dock pretty and safe.We already made a lot of progress in this area when […]
Grant is back at the factory to show us the foundation for the skylight cap that will be above the shower in the SeaPod. This will be the outer rim and the actual hatch will fit inside this circle.We have found a way to make this piece into a multi-use part that we can utilize […]
The actual living area of the Pod is lowered onto the center spar where it will be permanently mounted. Since the center spar needs to be smaller than the hole for it to fit, there is a small gap between the spar and the Pod that we don’t want to leave open. One option is […]
Since the SeaPods will be in the ocean, there is not a solid foundation that keeps the home permanently still. The ocean is an ever-changing environment and keeping things balanced in an ever-changing environment is a crucial part of keeping the home safe. Another factor about a floating home is that the weight will be […]
We are starting to narrow down our options for the materials and finishing that we will use for the tablet enclosures throughout the house.These enclosures will hold the tablets that are used to control all of the home automation features that the home has. The tablets will be permanently mounted to the wall but will […]
There are many reasons why we are building the SeaPods. Sustainable living, restoring the ecosystem, making the oceans habitable, and more. One of the most rewarding things and one of our biggest goals is to deliver the beautiful views that you can see in this short video.Grant is on the Pod and enjoying the view […]
Things are moving along nicely in the EcoPod as we get closer to the launch! The kitchen cabinets that we were working on recently are finally being installed in the Pod. As you can see, there is a ton of cabinet space in the kitchen, in fact, there is more storage space in the EcoPod […]
Grant is back inside the factory to give us a look at part of the process of building the Wazebo floor. Like a lot of aspects of the Pods, these floor sections are made out of fiberglass that is formed in molds. The mold makes one-quarter of the floor at a time and since the […]
Grant is back on the EcoPod to give us a quick look at the living room cabinets and how they will be laid out. Storage space is always a problem in small homes so we wanted to make sure that this wouldn’t be a sacrifice that you have to make to live on the water. […]
Picture this, you and your team of hard-working people united by their passion for a shared vision organize a million-dollar grand opening event. A two-day event, ripe with sciences, engineering, and lots of technology. Day One — a smashing success — we hosted over 300 people from all over the world, in the renowned Panama […]
We are getting the flashing installed on the center dock. We made 8 of these fiberglass pieces that will go around the entire circumference of the dock. We had to measure and then drill holes in the flashing so that it would slide over the posts for the railing.The purpose of the flashing is to […]
