Loup de Mer by Espen E. Erikstad » Yanko Design

Description

Now I know that houseboats are a specialty of Amsterdam , but designer Espen Erikstad thinks otherwise. He feels that something like the Loup de Mer is what Oslo needs and that too for the student community. Ha! I can picture all the boys and girls getting all studious and cramming for their term papers over a round of fish and chips! I don’t buy this story one bit

For an individual unit, the concept of this houseboat looks pretty neat and spacious.

It’s a duplex with ample living quarters and a colony of them co-exiting till the holiday season sets in.

For a student accommodation, it looks very extravagant.

For a globetrotter like me, I would love to spend some time on this!!
