Floating buildings on a.....boat?

Okay so here we're going to take an exclusive look at some architecture on.....boats or should I say ships. Normally architecture is bounded to terra, or land - but for the ultra wealthy, they could afford to splurge on ultra luxury yachts that don't really classify as boats - they become ships. So I'm going to examine three different types and comment on their merits with regards to design.

Type 1:

 This is the Monaco inspired version emphasizes the classical architecture that dots the famous French city as well as making a reference to the classical runways that make up the classic Monaco on the slope at the side of the boat facing the viewer. Not only that, the tower in the middle of the ship serves as decoration as well as an operation center. But also, to finish off the the design, there are stylized pool as well as the roman roof tiles compliment the Mediterranean styling. However, of course, this kind of ship will cost a fortune and the engineering would also be quite prohibitive.

This one is a bit more modest, as this one tries to capture the spirit of outdoor decks on this particular ship - using trees as the inspiration. The clean wooden deck is clear testimony to this ideal as the ship looks to form a social area where people can mingle with each other - the staircases leading up to the deck is a clear indication of this area being the main social place - as it probably leads to the deck from the residential areas.

Ah, this one is intriguing as this one is a direct attempt at copying an island on a boat - to get the island experience on a ship complete with a volcano at the top and an "edge-less" pool at the front of the ship. This one is a clear Pacific influence, as the thatched huts and volcano shows - but like the two ships before it, this one implements trees to add to the authenticity of the the experience. Of course, this one is the second most elaborate of the different ships designs, but it offers a very streamlined design - the huts and the central building all seem to blend in very well with the rest of the ship. The "waterfall" from the volcano forms a nice waterfall in which the people on the porch of the "volcano" will be able to enjoy the view with the water flowing in front of them. Otherwise, this one is a great piece of design as leisure seekers will certainly look to enjoy a cruise on an "island" setting.
