Designs for a hybrid blimp merging yacht and airship elements have been unveiled. Created by Design4Future, it offers a floating apartment beneath a massive balloon. The team envisions an agile “sky yacht” with airship elegance and modern speed. Inside, the Air Cube boasts amenities comparable to high-end hotels. A skylight over the spacious bedroom offers stunning stargazing views by night and floods the space with natural light during the day. The cabin includes a lounge, dining area, and modern amenities for a unique travel experience. At the front, the captain's wheelhouse doubles as an observatory deck, giving travellers panoramic views, whether navigating through water or air. A skylight in the bedroom enhances stargazing, while communal spaces invite relaxation. Still in concept, the Air Cube prioritises comfort and leisure, with ongoing work on propulsion systems.
