ZEDboats - london
ZEDfactory
has designed and built two prototype low cost
zero carbon floating river homes, the first zero carbon houseboats
designed for reasonably affordable suburban
living in the UK.
We believe this new typolology will become as representative of
the 21stCentury as the neo Tudor semi detached represented the
great expansion of many UK cities in the 1930's. This is how many
ordinary people will live as climate change accelerates.
We believe the ZED boats demonstrate an optimistic, viable urban and
suburban future set in a beautiful landscape, and that the sooner
communities plan to both reduce their carbon footprints and recognise
the imminent threat of all the CO2 already emitted by our
industrialised society - the more chance we have of avoiding
melodramatic disasters.
