An artificial intelligence-designed museum is hoping its message of environmental consciousness and sustainability will compel institutions and citizens worldwide to take urgent action on climate breakdown.

The Floating Glass Museum is spearheaded by Italian architectural firm Luca Curci Architects, along with their international colleagues, and is designed to blur the line between art and nature.

Made with Venetian glass, the project hopes to combine the legacy of glassmaking with modern experimentation methods. The structure will be designed to float on water as sea level rise becomes a pressing reality with each passing year.

A survey published by the Climate and Atmospheric Science research journal in 2020 suggested coastal cities should prepare for rising sea levels that could reach as high as 5m by 2300. Increasing ocean temperatures also affect the lives and habitats of marine species and ecosystems.

Renderings of the museum show a spectrum of glass hues ranging from pink to orange, reminiscent of undulating hills. Inside the 3,800 square feet space, visitors will encounter a curated display of paintings, glass art installations and mid-century modern furniture.

The project will be completed later this year and presented in several cities affected by climate change like Dubai, New York, Hong Kong, Singapore and Busan.
