Designed by Ian Ugarte in collaboration with architect Drew Heath, this tiny house boat, named the Arkiboat, was designed to be strong and lightweight, designed for a life at sea with open views to the surrounding environment, all with an architectural edge.

It can be moored either on a swing mooring, or at a marina and is completely self contained with all the normal holding tanks.It’s also completely off-the-grid, generating it’s power from a solar system on the roof and capitalising on Australia’s high sunshine hours.
The living spaces are all designed to fully capitalise on the incredible surrounding views and both the living room and the master bedroom have been designed to enable them to completely open up to the elements on a nice day, but also be fully enclosed should the weather turn.
