> Architects say the Ark's shell-like construction of arches and cables evenly distribute weight so it is also invulnerable to earthquakes.
> The design uses solar panels and a rainwater collection system to provide
inhabitants with power and water.
> The greenhouse-like environment also provides for lush vegetation to help with air quality and provide food sources.
> Because of the see-through structure enough daylight is filtered through internal rooms to reduce the need for lighting.
> And to ensure quality of light, the frame is protected with a self-cleaning layer.
