The new project, is shaped like a turtle and will accommodate up to 60,000 people. On completion, Pangeos will become the largest floating structure ever built.
Proposed and designed by Italian design studio Lazzarini, Pangeos “takes its name from Pangea, the supercontinent that existed millions of years ago during the late Paleozoic and early Mesozoic eras.”
Lazzarini added: “Translating this into a somewhat futuristic expression, Pangeos extends its length for 550m and measures 610m at its widest point — the wings. If realised, the turtle-shaped vessel will become the world’s largest structure ever built.”
The floating yacht will see 19 villas and 64 apartments on each ‘wing’ of the turtle-shaped terayacht. While the interiors of Pangeos are yet to be revealed, Lazzarini expects $8bn to be invested in construction, with a timeline of eight years.
