Live Freely: Stunningly Modern Floating House by Dymitr Malcew

What do you do when your love for water and the need for creative housing collide? You build a Floating House. Singapore-based architect Dymitr Malcew designed a highly contemporary water home for French developer H2ORIZON which specializes in floating structures. Imagining an almost see-through residential structure based on the privacy given by its water-based location, the architect and designer visually connected the interiors to the surroundings.

A simple box-like structure surrounded by a deck seems to be all you need when living on water. A floating platform shapes the base of the house, allowing this modern construction to be moved around from location to location. This flexibility ensures the home can be safely docked at marinas or piers and its inhabitants can live freely on water while enjoying the best of modern comfort.

Inside the luxury £80,000 per week Courchevel ski chalet

With an elegant spiral staircase, chic pale decor, roaring log fires and spectacular mountain views, Chalet Eidelweiss in +Courchevel is the epitome of alpine chic.

But you'll need to be a billionaire to afford it - the luxury holiday home in the exclusive French resort of +Courchevel costs an eye-watering £80,000 to hire for just one week.

So what do you get for your money? Along with eight bedrooms, each of which has been individually decorated, the seven-floor chalet boasts two massage rooms, a hammam and a library bulging with books.

For those in search of more high octane pursuits, the chalet boasts its very own nightclub, complete with vast sofas, a conveniently located indoor hot tub, a private dance floor and a fully stocked bar.

Sportier guests can take advantage of Chalet Eidelweiss' indoor swimming pool, hot tub and gym or take to the slopes - located on the doorstep - with the chalet's resident ski instructor.

Although +Courchevel, long a jetset favourite, has no shortage of Michelin starred restaurants, the chalet also comes with a full complement of staff, including two personal chefs ready to rustle up your favourite food - and two butlers to serve it.

For those who fancy a trip down to the village, there's a personal chauffeur and a concierge to arrange activities, while for those who'd rather relax, the chalet boasts a private massage therapist.

Explaining why the chalet is worth the outlay, Rupert Longsdon, founder and director of the Oxford Ski Company which markets the palatial bolthole said: 'It's not every day one has the opportunity to stay in the best private home in what is arguably the best ski resort in the Alps.

'You can't rent Buckingham Palace but you can rent Chalet Edelweiss in +Courchevel 1850. You could, of course, stay in one of the many first class five star hotels in this resort, but one can stay in hotels all over the world.

'Booking a private chalet for a holiday is like owning you own chalet in the Alps for a week. What's more, chalets like Edelweiss come fully serviced and catered to a seriously high standard.

'Think Downtown Abbey style service - you will want for nothing. Chalet holidays are a rare treat where you can be spoil t rotten and enjoy the privacy with your friends and family around you - that is if you can find to them in Edelweiss between the swimming pool, spa, cinema, games rooms or night club.'

Location:

Located in the spectacular Trois Vallées region of France, +Courchevel is the name given to four interconnected villages; Courchevel 1300 (Le Praz), Courchevel 1550, Courchevel 1650 (Moriond), and Courchevel 1850.

Of the four, +Courchevel 1850, the highest of the villages, is the most exclusive and as a result, has become a mecca for A-listers, royals and well-heeled travellers alike.

With more five star hotels than Paris, two ultra-exclusive 'six star' boltholes and no fewer than 11 Michelin starred restaurants, it's no surprise that fans such as Victoria Beckham, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, Cameron Diaz and Zinedine Zidane just can't stay away.

For those who can't quite stretch to a weekend in +Courchevel, the nearby resorts of Val d'Isère and Méribel are good alternatives, while across the border in Switzerland, Verbier and Zermatt both offer perfect pistes with the chance of a celebrity sighting.
