The new 300-foot (91.5 meter) Infintas superyacht has been designed by E. Kevin Schopfer with Sparkman Stephens, Naval Architects.
While the Oculus was inspired by an oceanic fish, the Infintas draws inspiration from the infinity symbol, which is highlighted within the yacht’s elevation.

Italian company Kos presented new concept of in-house pool named Faraway Pool.
Guaranteed to add a unique, inviting touch to any home, the Faraway Pool can be built in to the floor.
The pool is always in level with the floor and the water doesn’t overflow, thanks to the ground-level fissure that doubles the pool’s outline.

The highly anticipated Joule hotel opened in Dallas in May and hotel guests will have the chance to check out the amazing opportunity to swim in the pool ! but this is no ordinary rooftop pool! With this new attraction, the hotel went above and beyond… literally.
The pool extends beyond the building, out over the sidewalk above the 1500 block of Main Street! This infinity-edge pool will not only provide guests with a refreshing place to cool off and relax, but it is also another eye treat adding to the cutting edge excitement downtown.
Passers-by below can see swimmers, plus a nighttime light show from the 132 fiber optic lights in the pool.
Hotel owner Tim Headington, declined to say how much the project cost.
Rooms at the Joule, which is part of Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide LLC’s Luxury Collection, start at $380 a night, with the 20th-floor penthouse rising to $5,000.
