3D Challenge #004 - Deep sea residence


Note: Please read the guidelines for participating in the challenge. The purpose of the challenge is to have fun and bring SketchUp users together and help each other learn and get better at using our favorite 3d modeling program. We will remove comments that are objectionable or offensive.

This week's challenge:

Deep sea residence

The planet earth consists for 2/3 of water and for only 1/3 of land. Instead of searching for living space on other planets, this time we try to use that part of earth under water. The challenge this week is to create a residence that makes it possible to live under water. Your choice is to create a structure for 1 person, a family or for lot's of habitants. How would the structure deal with the pressure, how would you get there, can it be moved or is it fixed to the ocean floor? As time for the challenge is short only the exterior is required, creating an interior is optional if you have time enough.

Good luck!
