独立可拆分漂浮建筑 避免房产争夺战
With divorce rates steadily increasing, some newlyweds are drawing up prenuptial agreements before tying the knot.
随着离婚率的逐步攀升，一些好事将近的情侣会在喜结连理前拟定婚前协议书。
But one firm has set out to help divorcees avoid a real estate battle with a new design that easily splits the home in two - and lets them sail away from each other.
Called Prenuptial Housing, this floating house consists of two independent structures that separate if the couple should split up, resulting in two equal units that can float away from each other.
'The units are initially (pre)fabricated as independent carbon fiber units for which we designed a simple solid connecting system; detaching this system means unlocking the connection and requires no unique tools,' Xander den Duijn with Studio OBA, the design firm behind Prenuptial Housing, told DailyMail.com in an email.
'The units should (dis)connect without much effort. Though this is part of the design that is still under development.'
The idea for the 'break up' home was conceived by Omar Kbiri, co-founder of Maak, who had the revelation while looking for a new home with his girlfriend.
'With the increasing number of divorces each year, our concept is – regrettably – becoming more and more relevant,' said Kbiri, who is also a self-proclaimed PR and pop culture expert.
'With this concept you namely don't need to relocate after a break-up.'
