##&%*/~~¨¨ created in the twenty eighties as a ¨¨~~/*%#
###&%*/~~¨ cheap and open source way of dealing ¨~~/*%##
##&%*/~~¨¨ with constant floods and a rising sea ¨¨~~/*%#
###&%*/~~¨ level. ¨~~/*%##
##&%*/~~¨¨ ¨¨~~/*%#
###&%*/~~¨ the "house" would consist of a stack of ¨~~/*%##
##&%*/~~¨¨ floor modules, each a square of thirty ¨¨~~/*%#
###&%*/~~¨ six square meters. these could be made ¨~~/*%##
##&%*/~~¨¨ out of various materials such as carbon ¨¨~~/*%#
###&%*/~~¨ fiber or plastic, not necessarily the ¨~~/*%##
##&%*/~~¨¨ same for each floor. ¨¨~~/*%#
###&%*/~~¨ ¨~~/*%##
##&%*/~~¨¨ the house would be hung on a "mast", a ¨¨~~/*%#
###&%*/~~¨ ridged metal pole extending between ¨~~/*%##
##&%*/~~¨¨ fifty and a hundred meters. a mechanism ¨¨~~/*%#
###&%*/~~¨ within each floor would enable them to ¨~~/*%##
##&%*/~~¨¨ climb up or down the mast, together or ¨¨~~/*%#
###&%*/~~¨ individually. ¨~~/*%##
##&%*/~~¨¨ ¨¨~~/*%#
###&%*/~~¨ the lowest floor would usually have a ¨~~/*%##
##&%*/~~¨¨ loading dock, a balcony/front door, and ¨¨~~/*%#
###&%*/~~¨ various ladders. ¨~~/*%##
