Designers Sandra Matthews and Michael Henderson have created a concept for a 224-metre-high spherical resort that would include a moon-like experience. Named Moon, the resort would consist of a spherical steel structure enclosing a hotel and the moon-surface attraction built on two of a three-storey circular podium. It will be a luxurious destination resort enabling guests to walk on the lunar surface while exploring an authentic lunar colony – space tourism for all!
The authors of the project expects that the resort will also serve for astronaut training and for global corporations and space agencies to showcase their technology. The idea is to open four resort: in North America, Europe, the Middle East and Asia. The first resort will probably be built in Dubai. The authors estimate that each resort will cost $5 billion to construct and would attract 10 million visitors a year.
