Water Building Resort is a concept by Orlando De Urrutia that uses the newest technology to mesh leisure with one of the most basic necessities of life.  As far as I understand it, using a technology called TeexMicron, air passes through the resort’s façade, and is then pushed through a process that produces drinkable water.  The process also appears to create a kind of wind turbine-effect, using the air’s movement to produce electricity.  The Water Building Resort also is covered with glass photovoltaic panels, and shaped like a giant water droplet.  It would house an aquarium, a center for technological investigation, conference rooms, restaurants, spa services, and a hotel.
