The ocean was just a highway to cross or a boundary to look at from a sandy beach. But as rising sea levels threaten to swallow our global coastlines, humanity is running out of solid ground—and instead of retreating, we are moving out onto the open water. In Episode 76, Thomas Rackers explores the breathtaking, high-stakes frontier of Amphibious Architecture. As we live through 2026, the world's first commercial floating cities are officially launching in places like South Korea and the Maldives.
