Kairu House is a unique housebarge and floating home designed and built by REKSTUR. The home has served as a lab for collaborations with local artisans and for experimentation in amphibious and sustainable living, in response to the threat of sea level rise to coastlines and regular flooding on the Rockaway peninsula and the affordable housing crisis in New York City. (Raiku)

Kairu is a Japanese word that means “frog”—apt for the couple’s amphibious home in the Rockaways. (Architectural Digest)
