Designed by the Italian architectural firm GZDG (Giancarlo Zema  Design Group, Amphibious 1000 is a semi-submerged resort project planed for a projected marine area on the coast of Qata.
 The resort will be divided into two sections of land and  sea and will feature residential buildings as well, offices, a central  marine park, floating waterways and underwater marine galleries that all  form a semi circle around a central tower that will host a panoramic  restaurant.
The resort would be like a large aquatic creature that  stretches right into the sea with the sea section featuring semi  emerged hotels resembling anchored superyachts. Each of these hotels  will have 75 luxury suites positioned around the perimeter of the  building with access to private terraces and underwater passageways with  views of the central marine park that connect the hotel rooms.
The  main lobby of the resort will be focused around an interactive sea life  museum featuring water exhibitions galleries, large aquariums and a  glass passageway leading to the underwater observatory. Guests could  travel around the resort in electric vehicles or could jump on board of  one of the 20 meter aluminum yachts with hydrogen engines and underwater  viewing globes.
Amphibious 1000 will also feature 80 floating  suites called “Jelly-fish” with underwater viewing decks looking upon an  artificial reef bed. A relaxation room will sit at the very top of the  suite at 5.6 meters above sea levels and at 3.5 meters above sea levels  the sleeping quarters and bathrooms will be. At 1.4 meters the area is  for daytime use with a kitchen and bathroom and heading below deck and  semi submerged at 0.8 above sea level the guest rooms and bathrooms will  be. At 3 meters below sea level guests could enjoy their own private  aquarium lounge.
The Italian architecture company Giancarlo Zema  Design Group is based in Rome and specializes in designing semi  submerged structures, houseboats and yachts.
