Leave it to Australian architects at Peddle Thorp to prove that houseboat architecture has come a long way. They're calling this starship-like floating exhibition space "Fluid," and once it's done showing off its beauty at the 2012 World Expo in Yeosu, South Korea, it'll be unmoored from its dock and floated to other Asian cities.

Check out the gallery below, and you'll notice that its interior is even more magnificent than its exterior, taking the theme of a whale to the extreme. We love floating buildings. Bring this beauty to the states!
