This installation/hotel is sort of incredible — a project of Artangel and Living Architecture, the organization started by Alain de Botton, this one room, two person boat shaped (also called A Room for London) sits a rooftop above the Thames. And if all that rust looks familiar to you, it might be because the boat is inspired by (and named after) the steamer Joseph Conrad helmed in the Congo, and later immortalized in Heart of Darkness. Just watch out for arrows.
