6Corona Save the Beach Hotel, Rome, Italy
Corona Save the Beach Hotel is the world’s first garbage hotel.
This hotel was built with 12 tons of trash, gathered from several beaches in Europe, and features only 3 rooms and 2 bathrooms.
Located on the banks of the Tiber, in Rome, Italy, Corona Save the Beach Hotel, designed by artist HA Schult, is more of a project, as its name suggests.
HA Schult declared: ‘Despite the ugly truth behind its main construction material, ranging from cans and car parts to socks and soccer balls, the hotel’s first patron is anything but hard on the eyes.
We have to change the world, before the world changes us!‘
Guess who had the honor to spend a night at Corona Save the Beach.
Danish supermodel Helena Christensen was the hotel’s inaugural guest when she spent a Friday night in one of the 3 rooms, and she noticed all the trash from the walls, some of them being ‘very personal objects’.
‘The objects make you really wonder what made a human being throw this away on a beach.’, Helena declared.
