The Z-Triton from Latvian design studio Zeltini might be the perfect adventuring vehicle.
Designer Aigars Lauzis created a tiny home that's also a boat and tricycle, capable of traveling over land and water.
While the Z-triton isn't yet available to buy, Zeltini has plans to start renting out the vehicle by 2021.
The studio's mission to create sustainable products and prototypes that, along with being functional, are fun. This design, which looks a bit like an invention from Wes Anderson's The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou, fits the bill. Some of their past work is similarly inventive, like the Temple of Poop, a composting toilet that fertilizes its own roof garden.
Take a look.

The Z-Triton is designed as a tiny home, tricycle, and boat all in one.
Wheels fold up to take the vehicle from land to water.
One side is the front of a tricycle, with a bike seat for the driver. The back then becomes the front as it converts into a boat.
Some outlets have called it "a floating house on wheels."

The Z-triton is electrically powered, and from the control panel the driver can control power, turn signals, interior temperature, and more.
On land, it can be powered by cycling, with the option of electrical help.
It can travel up to 25 miles on land...
...or about 19 miles in the water.
According to Zeltini, it comfortably fits two people.
The inside is adjustable — bench seating can be moved to other locations, or removed to create a sleeping area, with extra storage built into the sides.
Both passengers can even sleep onboard, they just need sleeping bags.
There's also a tiny kitchen on board for preparing and storing food.
Blue and orange details continue throughout the interior and exterior.
The stylized orange "Z" is also the steering wheel.
The designers' dog, Kobe, tags along for the ride.
Zeltini says the Z-Triton is perfect for "expeditions around the world" or "a weekend getaway deep in nature."
In 2021, the Z-Triton will be available to rent for shorter excursions.
Zeltini will tell renters where to pick up the Z-Triton, and give them some route suggestions for the best trip.
Though tiny, every aspect of the design is detailed and thoughtful.
The roof even has a small plant for a final touch.
