Snøhetta architectural firm has designed Europe’s first underwater restaurant on the southern Norwegian shoreline. Called "Under" (which also means "wonder" in Norwegian), it will rest directly on the sea bed five meters below the water’s surface and is built to withstand pressure and shock from the rugged sea conditions.
