English term

'land-based'

English to Spanish Other Architecture land-based architecture/water-based architecture
Hello all- I am looking for a precise word, describing a 'land-based' architecture in spanish (this term is used in contraposition to water-based architecture), I have a text refering to yachts production, they want to stress the the yachts look alike 'land-based' architecture.

What's the most natural/commonly used expression?

I have found: 'en tierra' but seems like it refers to the buildings actually made of soil, on the other hand the concept " arquitectura basada en la tierra' seems a bit unnatural, please help me,

thanks

Katy
