Eccentric Box Houses

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

This Box House Has Huge Windows That Show Amazing Panoramic Views

— May 11, 2016 — Art & Design
This box house is designed by New Wave Architecture and is located in the Iran capital, Tehran. The 'Mosha House' is composed of a trio of irregular boxes that feature large windows facing contrasting directions. With this, the house is made to provide residents with a series of different panoramic views.

Built into a steep hill, the box house appears to poke out of the earth in an alluring yet completely unnatural way. Painted in a stark white, the designers intended to ensure that the house stood out against its natural setting, claiming that "the aim was to create a sense of purity." Although the house appears rather small from the outside, it includes luxury features such as an indoor pool and a sauna.

Given the limited property size of the Mosha House, the team at New Wave Architecture used long rectangular shapes to grant more yard space. Space within is capitalized as well by using minimalist furniture and a spiral staircase that blends in with the light wood flooring.
Trend Themes
1. Box House Trend - There may be an opportunity to create more box-style houses with unique designs and large windows, capitalizing on panoramic views and minimalist design.
2. Eco-friendly Housing Trend - Using stark white paint to help a house stand out against its natural surroundings also creates an opportunity to market eco-friendly housing using similar design principles.
3. Luxury Tiny House Trend - Creating luxury features such as indoor pools and saunas in tiny houses may be an opportunity to provide individuals with a luxury living experience in limited space.
Industry Implications
1. Architecture Industry - The architecture industry can take advantage of designing and constructing unique, minimalist, and eco-friendly box-style houses with large windows and luxury features.
2. Real Estate Industry - The real estate industry can focus on marketing and selling unique box-style houses with panoramic views, luxury features, and a minimalist design aesthetic.
3. Home Improvement Industry - The home improvement industry can focus on providing minimalist furniture, eco-friendly materials, and luxury features like indoor pools and saunas for box-style houses.
