Trusting Open-Concept Architecture

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Casa Seta by Martin Dulanto is Open to the Public

— May 13, 2014 — Art & Design
While many have heard the idea of "open-concept architecture," Martin Dulanto takes this to the next level by allowing the living area of the Casa Seta House spill out into the public domain.

The house is geometric and modern, and in the photos it appears as if there aren't any walls or windows to block off the living room from the outside world. Considering the place is located in Peru, the owners don't have to worry too much about cold weather. In fact, an open concept is probably much welcome to encourage a breeze through the house.

Clearly the neighbourhood is quite trusting, as this open concept takes the idea to a whole new realm of trusting.
Trend Themes
1. Public Open-concept Architecture - Architects can create more spaces that are not only open to the public but also incorporate public spaces as part of its design, transforming traditional architecture into a more inclusive space.
2. Blurring Boundaries - Designers can challenge themselves to create spaces with fewer physical barriers, bringing indoor and outdoor spaces together to create a more seamless integration of living space.
3. Community Living - The trend for open-concept spaces can foster a sense of community living, inspiring architects and designers to create more shared living spaces, where barriers between neighbors are minimal.
Industry Implications
1. Architecture - Open-concept architecture is a disruptive innovation opportunity for the architecture industry as they can completely reimagine traditional architecture to create more inclusive spaces that blur the boundary between public and private areas.
2. Real Estate - Open-concept architecture can revolutionize the real estate industry as it opens up the possibility for more unconventional housing solutions such as co-living spaces, which cater to a more communal living style.
3. Interior Design - Open-concept architecture provides interior designers with a new set of challenges and opportunities to create unique and modern living spaces that maximize natural lighting and indoor-outdoor living synergy.
