THE DISAPPEARING WALLS ACT

Fewer walls and more multi-living spaces: This is the new mantra of luxury living. Open floor plans not only lend themselves to gathering and entertaining but to beautiful designs as well. Instead of walls defining spaces, design elements from subtle to dramatic are allowed to standout and interact with one another to distinguish spaces. Varied ceiling heights, beautiful lighting, strategic furniture arrangements, elegant area rugs, engaging wall materials and gorgeous floor designs can all take on the role of adding aesthetic and functional value as they define spaces.

With more design elements working together, these open living spaces offer increased aesthetic value and function while also encouraging togetherness, rather than separation. And in today’s digital world, most households could benefit from more human interaction and less time spent with technology.
