Over the past few years, open-plan living has gone from a growing trend for homes to a new home mainstay.

For those who don’t know what it is, open-plan living is when you design the rooms in your home to be built with few to no dividing walls between certain areas.

So, if you are looking to build a new home, here a few way open-plan living could enhance it.

For starters, open-plan living would create a more sociable atmosphere in your home.

Say you were to be working in the kitchen and needed to talk to your spouse. Instead of having to yell or walk to the other room, you could simply stay in the kitchen and talk from there.

You would be able to have a discussion without walls interrupting or distorting your voice and you would be able to hear each other clearly.

Open-plan living is also good if your new home isn’t going to be very big.

Walls in smaller homes could prove restrictive and make you and your family, feel like they are closed in without much freedom to move around. No walls would make the home feel bigger and as the name implies, more open as well.

Another great aspect of open-plan living promotes indoor and outdoor living.

What this means is if you live in an area where the weather is moderate year round, you could design your kitchen to have no wall between it and your back yard.

This would give your home more natural light and make it feel like the yard and home are one in the same as well as that great fun feeling of eating outdoors.
