# All-White Summer Homes The Dacha’s Origami by Peter Kostelov Construction is Minimalist By Alexandra Serrano | Published 2012-10-04 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dachas-origami-by-peter-kostelov References: [dezeen](http://www.dezeen.com/2012/10/02/dachas-origam-by-peter-kostelov/) & [kostelov.ru](http://www.kostelov.ru/) Boasting a decidedly all-white palette, the Dacha’s Origami by Peter Kostelov is multi-functional. Created for a Russian TV show, this structure granted the architect complete creative freedom. The show's premise is that the designer and client meet once to discuss the construction, and then the project is unveiled to create drama. In this particular case, the customers asked that their [summer house](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sommarhus-e) incorporate a barbecue, sunbathing facilities, space for sporting and parties. The result was this ultra modern construction that boasts an [open concept design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/openfield-house) of compartments. Though this construction is open to the elements, it is complex in its cubicle placement to create shelter when necessary.
