The truly innovative part of the home is the building material--[fiberglass concrete walls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/binocular-house), from a company called [Rieder](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/van-b), are both highly insulating and visually modern. The EFH Peneder house was photographed by Angelo Kaunat. Rieder is an Austrian manufacturer, and the use of their [new building materials](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/limestone-house) is growing. Check out the gallery to see how LP Architektur put the materials to use. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.5/10 - Popularity: 39% | Activity: 27% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Fiberglass Concrete Walls:** The use of highly insulating and visually modern fiberglass concrete walls creates disruptive innovation opportunities for sustainable construction projects. - **Open Space Design:** The emphasis on open space in architecture provides disruptive innovation opportunities for creating versatile living environments that promote well-being and comfort. - **Innovative Building Materials:** The use of innovative building materials, like fiberglass concrete walls, opens up disruptive innovation opportunities for architects and builders to design structures that are both aesthetically pleasing and functional. ### Who This Affects Most - **Construction:** The construction industry can leverage the use of fiberglass concrete walls to create energy-efficient buildings and embrace sustainable practices. - **Architectural Design:** Architects can explore open space designs to create innovative and flexible living spaces that cater to changing lifestyles and promote a sense of community and well-being. - **Building Materials Manufacturing:** Manufacturers in the building materials industry can capitalize on the demand for innovative materials by developing and producing sustainable and visually appealing options like fiberglass concrete walls. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Preserved Townhome Concrete Facades](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rieder.md) - [Sleek Modular German Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/house-anton-ii.md) - [Curved Translucent Experimental Apartments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sculptors-apartment.md) - [Residential Mountain Retreats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/avber-house.md) - [Concrete-Glass Contrasting Pavilions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jenny-peysin-architecture.md) - [Reinforced Concrete Housing Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/residenza-carsg.md) - [Modern Highland Residential Projects](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/house-in-the-andes.md) - [Simple Material Family Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/openfield-house.md) - [Trapezoidal Concrete Forest Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ksa-studen.md)
