The Japanese studio, mA-style Architects has created a geometric home extension that puts a modern twist on a traditional Japanese house. Although a great design touch, this extension is meant to be more practical than anything else. It offers a private retreat for a young couple living with their extended family.
Made primarily out of plywood, the geometric home extension is connected to the main house by a narrow passageway that cuts through the garden. Forming a sharp triangle, which rests above a stark white rectangle, the interior is as minimalist as the exterior. Yet its lofty V-shaped roof provides an airy space inside that is comfortable and inviting. The couple will never want to leave the geometric home extension.

What Makes This Trend Stand Out
- Geometric Home Design
- Opportunity to innovate and create modernist interpretations of traditional house designs.
- Minimalist Architecture
- Opportunity to design simple yet elegant spaces that utilize negative space and basic color schemes.
- Private Retreat Spaces
- Opportunity to create living spaces that offer privacy in a shared living situation.
Sectors Adopting This
- Architecture
- Industry that can benefit from implementing minimalist and geometric designs to house structures.
- Construction
- Industry that can integrate the use of plywood for building, which is cost-effective and practical.
- Real Estate
- Industry that can market modernist and private retreat living spaces to young couples living with their extended family.
