# Triangular Villas Leo Qbarsdebo's Design is Made Out of Old Puzzle Factory Pieces By Meghan Young | Published 2015-10-29 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/leo-qbarsdebo References: [fastcodesign](http://www.fastcodesign.com/3052805/the-best-triangle-house-since-the-pyramids) & [leoqvarsebo.se](http://www.leoqvarsebo.se/) One of Leo Qbarsdebo's latest architectural designs is impressive for a number of reasons. Namely, it takes on an [unusual triangular shape](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lady-raval) that rivals that of the pyramids -- at least when it comes to a liveable space -- and it is also made out of unusual materials: pieces of an old puzzle factory. Located in [rural Sweden](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/villa-ottsj), Leo Qbarsdebo's triangle villa not only adds to the gorgeous landscape, it provides unobstructed views of the natural surroundings. Interestingly, although not near many trees, Leo Qbarsdebo considers the design a "treehouse for adults." [Fast Co Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aluminum-outdoor-furniture) writes, "As such, there's a rope connected to the peak of the roof, so he and his kids can scale the facade. Even inside, though, climbing the home's central staircase is meant to feel like a treehouse." ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.3/10 - Popularity: 86% | Activity: 35% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Architecture](https://www.trendhunter.com/architecture) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Unconventional Architecture:** The use of unusual materials and shapes for living spaces is an opportunity for disruptive innovation in the architecture industry. - **Nature-inspired Design:** Taking inspiration from nature and incorporating it into design, such as creating a 'treehouse for adults', has potential for innovation in the design industry. - **Sustainable and Upcycled Design:** The use of reclaimed materials, such as in the case of repurposing puzzle factory pieces, presents an opportunity for disruptive innovation in sustainable design. ### Where This Applies - **Architecture:** The design and construction of unconventional living spaces with unique and sustainable materials presents an opportunity for disruptive innovation in the architecture industry. - **Design:** The use of nature-inspiration and upcycled materials presents an opportunity for disruptive innovation in the design industry. - **Sustainability:** Innovative approaches to sustainability, such as upcycling and reclaiming materials, present an opportunity for disruptive innovation in the sustainability industry. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Geometric Structural Forest Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/c-house.md) - [Trapezoidal Concrete Forest Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ksa-studen.md) - [Sustainable Cubic Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/appels-architekten.md) - [Geometric African Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/great-primary-shapes.md) - [Pyramid-Like Suburban Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oza-sabbeth-architects.md) - [Triangular Lot-Based Narrow Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oxford-triangle.md) - [Geometric Structural Dynamic Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pentagone-house.md) - [Gabled Split Trapezoidal Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/casa-trapzios.md) - [Vaulted Structural Telescopic Treehouse](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/artistree-home.md)
