# Cubic Cliffside Shacks The Panorama and WMR Home in Chile Sits Atop a Mountain By Summer Luu | Published 2011-04-10 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/panorama-and-wmr References: [archdaily](http://www.archdaily.com/125527/house-d-panorama-wmr/) & [panoramaarquitectos](http://www.panoramaarquitectos.com/) The [Panorama](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/panorama-outdoor) and WMR Home is located in beautiful Matanzas, Chile. It's a shacklike house that sits at the top of a cliff approximately 65 meters above sea level. This endearing home built by the two architectural firms was for a couple and their son. The two-story home offers a lot of space, but is still cozy and intimate enough for the small family. And speaking of space, the landscape surrounding the home definitely gives this family space to grow. To take advantage of the breathtaking view on top of the mountain, there are plenty of floor-to-ceiling windows. There is also a side terrace facing north, allowing an enclosed outdoor escape to the panoramic views of the beach, forest and ocean. I would kill to live in this Panorama and WMR Home on such a stunning cliffside. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.4/10 - Popularity: 50% | Activity: 13% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Cliffside Architecture:** Opportunity to create unique and visually appealing homes in unconventional locations. - **Intimate Family Homes:** Opportunity to design smaller homes that optimize space and foster familial relationships. - **Floor-to-ceiling Windows:** Opportunity to incorporate large windows that provide panoramic views and allow natural light to flood the interiors. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Architecture:** Innovation in design and location selection to create unique and functional homes. - **Real Estate:** Opportunity to market and sell homes with unique features and unconventional locations. - **Construction:** Innovation in building techniques and materials to construct sturdy homes in unconventional locations. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Off-Grid Oceanside Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/campos-studio.md) - [Surrounding-Inspired Architectural Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/casa-rwo.md) - [Mountaintop Cantilevered Residences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/levitae-house.md) - [Coastal Holiday Beach Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/casa-ferran.md) - [Cantilevered Mountain Residences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brutal-honesty.md) - [Oak Wood-Clad Residences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/palo-quemado.md) - [Mountain Family Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skyview-house.md) - [Dramatic Clifftop Retreats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/casa-yuri.md) - [Dockside Coastal Beach Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/prat-house.md)
