With outdoor-meets-indoor details like the [astroturf courtyard](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/patio-house-residence) and patio-like furnishings, this is one must-see nature-infused family home. The stretched out deck provides guests and residents a million dollar view with plush accommodations to match. Whether it's enjoying a casual brunch in the outdoor dining room or sipping on mojitos in the cabana, this striking sanctuary is nothing short of spectacular. Even if the weather isn't top notch, inhabitants can sit back in the indoor grass-laden atrium. Despite its clean-cut aesthetics, organic materials like wood and iron add the much needed character to this contemporary pad. Brimming in scenic details, the SAOTA and Antoni Associates 'Victoria 73' House is architecturally ravishing. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.9/10 - Popularity: 85% | Activity: 55% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Africa ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Seaside Living:** Opportunities for architects and home builders to blend indoor and outdoor living in creative new ways, utilizing materials that add character to contemporary designs. - **Nature-infused Design:** Creating homes that seamlessly integrate the lushness of the outdoors through the use of organic materials and innovative design that can connect the homeowner to the outdoors. - **View-centric Design:** Designing homes that focus on providing breathtaking views of nature in order to create a feeling of serenity and peace for its inhabitants. ### Where This Applies - **Architecture:** The architecture industry can leverage materials and design elements to create relaxed and seamless design practices for homes and buildings that take advantage of stunning outdoor views. - **Real Estate:** The real estate market can market these nature-infused homes, emphasizing scenic detail and view-centric design to create a serene living experience. - **Home Furnishings:** Opportunities for the home furnishings industry to design innovative indoor-outdoor furniture and decor that complements the nature-infused design. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Coastal View Island Residences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cape-drive-residence.md) - [Cliffside Minimalist Retreats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aip-azia-villa.md) - [Off-Grid Oceanside Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/campos-studio.md) - [Beach-Overlooking Picturesque Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/villa-a.md) - [Light-Filled Open Beach Houses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/big-sky-beach-house.md) - [Meadow-Overlooking Sleek Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/studioac-1.md) - [Thick-Walled Coastal Buildings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hytte-riverview.md) - [Seaside Home Renovation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/casa-de-praia.md) - [Coastal Lookout Residences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/casa-tejo.md)
