# Cheesy Holey Homes The Swiss Cheese Home is Actually Located in Switzerland By Armida Ascano | Published 2010-09-23 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/swiss-cheese-home References: [dornob](http://dornob.com/swiss-cheese-house-luxury-hole-punch-home-in-switzerland/) & [philippestuebi.ch](http://www.philippestuebi.ch/) Dubbed the '[Swiss Cheese Home](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crest-guesthouse),' this box-shaped hole-cut abode is ironically located in Switzerland and unfortunately [not really made of cheese](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cheezit-holiday-house-kit). Bearing a striking resemblance to a block of Swiss cheese, this design by Philippe Stuebi is actually quite breathtaking. Boasting a killer view, [clean lines and beautifully rounded curves](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/house-anton-ii), the home is wonderful to look at and even better to live inside of. The holes on the 'Swiss Cheese Home' even serve a purpose, letting a great balance of natural and artificial light into the space. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.9/10 - Popularity: 53% | Activity: 27% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Architecture](https://www.trendhunter.com/architecture) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Sustainable Architecture:** Opportunity for incorporating sustainable design principles and renewable energy sources in the construction of unique homes. - **Biophilic Design:** Potential for integrating natural elements and green spaces into architectural designs to enhance well-being and connection with nature. - **Iconic Structures:** Opportunity to create visually striking buildings that stand out and become landmarks, attracting attention and tourism. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Architecture and Construction:** Opportunities for architects and construction companies to innovate in creating unique and visually captivating homes and structures. - **Tourism and Hospitality:** Potential to leverage iconic and visually striking buildings as tourist attractions, enhancing the tourism industry in a location. - **Green Building Technologies:** Opportunity to develop and implement sustainable building materials, energy-efficient systems, and smart technologies in architecture and construction projects. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Swiss Army Knife-Resembling Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crest-guesthouse.md) - [Stilts-Reading Suspended Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-hole-with-the-house-around.md) - [Communal Concrete Home Projects](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/house-c.md) - [Sustainable Cubic Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/appels-architekten.md) - [Holiday Mountain Village Chalets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/perfect-day-house.md) - [Geometric Cave-Like Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cavelike-homes.md) - [Economical Modular Wooden Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cake-house.md) - [Geometric Structural Forest Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/c-house.md) - [Cheese-Shaped Charcuterie Boards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-cheese-block-with-knife.md)
