Mima, a House that changes in seconds Posted: 22 Feb 2015 03:41 AM PST When the Mima architects study professionals decided to create a home that respond to the needs of today’s society, they not imagined that the result would be so versatile. The House spoils, projected in 2011, is in Viana do Castelo (Portugal), and is the answer to how architecture can adapt to different situations requiring us an ever changing lifestyle. It’s a construction of 36 square meters, flexible and cheap, but quality, and which boasts a clean and nice design. A building light and open space, inspired by the traditional Japanese House. To build it used prefabricated materials, which are the secret of the rapid construction and its low cost. It is a square structure fully glazed, transparent, but that can be divided into different spaces using panels of plywood are placed inside to change spaces. Precisely in this aspect is where originality and versatility of the House spoils. Thus, a space divided by panels can become an instant in an open space, and vice versa. That also happens abroad, in such a way that we can turn any window into a wall in a matter of seconds. A curious fact: as each side of the internal and external walls may have a color and a different finish, is easy to change interior design of the House. You just have to turn the panels… and you’re done! The post Mima, a House that changes in seconds appeared first on Belleinterior.
