People love an open floor plan for their house because they forge the interiors with exteriors. These plans add a feeling of spaciousness to the same area, allow natural light to enter, and create a safe environment for social activities.

When the indoor and outdoor areas merge, you enjoy a different type of living space. Your new home can use this option with an advantage. We spell some of these advantages here.

We at 5 Star Builders provide excellent house designs, layouts and build solutions for homes to our clients across the region.

1. Bring in the Outdoors

Linking the outdoor area to the indoor area is often a part of building luxury homes. This enables opening the indoor space to a spacious outdoor veranda. A house with a veranda fetches higher sale value besides adding more space and providing a sheltered area.

Naturally, you also get protection from the sun and help reduce your air-conditioning costs. Designers suggest various ways to integrate the areas, such as the use of similar flooring for areas as well as sliding shoji screens or wall to ceiling glass doors. The expansive space is excellent as a relaxation or entertainment area.

2. Plenty of Natural Light

Integrating seamlessly indoor and outdoor spaces provides you a great benefit of filling the space with light as walls disappear. You can enjoy your garden view sitting inside the house through the glass windows.

3. Inviting Spaces

If you love to entertain guests, opening up the indoor space to outdoor space creates an excellent atmosphere for a party. You need not feel stuck to the kitchen area while cooking; enjoy fresh air and conversation with your guests. Your guests feel cozy and relaxed in an integrated indoor-outdoor space.  

4. Safety and Security

In a family with kids, a large area created by merging indoor and outdoor area is a boon.  An Open floor plan creates a spacious area that is visible from the living room, dining, and kitchen area. Parents worried about their children’s safety can keep an eye on their children’s activities while working inside the house. Linking the two places creates a safe play area for the children and an area supervised without being physically present with the children while they play.
