Hacky and Micky homes are usually characterised by stiff layouts that restrict the possibility of storage and flexible rooms. Renovations with movable walls enable the owner of the house to modify rooms by adding built-in storage effecting a dynamic space that can change over time according to what the owner requires.
Movable walls are able to hide shelves, closets or cabinets hence offering a secret storage when not in use. Partitions and folding walls may be used to separate rooms or open up living spaces or corners to make personal spaces, without building up permanent walls. There are even designs which combine desks, media units or wardrobes and the walls become multi functional.
Movable walls can be used in homes with unusual floor plans, so they can be configured to suit the Hacky home even though such adjustments are not permanent. Their smaller Micky houses make the most out of constrained square footprint using a mix of storage plus reconfiguring of rooms providing flexibility and order in a single design solution.
Conclusion / Area of Thought: The importance of movable walls in homes is emphasised through the process of renovating. Storage does not always need to be fixed in place anymore, it can move around, change and even respond to the needs of the day. The idea to consider: can we store in and can we move in the walls, what other things in our lives can be made more flexible, more creative?
