Avant-garde Architecture

Avant-garde or modernist architecture embraces a style that is gaining, nowadays, even more popularity and importance. First of all, the word ‘avant-garde’ refers to the newest or most advanced, being so this architectural style defined by its straight lines or vertices, including very little decoration.

Those characteristics provide a lot of freedom to building designers, as you may appreciate in some examples of these architectural developments which are taking place in different parts of the world.

The architecture of the future is marked by several leanings of innovation. On one side, sustainability is a priority, looking to reduce emissions in construction and promoting the use of environmentally-friendly materials.

An avant-garde movement in lately architecture is considering new formal expressions and materials derived from the increased use of digital technologies. This results in a global profusion of buildings with non-traditional geometries in all parts of the world.

In this type of buildings, we may find great advantages in terms of light, open spaces to make better use of, as well as large and modernised bathrooms. In addition, this combination turns out in an innovative and very interesting project, worth to consider when looking for investing in the real estate.

Star Homes offers you a great selection by the most modern architects, willing to create projects potentially more profitable over time, since it is essential, when deciding to invest in a new project, to consider whether it is innovative or revolutionary. This enhances the commercialisation of properties, meaning in an increase of their value.

Avant-garde architecture enables the architect to explore different possibilities throughout the process of a developing building, which, together with innovation, create a more profitable project. Additionally, maintenance is key to ensure that the structure remains functional and habitable. As a result, avant-garde architecture highlights as all its components fulfil a purpose.

(AI): Artificial intelligence (AI) is also revolutionising and transforming architectural design by enabling 3D modelling, energy optimisation and space customisation. In addition, the flexibility of buildings is enhanced, providing adaptability to occupants and reducing energy consumption.

Nature: It is a source of inspiration for architects and is expected to remain an important trend for many years to come. According to Harvard University study, exposure to nature can reduce stress, improve mood and increase productivity.

Beauty: Architectural design should be as beautiful as its function, architects seek to create buildings that are aesthetically pleasing, functional and sustainable.                                            

Smart materials: Smart materials are revolutionising architectural design, making buildings more efficient and sustainable, and allowing them to adapt to user comfort. These interactive materials can be used for several purposes, responding to changes in pressure, temperature, humidity or ultraviolet radiation. One material that has been used frequently is smart glass, which can change its translucency to block sunlight or allow rays to penetrate surfaces. These vehicles are constantly adapting and are fast becoming essential in the world of design and architecture.                       

Integrating green space into the city: High-rise cities often displace nature and, while they succeed in preserving urban vegetation close to the ground, they fail to connect precious green space with building occupants, isolated from the natural environment in an enclosed space.

In recent decades, biodiversity has declined at an unprecedented rate with the rise of high-density cities. Integrating green space into urban centres is key to reversing this trend and doubling the benefits, benefiting both people and the planet.                        

Research over the years has shown that exposure to the natural world improves human health in a number of ways: reducing stress, improving mood and self-esteem, speeding recovery from illness, improving cognitive skills and work performance.

If you are considering investing in an architectural development, taking into account the issues described above can help you make a better decision. It is not only a question of location and short-term return on investment, but also the architectural style of the development. Because of the innovative and avant-garde style, long-term options are much more extensive. This leads to a better return on your capital and a higher return on investment in long term.
