Why Bauhaus works for your open plan
A open plan is primarily about combined living, dining, and often kitchen space. Bauhaus brings primary colour accents to this space, creating an environment that feels spacious, connected, and harmonious. The style's emphasis on geometric, functional forms pairs naturally with the open plan's need for zoned lighting. When it comes to durability, Bauhaus works here because open plan surfaces need mixed — kitchen-adjacent areas need higher durability than the lounge zone resistance, and the style's material palette accommodates that.
