This is a house that makes the family move more than a typical home, comprises of unusual shapes and spaces to intrigue the brain, offers choices of movement to keep the brain active and has an element of fun. A beehive structure spreads out organically and provides the family with several spaces to be used as each likes. The hexagonal shape, the access point and the connecting route all stimulate the senses. Kids must manoeuvre in new ways, calculate the paths they will take, and adjust their stance to move in the space. Their sense of direction will also be challenged.
