Architectural trends that are transforming the market - explores the latest trends in design and architecture that are impacting the way properties are built and marketed today.

Sustainability, zero waste, energy savings and artificial intelligence are just the tip of the iceberg. iceberg of the new architecture that is already setting the pulse of new construction in Valencia. From our luxury real estate agency in Valencia we invite you to get to know it.  

Eccentricities that have become a trend in new construction Valencia

At first they were seen as unnecessary luxuries and even as eccentricities, but they gradually made their way into Valencian homes due to the magnificent acceptance they had among the new generations.

Safe and pleasant spaces

We were once confined to our homes for months at a time. That is not forgotten, especially if we take into account that it is very likely to happen again. Such an event has forever changed the way we are at home, something that architecture has echoed through innovative proposals for spaces that merge the indoors with the outdoors in a safe and comfortable way.

Houses with gardens are now the favourite home model for all types of families, while in the case of Valencia flats, the terrace has become a non-negotiable space. But this is not all, because it is not enough to have a garden or a terrace, but special emphasis has been placed on enclosures, furniture and outdoor cladding materials, such as wood treated to withstand the weather conditions.

                Sustainable and energy-efficient construction

Architecture has taken on the task of contributing to reducing the carbon footprint and being a major player in saving domestic energy costs. Therefore, buildings and cladding made from recycled steel, cork, natural clay, sheep's wool, recycled wood or wood grown on specialised farms, and hemp are the most in demand in new build construction in Valencia.

                Accessible buildings

Life expectancy has been extended by a few years. However, the passage of time has not yet managed to rid us of the complications and reduced capacities that accompany it. Therefore, the current architectural trend goes hand in hand with designs that allow access to the home for people with reduced or no mobility. Ramps, lifts and handrails for support and protection are the most representative elements of this trend.

                3D printing for housing construction

Proven to be clean, sustainable and waste-free, printing housing parts and then assembling them together is an attractive proposition when it comes to saving time and maximising accuracy.

At the same time, this type of architecture offers a significant reduction in production costs and infinite possibilities for customisation.

                Artificial intelligence in the service of architecture

While we do not yet have a staff of robots to commission a new Valencia building to be completed in half a working day, artificial intelligence has, unsurprisingly, already crept into the field of architecture.

Thanks to their help, it is possible to make an infinite number of proposals for house plans based on a series of parameters. In this sense, it is like having a legion of architects producing ideas around the clock, all of them completely applicable to reality.

The sentence if you can imagine it, you can do ithas given way to the sumum of creation: we can create the unimaginable.

                Incorporation of home automation

Smart lights are no longer the goal but the starting point towards a home in which technology is at the service of the specific needs of the members of the household. A clear example of this achievement is the adaptation of home lighting to the circadian rhythm of its occupants. In this way, people reach the peak of their performance, productivity and well-being.

                Parametric architecture

A new construction Valencia completely adapted to the space in which it is to be built? This is now possible thanks to parametric architecture. With the help of software In architecture, highly complex, organic forms can be explored. This architectural trend offers great scope for customisation and imagination.

                Contextual architecture

Did you ever get the impression that a certain house didn't fit in with its surroundings? Contextual architecture arises to eliminate the aesthetic dissonance between a building and its surroundings. Therefore, it takes into account the aesthetics, the culture of the area, the natural environment and the history of the place. In this way, the professional in charge of studying the project for the new Valencia building proposes the construction of a Nordic, oriental, Mediterranean, rustic, industrial or any other style of building that allows the longed-for visual harmony between the building and its surroundings.

                Microliving

A world without traffic jams? It is now possible. And not only that, but also without the inconvenience of long journeys to work, to take the children to school and to go to the health centre, as this proposal consists of placing housing in an area with all the basic services at a notoriously close distance to it. An example of this model is the fifteen-minute cities proposed by Carlos Moreno.

                Flexible spaces

Everything (or almost everything) you need can be found in your home. This is a new Valencia project in which the space is divided into a work area, a physical activity area, a play area, a leisure area and so on and so forth, with everything you can think of incorporating, from a cinema to a disco, including, in the most magnanimous and daring proposals, a small beach in the garden.

                Rehabilitation of old buildings

The sustainability plan in which we are already immersed is completely against the demolition of old buildings that can be recovered. Therefore, the proposal is to rehabilitate them, refurbish them and give them a new use. In this way, a building that today would seem to be completely useless, thanks to the incorporation of artificial intelligence, can be put to an infinite number of new uses.

                Resurgence of marble and natural stones

Marble is light years away from falling into disuse. Those who are looking for consistency, robustness and definition in their environments, especially in the kitchen, for their new Valencia building, opt for marble, granite and quartz worktops and islands.

                Multifunctional furniture

They have already been very popular in small spaces, so now the trend is to incorporate them into flexible spaces, as they can be used as a seat and a chest, as a chest of drawers and a desk, and as a bed and a library, all at the same time.

                Biophilia

We told you about the indoor-outdoor fusion, but biophilia goes one step further and brings the outdoors indoors. That is to say, in addition to integrating a large number of indoor plants to give a jungle feel to rooms, this trend makes use of natural materials for cladding and decoration, as well as a lighting system inspired by nature itself, such as sunlight and moonlight, and the integration of organic shapes through furniture and decorative elements.

Architecture has embarked on its fusion towards art.

In addition to a clear focus on sustainability and care for the environment, the new architecture allows personalisation at its maximum expression. In this way, new construction in Valencia has abandoned standardisation to remain open to the demands of each client, which opens the door to proposals that fuse functionality with the artistic.

At the same time, there is a growing trend to transform the façade of a building into a work of art by, for example, painting a mural on it that catches the eye from various points in the city.
