Office & ancillary
The same disciplined logic also works for compact business uses.
Compact footprints with calm, premium living.
At the smaller end of the range, R-shape homes prove that modest floor area does not have to feel compromised. These layouts put light, flow, storage and daily usability ahead of wasted space.
XXS 32.9 m²
A pure open-plan concept that keeps the footprint exceptionally efficient. It works especially well where speed, simplicity and controlled cost matter most – but still needs to feel premium rather than temporary.
- Open living and dining space with full bathroom and dedicated entrance/storage zone
- A sharp starting point for hospitality, guest accommodation or compact lifestyle plots
- Strong value-to-footprint ratio with the easiest decision path in the range
XS 40.1 m²
Adds a dedicated bedroom and a more relaxed living zone without giving up the clarity that makes R-shape homes easy to price, understand and buy. A highly appealing layout for both homeowners and investors.
- Separate bedroom improves privacy and long-stay comfort
- More generous living space supports daily use rather than weekend-only use
- A balanced entry-level product with broader buyer appeal
S 49.0 m²
A balanced one-bedroom layout that creates more generous day-to-day living while keeping the clean rectangular logic that makes the R-shape family easy to understand and easy to buy.
- More generous living / dining space without overbuilding the home
- A clear compact step up for buyers who want more daily usability than XS
- An efficient layout with stronger flexibility for work, storage and longer stays
More room, better zoning, stronger everyday flow.
As the R-shape family grows in length, the layouts gain clearer separation between shared and private zones, more furniture freedom and better day-to-day comfort.
M 57.2 m²
A smart move into genuine multi-room living. The plan creates distinct sleeping areas while preserving the calm, rectangular logic that makes the family so efficient.
- Dedicated living zone plus two well-separated sleeping rooms
- Balanced size for private ownership, longer stays and year-round use
- A strong seller where buyers want compact but complete
L 65.4 m²
Introduces clearer internal zoning, stronger privacy and more room to position the home as a real alternative to far more complex houses. It is one of the most commercially balanced plans in the range.
- Two-bedroom family-ready layout with more breathing room
- A stronger sense of progression from compact product to full-time home
- Better storage, furniture flexibility and resale appeal
Longer layouts create calmer circulation, better privacy and stronger resale appeal.
Family-ready plans that keep the logic of the range.
At the upper end of the range, larger plans bring longer room lines, more sleeping capacity and clearer separation between social, private and work-focused zones.
XL 74.2 m²
A generous family-ready plan that supports larger living, more distinct room uses and a stronger sense of permanence. It keeps the clean DNA of the family while moving into a more aspirational product position.
- More sleeping capacity with better layout hierarchy
- Works well for families, multi-use living and higher-value rental products
- A premium mid-large offer that still feels efficient
XXL 82.3 m²
The most spacious R-shape expression – giving buyers rectangular clarity without sacrificing privacy, room count or everyday usability. It proves that efficient planning can still feel generous.
- Three sleeping rooms with distinct shared and private zones
- Premium daily-living potential without abandoning the simplicity of the family
- A flagship R-shape layout built to stand out and appeal to a wide range of buyers.
Scale matters — but layout clarity, privacy and usable space matter even more.
