If you adore box-like, red houses with an open kitchen and around 1,200 square feet of space, guess what! You’re an average Swede, apparently. Real estate site Hemnet and architects Tham & Videgård came up with the design by crowdsourcing user preferences for size, number of rooms and floors, using 200 million clicks on 86,000 properties. “The result is partly a mathematical translation of the statistical 1.5 floors within a cubic volume,” according to the team. The home makes the open kitchen the focal point of the house, highlighting its social importance to Swedes.
