Beyond Homes is the name with which Enorme Studio proposes two homes in which the house becomes more than just a home. One located in Spain and the other in the United States, they start with the premise of being transformable to create different spaces adapted to the activities of our era.
In the two houses, a central rotating unit is created that transforms the space to adapt it to the demands of various activities and create a hybrid and fluid space.

The house that Enorme Studio proposes in the United States is called MT House and it is designed for a couple of designers who seek to create common and private spaces that change over time, in such a way that co-design is integrated as the genesis of the project.

For the GR House project, located in Spain, the premise starts from creating an also changing home for a German retiree who wants to dedicate himself to electronic music. In this way, the house transforms the space thanks to the central unit and adapts it to the needs of activities typical of a hotel suite, a place for parties, or an office.

Description of project by Enorme Studio
That our homes do not adapt to the frenetic contemporary lifestyle is not something new. The house is now much more than a simple home and the “A Home is not a House ”promulgated by Reyner Banham, and drawn by Francoise Dallegret, has become obsolete. We live in a time when housing goes beyond the home to become a hybrid and hyper-connected place, an Instagram scenography but at the same time it’s a high performance center, an increasingly smaller but more connected home, a space that changes all the time and gives to what we need from it.
From ENORME Studio we propose two houses in which we have been working during this pandemic for two clients who needed something beyond a home...
GR House is the temporary home on the Spanish Costa del Sol of a German dentist, who lives and works in Munich, and who wants to retire at 45 and dedicate himself completely to his great passion, electronic music. The GR House is a retreat of about 40 m² that is articulated around a revolving piece of furniture that rigs the main space of the house to make it in a hotel suite, an office, a VIP lounge for parties or a conventional bedroom where you can watch your favorite NETFLIX series.
MT House (promoted by Mathew Chow) is the ground floor of the house of a couple of designers, entrepreneurs and gurus from Oakland, California. In addition to being able to welcome each other's families, this part of the house needs to be able to be a co-design place, an event center and the home for some of his friends from outside the USA for short periods ... Through a revolving cabinet, which follows the concept coined by Charles Moore of Superfurniture, the different spaces unfold as if they were a Swiss army knife... MIKE is going to stay here two weeks, ten tekkys friends have come to think about a new technological product, M's birthday has been wonderful GR House and MT House, two homes designed by ENORME Studio beyond the home.
