A phrase coined by Mary Duggan, a judge of the Riba House of the Year award, broken plan living presents a new interior design concept Open plan living with the option of creating distinctive zones that offer quiet and privacy, Smart and flexible interconnected spaces with an option to open up or close rooms on demand.

Broken plan is the best of both worlds. A practical alternative and midway point between open plan living and traditional separate rooms. The creative use of structural materials to create screens and partitions opens up new possibilities for living and working in our homes

The use of glass in a broken-plan design

It is well-publicised that natural light positively affects our well-being, and the feeling of light and space is one of the key benefits of open-plan living. Glass partitions are the perfect choice for zoning areas. Many styles are available, including hinged, sliding and folding, and systems are available frameless, semi-obscure or with a crittall style design

The structural strength, transparency and versatility of glass, therefore, means that you can easily realise an extra bedroom, separate dining and living areas or create a home office.

The big trend to look out for is "broken plan living", which enhances the open-plan layout through the introduction of different zones. This can be achieved with split levels, varied flooring and clever lighting, and keeps an appealing feeling of flow " Adding Crittall doors to an already opened-up space still gives the illusion and feel of open plan, but allows you to separate the rooms, " suggests Gabi. " Another easy way to zone the rooms is by adding open shelving or tall glass units accessed from both sides, the added benefit of extra storage
