I have been experimenting with creating "Open Walls" in homes since quite a few years in various houses. Below is a example of our own new home in JK Hill Park - E604 in Dhayari Pune.
Apart from creating useful spaces , these "Open Wall'', changed completely the light & ventilation quality & overall 'Feel of Space'
This is how, the Wall & Space looks , Before
This is how , the Space looks after having made changes & created an "Open Wall"
The real change is experienced from our kitchen, as we have created a dining area just behind the low wall behind, what was the earlier entrance with creating the new entrance. By doing this we have been able to compact our kitchen in half the space of 8 feet x 8 feet.
When people move from old homes to new, they generally carry certain old elements or 'Associational Values'. In our 1BHK flat in the same locality, we had a small open wall. We carried this "Open Wall" in our new home as an associational element. The new owners to whom, we sold our earlier flat call our home as a 'Big Brother' of our earlier home
