Bring your kitchen, dining, and living areas together with Metricon’s open-plan house designs. These award-winning homes are designed for better flow, more light, and everyday functionality, with smart zoning, open layouts, and practical inclusions that suit your block and lifestyle.
Whether it’s a new home build or a renovation, thinking about how your spaces connect matters. An open floor plan can give you more flexibility, better flow, and a home that feels lighter and easier to live in, primarily when the kitchen, dining, and living areas all work together.
That’s why so many Australian households choose open-plan living spaces. It’s a simple way to make your home feel bigger without adding more.
At Metricon Homes, we design family homes that suit real life. Our home designs bring people together in a way that works day to day, helping thousands of homeowners create spaces that feel open, connected, and made for how they live. And we’d love to help you do the same.
A good open-plan design brings together all the right elements to make family life feel more comfortable, more connected, and less cluttered. From how light moves through your home to how zones work together, every detail plays a part. Here’s what makes our open-plan layouts stand out:
Open-plan living isn’t tied to one kind of home. That’s why we offer open-plan home designs across The Metricon Range. From compact builds to larger footprints, each design supports the way you live.
Bring your kitchen, dining room, living area, and alfresco together on one level with our open-plan single-storey homes. These house designs keep things simple and accessible while still feeling open and spacious.
For a practical way to create space for connection and privacy at the same time, Metricon offers two-storey home designs with open layouts. Here, shared spaces come together downstairs in a central great room, while bedrooms are zoned above.
Got a tricky site? No worries. Even with limited width or sloping sites, our narrow block and split-level house plans offer an open-plan layout with defined zones, generous living areas, and great access to light and outdoor space.
For larger blocks of land, checking out Metricon’s The Acreage Collection is a good place to start. These homes are all about open interiors, wide layouts, and multiple entertaining areas that flow to the outdoors.
No two households use their space in the same way. That’s why every open-plan living area we design is made to be flexible. It’s not just about having one big space. It’s about creating zones that support what your days really look like. Here are a few ways Metricon Homes can help you personalise the layouts:
Getting the functionality right means thinking beyond the layout. We can help with interior design advice, curated inclusions, and facade styles that reflect how you want your home to feel. Planning outdoor zones, too? We also offer landscaping tips to make sure your indoor and outdoor spaces work together as one.
Starting an open-plan home build is a big step, but it doesn’t have to feel overwhelming. It all starts with the right design and the right people behind it. We’d love to help you build it.
Take a 3D virtual tour or visit a display home to see how our layouts feel in real life, and see how the kitchen flows into the living, the light moves through every space, and the design just works. Explore homes like the Santorini to experience this flow firsthand and see how thoughtful design makes family living feel effortless.
