Pivot House is more than meets the eye, it’s architecture in motion.
Built on a steel framework with a collar bearing as its central rotation point, the compact home integrates every essential: Bathroom and shower, kitchen, bedroom, work space, and storage.
What makes it remarkable is the choreography of living scenarios planned around specific angles of rotation. At 0º, the house settles into its bedroom setting.
Rotate to 45º, and the space transforms into a combined dining, work, and cooking area. At 90º, it becomes a bright, open living room for the day.
By fixing the rotation point above the WC and shower, the design eliminates the need for a separate washroom enclosure. This move frees up the entire footprint for adaptable living, creating a flexible plan where no square foot is wasted.
The work of art/design collective Tomato, the result is an inventive reimagining of how we can live within smaller spaces, where function and creativity revolve seamlessly together.
It’s no wonder that Pivot House earned an Honourable Mention from the BeeBreeders architectural competition jury, recognized as a bold experiment in micro-living and spatial ingenuity.
Though just a concept for now, we like the ingenuity and thought-provoking layout, which feels so multi-functional.
