What use are buildings if they aren't closed spaces? If they're open, then you're open to the elements and/or wild animals, and at that point it's not a shelter.
I live near beach, it's pleasant year round. Much of my living space is permanently open to the elements, the rest of it has sliding/french doors and large windows that are open most of the time the dwelling is occupied.
It's definitely a shelter.
That said, stuff from outside sometimes gets inside. I clean, no biggie.
