Or you can use 3rd party pacages

Code

public class House:Westwind.Utilities.Expando
   {
       public string Door { get; set; }
       public string Roof { get; set; }
       public string Window { get; set; }

       public House():base()
       {
       }

       public House(object instance):base(instance)
       {
       }
   }

Code

class Program
   {
       static void Main(string[] args)
       {
           dynamic myHouse = new ExpandoObject();

           myHouse.Door = "1";
           myHouse.Window = "white trim 49x49";

           Console.WriteLine(myHouse.Window);

           var house = new House();

           house.Door = "1";
           house.Roof = "big red";
           house.Window = "white trim 48x48";
           //One way to add
           house["Window1"]= "white trim 49x49";
           //Second way to add
           dynamic add = house;
           add.Windows2 = "white trim 50x50";          

           Console.WriteLine(house.Door);
           Console.WriteLine(house.Roof);
           Console.WriteLine(house.Window);
           Console.WriteLine(house["Window1"]);
           Console.WriteLine(add.Windows2);
           Console.ReadLine();

       }
   }
