Modern House Plans

Drawing inspiration from more industrial influences, modern house plans tend to blend panel siding with stucco accents with lap siding or vertical cedar siding and tend to be absent of trim or detail work. The floor plans are open with tall ceilings in the living areas, double corner windows, with cantilevered decks or balconies, and an asymmetrical layout. Modern floor plans lend themselves to urban lots or hillside properties - the rich expansive of glass in most modern floor plans is ideal for sloped lots with views.
Modern house plans are similar yet not interchangeable with contemporary house plans. While both provide a fresh, eye-catching designs filled with trending floor plan features, contemporary home designs draw on more than one architectural style. For instance you may have a contemporary home with a charming bungalow inspired exterior with a completely open floor plan and a large outdoor space boasting an outdoor kitchen or fireplace.
