Inspirational ideas for House Design

Inspirational House Design

The house design is a personal statement of one’s life. House reflects the resident’s personality in many myriad ways. A beautiful house lends creativity and happiness to the resident’s life. Here are five inspirational ideas for an outstanding house design –

Barn Inspired House Design

Barn inspired house designs do make perfect holiday homes. They spell leisure with hammocks, white picket fences with a few horses, orchards full of bountiful fruits and low-sunk swimming pool that would beckon you for a dip. The beauty of

a barn inspired house design is that, on the outside, it looks like a cluster of buildings built together though it is not. Wooden floor, beams on the ceiling are the most common features of modern barn houses. Dining rooms are mostly designed overlooking the garden while the kitchens have a large fireplace to provide a warm hearth. Stone walls are yet another integral feature of barn houses. They can be built to demarcate the pool area from the lawn.

Cottage Inspired House Design

A little cottage is always so snug. Though cosy garden cottages are the stuff that fairy tales are made of, you too can have your cottage if not the fairy tale. Today’s modern cottage houses are mostly built with reclaimed wood; oak, pine or teak. The discolouration in the woods adds to the earthy feeling that this house exudes. Pristine white and shades of grey are the sought after colours for cottages in general. Most go for furnishing that are vintage with a distressed or weathered look to give the cottage a well lived in look. Being eclectic is most often the right mood for cottage inspired house designs. Throw in a mix of antique lights and modern carpets. Opposites do attract!

Manor Inspired House Design

You may not be ‘manor born’ but you can certainly have a manor inspired house design for your dream home. There is nothing small about manor inspired house designs. Well-manicured grounds bordered by garden hedges are a must in this design. Ornate accessories, floral curtains, antique furniture and stunning chandeliers are many elements of this house design. Details such as butler’s pantry, paved driveway, lush gardens are what English Manors are all about.

Beach Inspired House Design

Though rather clichéd in all beach cities, the charm of the beach house wins in the end. A sandy expanse overlooking the calm blue sea. Now who wouldn’t want to wake to this beauty? Beach houses built to give the residents spectacular views of the sea. Living rooms are furnished with reclaimed wood furniture and the bedrooms are most often situated on the top floor to give you a view that would make the house worth all the more. Some even install fire ladders in the bedroom to create a small nook in the terrace to watch the ships sail by.
