Willoughby, Australia 21 April 2014 : You may often have heard modern houses being called steel and glass plate buildings. This is a common characteristic of modern house designs Australia. The architects of modern house design, preferred and continue to prefer function over the very superficial design of the building. So instead of paying meticulous detail to decoration, modern designers and architects have made quite clear their stress on function over aesthetics. So unlike the architects of the Renaissance, Baroque, and Rococo periods, true modern architects almost completely did away with needlessly decorative facades, furniture covered with floral décor, elaborately designed and brightly colored wallpapers, and the likes.

So this article aims to put forward some characteristics of house designs which readers can couple with photographs of the works of contemporary modern architects. In this way, they will be able to gauge whether new modern house designs appeal to them. If they are planning to buy a house in the near future, then perhaps they will want to do some research on architects that are trained in design houses of the modern style of architecture. If they do indeed like working with these architects, they could choose to use one of their designs to build a house for themselves.

One of the most important features of modern house design plans is minimalism and the extensive focus on technology. Most of these houses, as you may have observed from pictures or from experience, have a sleek and streamlined appearance. They are almost always constructed out of cement or concrete, glass, and steel. The architect may use these very same materials to adapt and give the house a decisively vintage look, but at all times the materials used to construct a modern house remain the same: glass, steel, and concrete. Although we mentioned earlier that the use of technology is extensive in modern house design, remember that the foremost principle behind the construction of modern houses is functional. So of course, if you do not require such amounts of modern technology to be installed in your modern house, do not go for it in the first place. Talk candidly to your architect about your current and proposed lifestyle, and evaluate house much technology you require in your new house. Installing too much technology that you do not need in the first place will have you waste a lot of money. Additionally, a lot of this technology wastes nonrenewable natural resources and it's a terrible burden on the environment. At all times, opt for a responsible and sustainable design.

Modern house designers very seldom use pastel colors for either the exterior or the interior of the modern house designs. Instead, modern house architects and interior designers usually go for neutral colors with bright and bold streaks of black, blue, green, orange and sometimes red. They usually use aluminum for their windows and railings, and rarely ever would. Of course, if you prefer to use pastels and wooden panels instead of modern materials, you and your designer can arrive at a creative way of using them.
