Common opinion among people is that house has to be huge

What makes these modern house designs so special and different from others? Well, one of the criteria was location of the house, which often plays important role in the way house is designed. For example, houses designed by SAOTA, are almost always built somewhere on a cliff, high above the ocean, or down on a rocky beach, giving its residents an opportunity to enjoy in breathtaking views or relaxing sounds that ocean waves make while crashing into the rocks below the house.

House size


Next, size of the house. Common opinion among people is that house has to be huge or expensive to be beautiful or amazing. This is really, really far from being true. You will notice I picked some pretty small houses (in comparison to others) for this list. For example, this minimalist house and this creative home. Good architects and their clients who have taste and style will together create gorgeous modern house designs, no matter how big the house is at the end.

Architectural style


Speaking of style, this brings us to the next criteria. Style in architecture. This is another thing strongly related to someone’s personality, but you have to admit, when someone has style, this is obvious to everyone. Cool Minecraft Small Modern House ideas I think architects and owners of those homes have amazing style in architecture and this is one of the reasons why I put those homes on the list.

“The wow factor” of modern house designs


When we take all criteria described above, we get one and only, “the wow factor”. When you see modern home and its design, you’re either impressed, or not impressed. This can be described as “the wow factor”, and, at the end, this is the main reason why those homes are on this list. All of them attracted my attention, got me all interested and left me impressed, which made me put together this list of top 50 modern house designs at the end.


Let’s take a look!

Modern front facade design


Front facade is probably the most important part of every house design. Since it is facing public area, it is essential to make sure that the house blends well with the surrounding and fits in the neighborhood in general.

Exterior house design facing the backyard


Even though front facade is of somewhat greater importance when it comes to a house design, the backyard facade is far from being unimportant. Next two modern houses are perfect examples of exterior house design facing the backyard where modern house design is complemented with terraces, swimming pools and gardens.

Green roof as part of modern house design


Green roofs are often being used as a key element in sustainable housing. Besides being good for the environment and your home’s overall sustainability, they also add value to a visual appearance of the house. Singapore’s Sky Garden House designed by Guz Architects shows an outstanding green roof being part of the modern house design.

Big modern house design


Wider Los Angeles area, especially Hollywood, Bel Air and Beverly Hills are packed with breathtaking modern mansions. While big modern houses might not be everyone’s cup of tea, they can be really interesting and impressive pieces of architecture. Just like this modern mansion on 1232 Sunset Plaza Drive.

Small house design


Some people simply prefer smaller houses instead of big imposing mansions. An no one can blame them since small modern homes often really do look more charming and beautiful than large houses. Shakin Stevens House designed by Matt Gibson Architecture + Design is one of them. Small house design based on minimalism and “less is more” approach can do wonders.
