Prairie style houses integrate traditional horizontal lines and low slope hip roofs with large expanses of glass and clean modern detailing. Modern takes on this classic style incorporate new materiality, asymmetrical applications of material and detailing, and large expansive glazing in a wide variety of configurations.
The West Coast Contemporary home is characterized by low sloping hip, shed and single-sloped roofs with broad overhangs. Homes can be minimalistic with controlled roof pitches, clean lines, or bold forms with exaggerated shed roofs.
Nordic inspired homes take simple lines, familiar stacked two-storey forms, and steep pitched gables rooflines and seek to achieve a minimalist, clean approach to the exterior design – without sacrificing beauty. The exterior of this style will include strong natural wood influences in either siding or feature elements and subdued, monochromatic colour schemes.
Contemporary home design will draw inspiration from its basis in the modern movement, but move beyond the typical rectangular modern form, combining various low-sloped roof lines with broad overhangs and horizontal proportions. Much of its defining characteristics are achieved with sharp exterior palettes with modern building materials used to accent and highlight features on the exterior form and large windows to bring in natural light.
