When it comes to building the home of your dreams, it’s always a good idea to pick a design that you really like, both in form and function. After all, you will be spending a lot of money on your home; thus, it should definitely be something to your liking.

While many people go for the standard and popular house designs, others enjoy the freedom of choosing a unique home that would showcase their favorite styles.

Modern homes with futuristic designs might be quite different from the usual home designs, but you’ll surely love having the most unique home in your neighborhood. Be warned, though, that your home might attract a lot of people who might want to take photos because they appreciate the futuristic design!

In contemporary homes, you would notice that plenty of architects use glass features all over the home. Some homes even have nearly full glass walls!

While glass homes look great, you might be a little concerned with privacy if there are neighbors nearby or if your home is very near the street. Of course, you don’t have to use glass in all your walls as there are also house designs that feature mostly concrete or wood and some glass.

You might notice that plenty of modern homes these days also have a sleek, minimalist design that makes you think they are patterned from boxes. But though these dream homes look less fancy than the others, they are actually among the most practical because you get to have full use of every nook and cranny of the house; no wasted space.

But who says you have to build a contemporary home in this modern era? Bring back the old home designs that showcase castle-like features that would transport you back in time. You’ll also love these homes!

Check out these design ideas and tell us whether you prefer the modern homes or the old-fashioned house designs…
