The stars of the modern architecture movement are still the most well known names in this art form, though. Architectural giants such as Frank Lloyd Wright in the United States, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe in Germany and Le Corbusier in Switzerland made this movement the popular success that it was, and their works and influences live on today.<\/p>\n<p>There are several elements that distinguish <i>modern house plans<\/i> from any other types of homes.\u00a0 The floor plans include open living spaces, for starters, thanks to Wright\u2019s influence.\u00a0 He believed that separate rooms obstructed the natural flow of living.\u00a0 You can still find floor plans with very open spaces for entertaining, relaxing and dining, as well as other modern factors such as large plate-glass windows and outdoor patio areas.\u00a0 Outdoor spaces are integral to many of the home floor plans that you see today, as they provide more usable living space and allow for a blending of the outdoors and the indoors.\u00a0 The modern home design also tends to utilize a lot of clean lines and geometric shapes without a lot of unnecessary decoration within the architecture itself.\u00a0 Materials like steel, glass and concrete are also more common in modern house designs, as opposed to the natural stone, wood and plaster of traditional homes.<\/p>\n<p>Home plans inspired by the modern movement put function before form and utilize wide open spaces to inspire a sense of community among the inhabitants, although some might say the utilitarian nature of these homes is not very homey.\u00a0 But today it is possible to find floor plans that take many of the ideas of the modernist movement and combine them with some other classic ideals to create a contemporary look that is all your own.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The house designs of today reflect the eclectic range of tastes of modern homeowners, with styles that range from the classic Victorian to the ultra contemporary European style and everything in between.\u00a0 There is still a specific type of home design that is considered specifically \u201cmodern,\u201d however, which is distinctly separate from any other styles [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"cybocfi_hide_featured_image":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[9],"class_list":["post-15","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-house-plans","tag-modern-house-plans"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.8 -
