What is the best way to
make a good impression with your home? Of course, people mostly judge interior
design.
However, the majority of
people living never get into your house. They evaluate the house’s exterior.
Indeed, exterior design is important, especially if you want to impress
everyone, so that people walking by your home would say: “Hey, this is such a
nice house”. Making everyone envy you is not that bad, I should admit. Exterior
of the house is its face. They safe the house’s face is that of his owner.
Well, anyway, it is
important to make sure your house look nicely if you look at it from the
street. In this post I will recommend the hottest trend for home exterior
design for this year.
Stone Face
The face of your house
should be nice. Agree? The best way to achieve it is to use stone or bricks.
Yes, natural stone can be incredibly expensive! However, don’t forget that we
are living in the age of technologies. There is artificial stone, also called synthetic
stone. There are also sprays that will make any material look like a real
stone. You can look for examples of stone faced houses on the net, and I am
sure you are going to like them. This technique will help you make even a cheap
house like a royal castle. As said above, it is not expensive at all, although
you may opt for a real stone as a preferred material.
Vinyl Siding
Well, this is truly an
inexpensive option. Besides, you will not face any difficulties in finding the
right design and color, and vinyl siding in available in tons of colors. There
is a myth that this is an option for cheap homes. No way! Even Victorian style
houses can be renovated with vinyl siding. Fortunately, the siding comes in a
variety of designs and forms in terms of its set up. It also does not require
any advanced DIY experience and tools to mount up.
Fiber Cement
Siding
Let’s look at one more
hot exterior design trend. First off, this material is fire resistant which
means it is safer than wood. Secondly, it can resemble virtually any material,
wood siding in particular. This makes fiber cement siding so much popular.
Besides, you do not need to fork out for its maintenance. Actually, every
second house uses this material, and I am sure the number of homeowners choosing
fiber cement will only increase.
Red Cedar
If you have some extra
money and you really want your house to look splendid, red cedar is the
material you should be looking for. It is famous for its versatility, natural
beauty and of course durability. It is also eco-friendly. I mean this is so
much better than all those artificial materials that simply do not exist in
nature.
Individual
elements
For sure, some personal
touches will make your house look different and unique. It might be anything
you want. Of course, design elements should harmonize with the exterior design
materials. I’d suggest you hire a professional designer if you are a bit
uncertain.
