What is with all the minimalist-style houses popping up lately? Not that there’s anything wrong with minimalist designs, but not every modern house these days need to flaunt a ‘less is more’ look, right?

Just think of all the possibilities that exist when it comes to modern architecture – the colours, the materials, the textures, the geometric shapes, etc. There are so many different elements that can inspire, which means no two houses ever need to look the same.

That is exactly why we’ve sourced these 25 modern houses that cater to a variety of different tastes – to motivate you before you start building your own version of yet another cookie-cutter house.

Scroll down and let’s get inspired!
