The different materials used for the construction of homes has been evolving ever since the beginning days of architecture. The price for these materials is also climbing high, unfortunately. Nevertheless, the material that has stood the test of time in durability, style, and cost-effectiveness is none other than our good friend wood. For decades, wood has been used as the foundation for homes all across the world and it's thanks to its easy adaptation to different climates.

So to inspire you to get you off your rear and get motivated to finally build that dream home you've always wanted, we've gathered a list on nine beautifully modern wooden homes. Be sure to make note of your favourite designs and elements!

1. Anywhere in the world

One of the advantages of wood is that, in addition to being an easily manipulated material, it has also become the ideal solution for architectural projects in different climates. It's important to note that the type of wood to use will depend on the weather. Thick wood is the most ideal for cold places, but when freshness is sought in a tropical climate, one of the better choices is timber, for example.

2. The best material

If you want to get a little economy one, of the best materials is wood. Many construction companies use it for it's easy manipulation, too. As opposed to a concrete house, a wooden one can culminate with the fastest possible delivery of urbanism, something that does not happen when building a house with other materials.

3. Advantages

It is important to consider that wooden houses can be refurbished very easily, since remodeling a specific area and even adding new spaces is possible. Bear in mind that the first step that must be carried out is the construction of new base to support the weight of the new walls and even the roof. In addition, general maintenance can be made in a much more practical way without having to knock out any of the walls in comparison to other constructions.

4. Wooden homes with pastel colours

To give a more personal touch to each home, people have the complete freedom to choose what makes them feel more comfortable. Painting your home in pastels for example, is a very popular style. These colours turn the property into a house with modern air and illuminates the exterior.

5. Glass and wood

One of the main characteristics of modern houses is the good lighting, either natural or artificial, so the placement of a large number of windows allows the enjoyment of a perfectly lit space. In this way, each of the decorative elements can be appreciated without any inconvenience.

6. Big heights

The two-storey wooden house has become a real estate boom, not only for the main material, but also for the new architectural designs that include large finishes with dark colors. This allows for the enjoyment of a home built with various elements that, little by little, make a modern home thanks to the small details.

7. Stone and wood

To achieve a modern finish with a combination of natural materials, the first thing to keep in mind is that wood and stone make an excellent duo, most likely because of the coldness of the stone which is countered by the warm brown of wood. Good lighting will make the design look much more sober.

8. Keeping natural hues

An infallible idea to keep the colour of the wood in good condition is to paint the entire surface with a transparent varnish. It allows both moisture and heat stay within and not deteriorate in an accelerated way, thus allowing the enjoyment of an intact façade at all times. In addition, the cost of this type of product is much lower than the cost of repair.

9. The gabled roof

A very practical way to bring a bit of modernity to wooden houses is by choosing a good architectural design, which is why wooden gabled roofs are more and more common in construction. They allow you to enjoy a house with high walls, which also allows the property to have a much more comfortable appearance.
