We recently completed a custom modern-style home in the Gainesville area, featuring several distinctive design elements that define its contemporary aesthetic.
One standout feature is the flat-faced cabinetry, crafted by Straw Woodworks, known for their sleek, minimalist designs using wood skins—an essential touch in modern interiors.
The home also incorporates casement and picture windows, which differ from the traditional single- and double-hung styles found in country or craftsman homes. These windows use large, uninterrupted panes of glass that create a clean, open look with minimal visual obstruction.
Another unique element is the use of architectural aluminum door awnings over all exterior double doors. These square awnings not only elevate the home’s visual appeal but also offer practical weather protection for the entryways.
