As a means of dealing with the escalating real estate market
prices in Australia, a lot of customers are utilising their property space to
build a second storey home. As opposed to an expansive single storey home, a
double storey home offers twice the room space, among other advantages. Trends come and go every year, so the
appearance of a typical two storey home in Australia has long morphed from what
it was in the ’80s or the ’90s. 2 storeyhouse design trends of today try to balance practical utility with
aesthetic appeal, producing interesting
results.
i. Elevated foundation
Most residential homes feature a façade; and, as far as
facades go, there are several varieties to choose from; façade embellishments
are excellent for curb appeal. Elevated foundation façades are one of the most
practical façade designs that are giving Australia’s new double-storey homes a
lot of appeal in the market.
If your home has a sloping porch or driveway, then a façade
staircase can bring out the aesthetic appeal of a 2 storey house design. They
are stylish, and also help in levelling the interior of your home with the
outside.
ii. Mix-up design materials
A lot of customers are abandoning the time-tested design
materials used for home exteriors in favour of more experimental design
statements. Mixed materials offer an unorthodox approach and provide an
enormous amount of appeal as a result of the contrast between the elements.
A lot of homeowners are rooting for wood and concrete, or
concrete and plaster along with light metals, etc. Home builders in Sydney are creating a balance between light and
dark, industrial and urban design elements, for artistic and kitschy
appearances.
iii. Traditional design with urban touches
The traditional white picket fence home design is a timeless
classic, and second storey homes with classic home designs still draw a lot of
attention. But, today’s home designers are doing over the classic traditional
home design with small urban embellishments to offer a brilliant ‘best of both
worlds’ feel.
Home
builders in Sydney
are pairing the classic home design with mixed design materials; some are
utilising space to offer a condensed seating area or porch-area, which was
uncommon for traditional homes of the past. Muted colours or contrasting dark
colours on pure white are a few standard colour templates.
