What Is a Modern Front Door?
A contemporary design house or an architecturally designed home is considered a 'modern style'. A modern home has large areas of glass, often with floor-to-ceiling windows to allow plenty of light inside. The exterior is usually a smooth rendered finish, combined with either timber cladding or stone. Some traditional stone-built buildings can be styled with modern features to create a unique style with aluminium window frames and slab doors. Modernist homes are usually large detached homes and are highly desirable.
A modern-style house may have an oversized feature door made from glass or solid timber. Natural wood finishes are popular as a balance to the clean modern styling. Aluminium or composite modern front door colours are usually dark grey or black. Modern front doors work best with contemporary-styled houses but can also suit the 90s/00s new builds. Georgian, Victorian and Edwardian houses look best with a periodic style of door.
To recreate the modern front door style, we recommend one of our contemporary-styled composite doors in dark grey or a glazed door with an aluminium frame.
