BUILDING A HOUSE, HOME INSPO, MOYER NEW BUILD

Modern roof line and black + wood exterior home | New Build

April 17, 2021

In my previous blog post, I talked about MODERN EXTERIOR OPTIONS and how we asked our draftsman, Tony, to draw up an idea I had for a modern roofline for the new house. Well, we received our 3d exterior sketch so I have to share!

As a reminder, here’s what Tony originally sent us (see this BLOG POST for more details of the process):

Here’s the sketch I had done (many of you like the black + wood exterior combo vs all black exterior) and sent Tony to draw up:

Drumroll please………

HERE IS WHAT HE SENT US TODAY! I LOVE IT! Here’s the front view of this modern exterior.

modern home - black exterior - black and wood exterior - new build - building a house - new build journey - iowa - modern roof lines

It’s broken up into 3 different sections for more depth. Here’s a better look (**and a new 3D image we received on 4/20/21):

modern home - black exterior - black and wood exterior - new build - building a house - new build journey - iowa - modern roof lines
modern home - black exterior - black and wood exterior - new build - building a house - new build journey - iowa - modern roof lines

With this drawing below, you get a look of the back side of the house exterior that includes the screened in porch. You can read our CHANGES FOR THE NEW BUILD and learn that sometimes “do it later” may never actually happen. Oh the things you realize after building a house!

modern home - black exterior - black and wood exterior - new build - building a house - new build journey - iowa - modern roof lines
modern home - black exterior - black and wood exterior - new build - building a house - new build journey - iowa - modern roof lines

I’m still debating on if I want to do all black exterior or a black and wood combo like these images or do a wood accent on the front porch only. UGH…I like how all 3 options look!

What do you think? 1) Wood on the center portion of the house like in these images OR 2) wood in the front covered porch only?

    I love these images and would keep it similar vs just the porch area. It adds depth to the all black. So fun.

    The idea of the wood accent porch would help draw a person’s eye to where the entry is. And also, black chairs, rockers or a bench would really stand out against the wood accent. I just think there is more options for porch decor with the wood accent being on the front porch. Just my thoughts. Have fun with it all!

Entering my weighted vest era! Comment VEST, and I’ll message you the link to this specific one that’s currently on sale! Wear walking or running either outside or on the treadmill!  A suggestion is wearing a vest around 5-10% of your body weight.

*Comment below if this is helpful because I can do more to save you time and energy figuring out what to order & make for dinner.

This fed 5 of us and is always a huge hit! Most of us had 2 each. I think Hendrix (my teenager) might have had 3 sandwiches. You can make 12 sandwiches with all of the items ordered but most Canadian bacon packages only come with 9-10 slices. Make all 12 and store any extra in the fridge to have for breakfast the next few days. Just heat up and enjoy!

House Diaries #1: 
Starting a series because why not? 😉 That one time we had a tv that came down from the ceiling because I didn’t want it on the fireplace!  I had such a modern style back then compared to what my style is now. The concept was to hide the tv when we weren’t watching on it since it was on a mechanism that moved it up into the ceiling.  Well, 90% of the time it was down because I didn’t feel like grabbing the remote, push the button, and wait 10 seconds for the tv to go up. I do wish we would’ve gotten a bigger tv.  This was a 55” and I think a 65” would’ve been better!

It was Faith Statement Night for my 8th grader, Hendrix! ✝️ Loved listening to him talk about his growing faith through the years and how he’ll continue his relationship with God.
