Build with street appeal: Coastal façade trends inspired by WA living
Coastal homes are all about embracing those cool beach vibes, so trends in home facades often lean towards breezy colours and textures.
At WA Country Builders, we like to embrace the subdued blues and whites that reflect the sea and sandy hues that bring the beach to your doorstep. But we also go that little bit further, introducing weathered wood features to your home to really make a façade pop! Or, natural stone accents for a rustic look.
WA Country Builders are the leading experts when it comes to living by the seaside. With accelerated growth in sea change and tree change communities, including Dalyellup, many people are seeking homes with beach views or proximity to the ocean.
When designing a home, WA Country Builders Principal Designer Rob Kirkosvki is often inspired by the natural beauty of the West Australian coastline, designing homes that reflect a relaxed lifestyle, the perfect place to unwind, entertain and enjoy life.
Rob talks us through some of the most popular façade trends to increase a home’s kerb appeal and make a home beautiful.
- Modern beach houses: Many people are opting for contemporary, minimalist beach homes that emphasise clean lines, neutral colour palettes, and indoor-outdoor living spaces.
These homes often feature large windows, sliding glass doors, and outdoor entertaining areas to take advantage of the ocean views.
- Contemporary: Contemporary home designs in the south-west often feature sleek, modern lines and an emphasis on indoor-outdoor living spaces.
These homes often have large windows, balconies, and sliding glass doors, with front elevations that emphasise clean lines and minimalist design.
- Traditional: In the south-west region, there are also many traditional-style homes with front elevations that feature elements like gabled rooflines, dormer windows, and covered porches.
These homes often have a classic, timeless look, and are designed to blend in seamlessly with the natural surroundings. Busselton in particular has a strong vernacular of large gabled facades, similar to the iconic jetty buildings located on their wonderful beaches.
