Modern Custom Home in Palatine
A modern house in Palatine, charcoal siding with ochre accent panels under a shallow shed roof, finished inside in the same restrained palette.
A modern house that stayed modern inside
Modern is easy to draw and hard to build. Flat trim, tight reveals and long roof lines leave nowhere for a framing error to hide, which is why this one got worked out on paper first. The exterior is charcoal lap siding with ochre panels, deep overhangs and black window frames.
Inside, the same discipline holds. The kitchen is shot from three angles because it is the room the house turns on. There is a family room, a hall bath and a wet room where the tile runs floor to ceiling. Nothing in the finish schedule fights anything else, which is the point of agreeing it early.

The elevation comes first, then the rooms, which hold the same tight palette rather than softening once you are through the door.
