Mid Century Modern Style House Plans

This stunning home is a tribute to the timeless elegance of mid-century modern design, a style that has captivated homeowners and architects alike for decades. Characterized by clean lines, organic forms, and an emphasis on bringing the outdoors in, mid-century modern design remains as relevant today as it was in its heyday.

One of the standout features of this home is its striking roofline. The bold, angular rooflines not only create a visually captivating exterior but also serve to enhance the interior space, allowing for high ceilings and an abundance of natural light. These architectural elements draw the eye upward, creating a sense of openness and airiness that defines the mid-century modern aesthetic. The extended flat roofs, a hallmark of mid-century design, further emphasize the horizontal lines and blend the structure seamlessly with the surrounding landscape, creating sheltered outdoor spaces that extend the living area.

Adding to the home’s unique character is a beautifully crafted circular window—a feature that blends both form and function. This distinctive window not only serves as an eye-catching design element but also frames the surrounding landscape like a piece of art, seamlessly integrating the indoors with the natural world outside. The circular shape softens the angular lines of the architecture, providing a harmonious balance central to the mid-century modern philosophy.

Inside, the home celebrates mid-century modern principles, with open-concept spaces that flow effortlessly from one room to the next. Large windows and glass doors invite natural light to flood the interiors, blurring the boundaries between indoor and outdoor living. Using natural materials such as wood and stone further enhances the connection to nature, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.

In this mid-century modern home, timeless design meets forward-thinking innovation. Its iconic rooflines and seamless integration of indoor and outdoor spaces create a living experience that is both elegant and enduring—a perfect harmony of past, present, and future.

    OUR HOMES ARE EXTREMELY DURABLE AND DESIGNED FOR THE CLIMATE

    Whether your home is in Park City, Utah, Alaska, Revelstoke or Whistler, BC, Big Sky, Montana, or Lake Tahoe, California, Purcell embraces demanding climates. Our homes are designed and built to withstand the heaviest snowfall and extreme weather, including high hurricane winds and seismic activity along the coastlines of British Columbia, Washington, Oregon, and California.

    We also specialize in oceanfront and lakefront design and build projects, addressing floodplain concerns and strict waterfront setback requirements. By utilizing cantilevering, we maximize site use and enhance views, ensuring that each home not only withstands nature’s challenges but also harmonizes beautifully with its surroundings.

    Our expertise is conventional wood framing, adhering to all building codes, including the particularly stringent codes of British Columbia, Canada, and California, USA. Our buildings are engineered, plan-stamped, and inspected on-site, receiving final certification from structural engineers. Built to meet rigorous live load requirements, our homes are prepared for all environmental conditions, ensuring our homes are at the forefront of safety, durability, and beauty in any setting.
