metal clad houses

Often inspired by agricultural or industrial buildings, metal siding houses also showcase the way contemporary architecture can sometimes blur the line between design and sculpture. On this page, you can discover imaginative projects completed by architecture firms from all over the world and sited in areas as varied as desert landscapes and urban settings. While individual and one of a kind, these modern exterior houses all have something in common: their metal cladding. Geometric forms, organic silhouettes, and modern takes on the traditional barn or agricultural shed typology give these modern exterior houses a distinctive look.
