Modern Farm House Design Ideas: The Benefits

Benefits of Our Oblique Cladding

Modern Finish

The best part about the Oblique Cladding is its modern and contemporary finish and the clean lines that provide a simple yet bold form, really showcasing the new age look for new builds, renovations, and home restoration projects.

Long Lasting

Specifically built for the Australian climate, the James Hardie Oblique Cladding provides nothing short of a lasting design, withstanding the everchanging conditions throughout the year. Rain, hail, or sunshine, your Oblique Cladding is going to remain beautiful.

Fire Resistant

Living in Queensland, it’s better to be safe than sorry – which is why the James Hardie Oblique Cladding adheres to bushfire attack level requirements to BAL 40. This Oblique Cladding, specifically, offers a Fire Rating Level of up to 60 minutes.

Versatile Finishes

Coming to you pre-primed, the Oblique Cladding is ready to be painted in your favourite exterior colour, allowing you to have completed design freedom when recreating or building a new home. Whether you want something chic and simple, or bold and bright, the choice is truly yours.

Modern Farm House Design Ideas & Aesthetics

Keep it Simple with Clean Lines

The trick to homing in on that farm house look is to keep the lines of the cladding simple and clean. Whilst you might be tempted by the abundance of design choices out there, if you truly want to nail the farm house look, it’s best to keep it streamlined right around your home for consistency. Doing this, and pairing the home with wide windows that let the outside in is going to give you the classic charm of a farm house home, with the added touch of modernism.

Paint with Natural Tones

In the way of exterior paint colours, a lot of farm house palettes consist of greys, creams, whites, and even French blue. This brings together the touch of nature, allowing the outside of a home to perfectly intertwine with the property which, traditionally, was farmland. There is also room here for moss, antique, and wooden toned finishes, if you’re wanting to add a unique twist to your home, rather than going the simplistic route.

Create a Complementary Garden

To tie in with the exterior of the home, cladding looks gorgeous with gardens surrounding the structure. Consider using timber for a garden or raised garden bed around your home – we often see people build the garden beds right around the exterior, flush against the home, to bring to life the greenery against the beautiful backdrop of Oblique Cladding. These two things are a match made in heaven, and work to showcase both fundamentals at once.
