Modern farmhouse exteriors have really come a long way and have evolved so much, especially in just the last 12-18 months. When I was in Salt Lake City during the Parade of Homes Tour this last year, I was absolutely blown away by how builders are taking design elements of traditional modern farmhouse exteriors and creating a whole new trend in home design.
Of course, just like anything in design/architecture, styles always evolve and one of the reasons I went to Salt Lake City was to see for myself this evolution that I had been noticing at a distance. Salt Lake area builders/architects have been leading the way the last couple of years in home exterior trends. The Salt Lake area is also experiencing a huge home building boom and is one the fastest growing areas in the U.S. area right now.
