Introduction
Hi guys and welcome to another tutorial by Diamondhackers. Todays tutorials is about modern building. Recently I have made a number of modern houses which I will reference at the end of this blog, which I recommend you view after reading this tutorial.
Planning
This is the easy bit. Planning for modern house builds is relatively simple. All you need to do is think of the shape you want to build, then draw the shape. For this example I will draw a shape that looks like this.

Then I will expand in the terrain of the area around the house pointing out entrances, pools, garages, patios ect.

Building Exterior
The building exterior is the most important and crucial element of the build as it determines the overall look and feel of your project. The exterior of any modern house is constructive out of very abstract pillars and crisscrossing bars as well as wide open widows that stretch from floor to ceiling. As demostrated.

These are the basics of the exterior and you can combine them in different ways to make great effects, for example rotate the pillars sideways :

Or even make a thin pane of glass going over two floors! The possibilities are endless, but the key to it all is depth. The depth of an object enhances its design. For example a cube looks better than a square because it is 3D if you look carefully at any house you see they always have depth. Not even a hut is completely flat.
Interior
The interior design of any modern house must be sleek and open plan. You can use upside down stairs as tables along with slabs, put stairs on sticks for bar seats, and make ovens out of a stone with a presuure plates, examples are below.
Final note
