A-Frame House: Design Tips

A-Frame Houses are more popular in Romania, thanks to their simple and remarkable design. These houses are an original choice for both permanent homes and holiday/rental cottages. Such a construction fits perfectly into a mountain or forest area and can be decorated with natural materials such as wood and stone. Here are the benefits, plus some interior decoration tips. 

What is an A-Frame House?

To make it easier to understand the concept of an A-Frame House, we have prepared a list of the most important features of the construction:

• A-shaped, symmetrical structure
• open space interior and usually a living room decorated with natural stone plus wood, leather, and natural fabrics
• one story, or 1-2 attics - each upper floor, with its smaller usable area
• the A-shaped roof has a steep slope, on 2 of the sides
• the facade and rear usually have large windows
• may have a veranda or terrace

Advantages of A-type houses

One of the main benefits of an A-Frame Wooden House project consists of its unique design. Besides, it will be easy to erect, with low costs compared to other types of houses/holiday cottages. The structure is strong and suitable for areas with strong winds or heavy rainfall. However, you should plan the interior layout and interior design carefully. 

House type A interior: interior design ideas

Besides the fact that A-Frame Home’s exterior is special, you can choose to have a remarkable interior design also. We recommend focusing on natural elements: stone, wood, metal elements, carpets, and fluffy quilts made of cotton, wool, and other sustainable fabrics. Also, the color range should be as simple as possible, with sallow shades, besides tones of green, grey, or blue, similar to the ambiance. Here are more inspiring tips. 

Marble flooring

You don't need many items to furnish an A-Frame House, but those need to be selected carefully. Go for premium quality finishes, to be able to create a special ambiance without cluttering the space. One tip to clad the floor with natural stone. The marble is ideal for a modern or minimalist design.

Accent Wall

If you want to make a dull room attractive and interesting, add an accent wall with travertine or another natural stone. It can be in the dining area, next to the living room fireplace, behind the bedroom bed, in the bathroom, or on the stairs. Dark wood furniture houses are perfectly matched by bright shade tiles, such as gold, cream, or light grey. For a 3D effect, choose ribbed, splitfaced, curved, or brushed and chiseled products. 

Vessel Sink

Do you want a modern, sumptuous bathroom? Choose Stone Vessel Sinks, to refresh a dull interior design. Besides, you can opt for a freestanding marble bathtub or a travertine shower tray. With such details, not only that you have a remarkable design, but you will also increase the value of your property.

Natural stone countertop for kitchen or bathroom

Besides the marble kitchen countertop, you can have a stone countertop for the island, bathroom sink, dining table, or for coffee table. If the surface is properly sealed and maintained, it will not get stained and will preserve the look for an extended period. 

Natural stone decorations

For an A-Frame House decoration project, you can have many interior or exterior decorations made of stone, such as:

• decorative vase, made from grey or black marble, classic travertine, latte, red, or yellow travertine
• Nero or Lilac Marble wine cooler
• sandstone lamp for the bedroom or living room
• marble trash can
• square or rectangular serving tray
• candle holder
• black marble soap dispenser
