L-shape Modular Home Designs & Floorplans
With wings to hug the outdoors, these designs embrace the landscape, giving homes a powerful connection to habitat.
While style is an important aspect of context, what’s crucial is a clever plan. An L-shaped house plan creates a layout that works hard to create indoor-outdoor harmony and provide internal spaces with plenty of views of the backyard.
In fact, what this L-shape provides is an incomplete outdoor room. The room is formed by the inside corner of the exterior walls, which reaches out with two arms, extending in opposite directions to wrap around the green space, forming a private, secluded yard.
Read on to view 5 L-shaped Arkular designs that just make sense.
The Advantages of Choosing an L-shaped Modular Floorplan
Aside from its ability to provide brilliant connections to the environment, an L-shape design has plenty of additional benefits.
It’s geared towards families, with its easy indoor-outdoor design. It is perfect not just for kids to learn more inside, but also for parents to keep a keen eye on their children during their explorative ages.
This corner plan makes the most of natural passive heating & cooling techniques. With considered orientation, it’s an excellent shape to reap the benefits of cross ventilation and solar gains.
By doing this, specific zoned areas of home are flooded with sunlight at the right time of day or season and naturally cooled if required and help to create a bright and inviting floor plan.
1. Jindabyne House – a Contemporary Bush Design
A considered yet contemporary bush design, the Jindabyne House respects and appreciates the constantly evolving environment in which it is situated.
An idyllic place for entertaining and living, the home offers respite from the rugged alpine terrain during the cooler months, whilst also providing a central hub to explore the delights of the Snowy Mountains region.
Reflecting the warmth and familiarity of an alpine cabin, the home is clad in Japanese burnt timber, with the deep tones complementing and contrasting against the white snow and providing durability against the harsh Australian elements. The home is entirely off-grid, including a 25,000L water tank and 15kw solar system.

Set delicately amongst the coastal landscape, Arkular’s latest modular home is a relaxing retreat inspired by the iconic Banksia integrifolia native to the area.
Reminiscent of the unique sculptural form of the natural flora, the segmented façade is symbolic of the intricate serrated leaves, with the design offering intrigue and delight through its distinct architectural identity.

5. Flinders House – An Open Plan Home with Heart
