The modern farmhouse to be built in Houston would have vertical board and batten siding, steel windows, shutters, window planter boxes, a standing seam metal roof, and a cupola with, of course, a weathervane on top. The detached garage in back would be connected to the house with a covered walkway and contain a second-story apartment to accommodate guests.
