Your mailbox is often one of the first things people see when they pass by your home, so make a good impression with a modern mailbox that suits your personal style. At Houzz, you’ll find an array of thoughtful designs that are a world apart from the basic box your home probably came with. Sleek, angular and a little bit playful, these versions are meant to complete your modern home. Whether you’re going for a mid-century look or you hope to take things in a contemporary direction, read on to learn how to incorporate a modern mailbox into your home design.
Define Your Style
Modern means different things to different people, and there really are a number of ways to interpret the style. Today, the line between a mid-century modern mailbox and a more contemporary one can be hard to parse. But if you’re going for a truly retro look, colors are a must! If you’re looking for just the right mailbox for a modern farmhouse, opt for an all-black version with big house numbers. You’ve got options — remember to choose whatever works best with your home.
Wall-Mounted or Freestanding?
Next, you should decide how and where you plan to install your new mailbox. Do you prefer a freestanding modern mailbox on a post? Or would a wall-mounted version close to your front door work better? Typically, if you’ve got a large front yard, it makes sense to get your mail curbside, in which case it would likely be mounted on a post. Oftentimes, it looks best to pair the boxy shape of a modern contemporary mailbox with an equally boxy and wide supporting base.
On the other hand, if you have a stoop entrance to your home or live in a dense area, it can make sense to mount it on the wall next to your front door. You’ll be able to easily get the mail, and square or rectangular modern mailboxes look natural mounted against the wall.
Pick a Material and Finish
Now’s your chance to choose a finish and material that’ll really suit your home. Black modern mailboxes made of metal are classic, as they’re neutral, sleek and go with almost any house color and siding material. Stainless steel versions are another popular option. For a touch of retro style, opt for a white design with a bright green or blue front panel.
If you’re going with a post-mounted mailbox, consider adding a custom base to match your home’s siding. Setting your mailbox atop a wooden slat base is perfect for achieving a modern organic look. If you happen to have brick siding (like on a mid-century ranch home), using the same material for the post will tie everything together.
