Upgrade Your House Numbers for a Modern Look

This quick and affordable project makes a big visual impact. Replacing outdated or faded house numbers with sleek, modern ones instantly elevates your exterior and helps guests (and delivery drivers!) find your home. Here's an easy way to upgrade your house numbers for a modern look:

Start by choosing a font and finish that complement your home’s architecture. Clean lines in matte black, brushed brass, or stainless steel are popular and work with most styles—from mid-century modern to farmhouse. Consider mounting the numbers on a wooden plaque for contrast, or install them directly onto brick or siding using a drill and wall anchors.

Think about placement: horizontally along a beam, vertically beside the door, or staggered for a modern look. Ensure the numbers are visible from the street and well-lit at night. If possible, add a small spotlight for nighttime visibility.
