Mid century design inspired house numbers

The numbers on our house are from HouseNumbers.com

One of the first house projects we took on when we moved to our Streng Bros home was to replace the house numbers with ones that fit the architecture style of our mid century home.

Updating your house numbers is an easy and inexpensive way to increase the curb appeal of your mid century home.

You know what you are getting when you order from House Numbers.

This company offers their aluminum numbers in vertical and horizontal templates, a variety of colors, and modern and contemporary font choices and sizes.

We especially appreciated the installation videos on their website.

If you are looking to add a bit of flair to your house numbers consider immortalizing your home address in a cursive script from Go Home Numbers.

And for something a bit kitschy, check out these address designs from Atomic Avocado Designs.

If you are also replacing your mail box, you can often order house numbers from the same company. See our article about mailboxes for more information.

We would love to see your house numbers. Send a photo to scott@mcmsac.com and we will add them to this article.
