The image showcases a remarkable architectural ensemble that demonstrates a harmonious combination of traditional rural construction and contemporary trends. The complex is based around a traditional brick house with a characteristic thatched roof, which is organically integrated with a modern wooden extension.
The facade of the historical part of the building is made of red brick with neat masonry and decorative arched elements above the window openings. The traditional appearance is emphasized by a high conical thatched roof with a chimney. White window frames create an expressive contrast with the dark red brick. A notable element is the modern panoramic glazing on the ground floor, which is delicately embedded in the historical structure, framed by wooden elements.
The modern extension represents an impressive example of bioclimatic architecture with a rhythmic vertical wooden facade that smoothly transitions into the roof. Vertical wooden slats create a play of light and shadow, while also providing visual permeability. The integration of solar panels into the sloped roof of the extension demonstrates attention to energy efficiency. Glass facade elements alternate with wooden ones, creating a rhythmic visual pattern.
This project highlights several facade design techniques that can be adapted for private construction: the use of contrasting materials to accentuate different volumes of the building; vertical wooden framing as a way to create visual rhythm and filter light; integration of panoramic glazing into traditional forms to enhance the connection between the interior and the surrounding landscape; organic connection of new volumes with old ones through mediating materials (in this case, wood).
