#10059. Modern two-story house with contrasting facade and panoramic glazing

This modern residential house is a magnificent example of minimalist architecture dominated by clean geometric shapes and contrasting facade solutions. The building demonstrates a harmonious combination of white and gray-blue volumes, creating a dynamic composition.

The facade is divided into several visual zones: the central part features gray-blue horizontal siding, while the side volumes are finished in smooth white stucco. Particularly noteworthy are the large panoramic windows that create a rhythmic pattern across the facade. The abundance of glass not only provides excellent natural lighting to the interior spaces but also creates a spectacular glow in the evening when the interior is illuminated with warm light.

An expressive architectural element is the spacious covered deck that seamlessly connects the interior of the house with the surrounding landscape. White columns supporting the terrace roof add lightness to the structure and enhance the sense of airiness in the overall composition. The wooden deck with wide steps creates a pleasant contrast with the white and gray surfaces of the facade.

In designing your own home, you could employ similar techniques: contrasting combinations of facade materials, large windows in aluminum frames, cantilevered roof extensions that create interplays of light and shadow, and the integration of open terraces with the main volume of the building. Such solutions will help create a modern, stylish, and functional facade that will remain elegant and relevant for many years.
