#10305. Eco-friendly dual-volume facade with integrated solar panels

Before us is a modern private residence that seamlessly combines minimalist aesthetics with eco-friendly solutions. The facade presents an interesting dialogue between two architectural volumes: the upper part, with its traditional gabled roof covered in horizontal panels in a neutral beige tone, and the lower part—a white cubic base featuring large glass surfaces.

Particularly noteworthy is the integration of solar panels into the sloped roof, which become an integral part of the architectural appearance rather than merely a utilitarian addition. The rhythmic arrangement of the panels harmonizes with the linear texture of the roofing material, creating a unified composition.

The facade glazing on the second floor with a French balcony and metal railing adds lightness to the upper volume, while the large panoramic windows on the ground floor visually connect the interior with the landscaped grounds. The wooden deck in front of the house creates a smooth transition between architecture and landscape.

In designing a facade for your own home, you could adopt the principle of contrasting volumes, the use of natural materials in finishing, the integration of energy-saving technologies into the architectural appearance, as well as proportional glazing to balance privacy with connection to the surroundings.
