Before us stands an excellent example of a traditional Scandinavian house, finished in the characteristic red color — "Falun red paint", historically used in Sweden and other Nordic countries. The facade of the building demonstrates a harmonious combination of traditional wooden frame with vertical cladding and modern architectural elements.
The architectural composition of the house is built asymmetrically, yet maintains visual balance. The central part is distinguished by a gabled roof with a characteristic pointed pediment, covered with traditional tiles in varying shades, which gives the roofing depth and texture. The facade is adorned with white decorative elements, creating a striking contrast with the main red color of the walls.
Special attention is drawn to the window solutions: semi-circular arched windows on the side sections of the facade, large panoramic windows in the central part and on the side extension. This variety of forms creates an interesting visual rhythm. The central panoramic window has a semi-circular shape in the upper part, adding elegance to the strict lines of the facade.
The right wing of the building represents a modern extension with a flat roof and large windows, demonstrating a successful example of integrating contemporary elements into traditional architecture. A small balcony on the second floor with white railings adds functionality and aesthetic appeal.
In designing your own facade, you can use the following techniques borrowed from this project: contrasting combination of the main wall color with white finishing elements; combining different window shapes to create an expressive facade; using traditional materials in modern interpretation; thoughtful combination of symmetry and asymmetry; integration of panoramic glazing to improve lighting and connection with the surrounding landscape.
