The image showcases an elegant modern courtyard of a private residence with minimalist yet expressive architecture. Particularly striking is the pergola with a geometric perforated pattern that creates an impressive play of light and shadow on the white facade wall and along the walkway.
The building facade is executed in a laconic manner — white plastered walls contrast with black window frames of full-size glass doors, providing unobstructed communication between the interior space and the outdoor relaxation area. The perforated canopy not only serves as a functional element providing protection from the sun but also becomes an architectural feature that gives the facade a distinctive rhythm and texture.
In the background, there is a minimalist relaxation area with an open fireplace integrated into a monolithic metal structure with a vertical chimney. The sandy-colored brick wall combined with the metal element of the fireplace creates a warm, cozy contrast to the cold geometry of the perforated canopy. This composition emphasizes the harmony between different materials: glass, metal, brick, and plaster coexist in a single space without disrupting the conceptual integrity.
For your own home, such a technique with perforated elements can be adapted not only in canopies but also in screens for zoning space, decorative panels, or fences. The main advantage is obtaining a dynamic play of light that changes throughout the day, creating ever-new light patterns that enliven the facade and surrounding area.
