This modern wooden house is an excellent example of contemporary barn-style architecture. The facade is fully clad with vertical wooden panels in a natural shade, creating a warm, organic look that emphasizes the building's connection with the surrounding nature.
Particularly noteworthy is the gabled roof with clean lines, characteristic of barn architecture, which gives the building a recognizable silhouette. The second floor features a triple window with wooden frames, creating an interesting accent on the facade. The lower level is distinguished by a large sliding element in the style of a barn door and panoramic glazing that reveals a cozy interior with a fireplace.
In the twilight hours, the contrast between the darkening sky and the warm light pouring from within through the windows is especially attractive. This highlights one of the main virtues of the design – the interplay between natural and artificial lighting.
When designing your own facade, it's worth paying attention to techniques such as the use of natural materials, contrasting textures (here - smooth glass and textured wood), balanced asymmetry in the placement of windows and doorways, as well as a well-thought-out lighting system that highlights architectural elements after dark.
