#10868. Minimalist facade with contrasting white walls and glass pavilion

This is an expressive example of modern architecture where clean geometric forms combine with contrasting materials. The facade presents a laconic composition of white plastered volumes and a dark glass pavilion on the second floor. This architectural technique creates the impression of a floating volume above the main building structure.

The first floor is executed in white with crisp rectangular windows framed by dark borders, creating a striking contrast and emphasizing the building's geometry. The large glass surfaces of the upper floor ensure maximum interaction between interior spaces and the surrounding nature, reflecting the tree canopies. The entrance is accentuated by a glass door with vertical elements and a wide concrete approach.

The architect skillfully played with proportions and materials: the combination of smooth white walls, dark accents, and abundant glass creates a contemporary yet harmonious image. Minimalist wall sconces highlight the architectural purity of the design. This house is an excellent example of how contrasting materials and precise geometric forms can be used to create an expressive facade in modern style.

When designing your own house, you might adopt techniques such as: contrasting material combinations (plaster and glass), using cantilevered protruding elements to create visual dynamics, distinct framing of window openings to give structure to the facade, and integrating the building into the surrounding landscape through reflective surfaces.
