Art Nouveau Wooden Mansion: Harmony of Carved Facade and Stone Foundation

#11195. Art Nouveau Wooden Mansion: Harmony of Carved Facade and Stone Foundation

This is a magnificent example of a wooden mansion in the Art Nouveau style with elements of Russian wooden architecture. The facade of the building is a masterfully executed two-story structure, where the first floor is faced with stone, and the second - with elegantly processed wood. The semi-circular completion in the central part with fan-shaped glazing, resembling a shell or sun rays, gives the facade special expressiveness.

The wooden carving on the facade demonstrates a high level of craftsmanship: ornamental elements, openwork decor of the cornice and balcony create a sense of lightness and sophistication. The color scheme of the facade emphasizes its structure - dark brown wood effectively contrasts with the light stone base. Large windows with wooden frames provide good natural lighting to the interior.

The second-floor balcony with carved wooden railings deserves special attention, as it not only performs a functional role but also becomes an important decorative element. The entrance group with double wooden doors and glazing organically fits into the overall composition of the facade.

When designing modern facades, one can be inspired by such a combination of materials, use the principle of texture contrast (stone and wood), apply decorative elements in the upper part of the building to create an expressive silhouette, and also pay attention to the proportional ratio of window openings and blank wall sections.
