Vertical house with cascading facade: cantilevered architecture in a forest setting

#12454. Vertical house with cascading facade: cantilevered architecture in a forest setting

Before us is an impressive example of modern architecture, presenting a vertical volume with a prominently cantilevered upper floor. The building is executed in a minimalist style with industrial elements, which is emphasized by the use of metallic vertical cladding in a silvery-gray color.

The facade demonstrates an interesting contrast between the cold metal finish of the exterior surfaces and the warm wooden soffit of the cantilevered projections, which is particularly expressively illuminated in the evening. The architect has masterfully used the interplay of volumes, creating a cascade of three levels with open terraces, each protected by light metal railings.

The upper tier with panoramic glazing and a spacious terrace under the overhanging roof deserves special attention. This technique not only visually lightens the massive structure but also creates the impression of the building floating above the surrounding autumn forest. The sloped roof adds dynamism to the entire composition.

The facade design employs stylish horizontal incisions in the form of windows of varying widths, which break up the monotony of the vertical cladding. An important detail is the external staircase connecting the levels and adding graphic quality to the entire composition.

For private home construction, several techniques can be adopted: the contrasting combination of materials (metal/wood), the use of cantilevered projections to create protected open spaces, the organization of a stepped structure with terraces, as well as the clever use of lighting to accentuate architectural elements in the evening.
