#12459. Tudor Facade with Terracotta Tiling: An Elegant Blend of Tradition and Individuality

Before us stands a magnificent example of a Tudor-style country house with pronounced elements of American interpretation of this historical style. The facade attracts attention with its rich terracotta tiling that covers not only the roof but also a significant portion of the walls, creating a monolithic, cohesive appearance.

The characteristic steep triangular gable with a small diamond-shaped window serves as the dominant feature of the facade. Particularly noteworthy is the bay window with elegant panes that visually breaks the monotony of the facade and creates an interesting play of light and shadow. The brick masonry of the chimney and certain facade elements adds textural contrast, harmoniously blending with the overall color scheme.

The facade also demonstrates a fine balance between symmetry and asymmetry: while the overall composition is asymmetrical, individual elements such as the bay window and windows are symmetrically organized. The oval window on the lower level adds an additional element of visual interest and reflects the Tudor influence.

For contemporary private construction, this house offers several interesting techniques: using a single material for both roof and walls creates a cohesive image, expressive architectural elements (bay window, gable) form a memorable silhouette, and the combination of different textures (tiling and brick) enriches visual perception. The property is beautifully landscaped with a swimming pool and brick fencing that maintains the overall architectural style.
