#13152. Modern wooden pavilion with slatted facade by the water

The image showcases a modern interpretation of a traditional country house form situated by water. The architectural solution is distinguished by a minimalist approach and expressive geometry. The main volume of the building takes the shape of a classic gabled house, however, the facade design has been radically reimagined through the use of vertical wooden slats.

The pavilion's facade is characterized by a rhythmic alternation of vertical wooden elements, creating a semi-transparent shell around the glazed inner volume. This solution not only forms a unique architectural appearance but also regulates natural lighting, creating an interplay of light and shadow inside the space. Particularly interesting is the technique of using the same material and rhythmic structure for both walls and roof, creating the impression of a solid sculptural form.

In the background, a traditional building with a tiled roof is visible, creating a dialogue between contemporary architecture and historical context. The pavilion partially hangs over the water body, which enhances its aesthetic impact through reflection in the water. The open terrace with minimalist furniture provides a space for relaxation with views of the surrounding nature.

Similar techniques in facade design can be used in your own home: vertical slats as a means of creating visual lightness of the building, integration of architecture with natural surroundings, use of reflective surfaces to expand visual space, as well as harmonious combination of modern forms with traditional architectural typology.
