#13702. Modern country house façade with harmonious combination of stone and wood

This impressive country house represents an excellent example of a modern interpretation of traditional architecture. The façade features a harmonious combination of natural materials: wooden shingles and natural stone, creating an organic connection with the surrounding forest landscape.

Of particular note is the compositional solution of the façade with an expressive stone chimney that becomes the visual dominant and anchor of the entire structure. The architect masterfully used the contrast of textures – the smoothness of glass is juxtaposed with the roughness of stonework and the warmth of wooden elements. Façade design in this style demonstrates a thoughtful approach to details and materials.

The glass railings of terraces and balconies give the building a contemporary look without disrupting its connection to nature. The horizontal lines of wooden cornices and terraces are balanced by the verticals of window openings and the stone chimney. The multi-level structure of the house with cascading terraces blends organically into the topography of the site.

When creating a similar façade for your own home, it's worth paying attention to the following techniques: combining natural materials, using textural contrasts, carefully balancing solid and glazed surfaces, and integrating architecture into the landscape. This approach allows for creating a building that appears simultaneously substantial and light, traditional and modern.
