The image showcases an element of decorative facade design in the form of a Corten steel metal panel. The panel features a warm brownish-red hue, characteristic of this material which develops a natural oxidation patina over time.
What gives this element special artistic value is the perforated pattern depicting stylized silhouettes of dandelions or similar plants with spherical inflorescences. The figures of varying heights create a dynamic composition, while the cutout openings allow for an interplay of light and shadow, adding depth and expressiveness to the facade.
This technique of using perforation in metal panels is becoming increasingly popular in contemporary architecture, combining functionality with artistic expression. For private housing, such elements can serve as decorative partitions, parts of fencing, screens for technical areas, or aesthetic additions to verandas and terraces.
The organic quality of the plant motifs softens the industrial nature of the metal, creating a harmonious dialogue between nature and modern building materials—a technique that can be successfully implemented when designing the facade of one's own home.
