next facade
The image shows an exquisite architectural element of a façade in the Art Nouveau style, designed as a decorative panel. The composition is embedded in a terracotta-colored brick wall and is framed as a stylized arch with a ray-like border. The central element is an elegant turquoise niche featuring an iris in a decorative golden vase.
The compositional solution deserves special attention: the fan-shaped top with alternating purple and white rays creates a radiant effect, emphasizing the central motif. The color palette of the panel (turquoise, purple, golden) contrasts with the brick masonry of the façade, making it a bright decorative dominant. This technique was often used in early 20th century architecture to accentuate entrance areas or significant parts of the façade.
When designing the façade of a modern house, similar decorative elements can become a unique accent, giving the building individuality. It's important to properly integrate such details into the overall composition, maintaining a balance between decorative qualities and functionality. The use of ceramics or modern composite materials allows for recreating similar elements, adapting them to contemporary construction technologies.
