Before us is an exquisite example of an Art Nouveau stained glass installation integrated into a semi-cylindrical bay window structure. This architectural element showcases a masterful combination of a metal framework with decorative stained glass infill. The wrought iron grid with characteristic Art Nouveau flowing, organic curves framing the stained glass panels adds particular expressiveness to the structure.
The composition of the stained glass is built on a combination of a geometric mesh background of hexagonal elements and floral motifs — stylized flowers and plant ornaments executed in bright accent tones. The color palette includes multiple translucent shades that create a play of light in the interior when illuminated by sunlight. Such facade design is not only aesthetically appealing but also functional — it provides privacy while maintaining natural lighting.
When designing a modern private home, similar stained glass elements can be used for bay windows, entrance groups, or verandas, creating a unique facade character. Modern technologies allow recreating this style using more accessible materials and methods while preserving the aesthetics of Art Nouveau. Even fragmentary use of stained glass inserts can become a memorable accent of the exterior and a connecting element between the external and internal space of the house.
