We are looking at a minimalist addition with contemporary aesthetics integrated into an existing stone building. The façade of the extension is executed in a strict black color using slate panels that create a clear geometric structure. The key design element is an innovative folding window-transformer with an unusual hexagonal shape that can be opened outward, providing natural ventilation.
The contrast between the traditional stonework of the main structure and the modern black volume of the extension creates an expressive architectural dialogue. Large glass surfaces provide abundant natural light to the interior space while visually expanding it. The laconic façade finish is complemented by minimalist landscape design – gravel filling at the base and strict stone tiles in the pedestrian area.
In home design, a similar approach can be used to create contrasting additions to existing buildings, where monochromatic color schemes and modern materials emphasize the architectural concept. Non-standard window solutions, similar to the hexagonal folding window shown, can become not only a functional element for ventilation but also an expressive detail that gives individuality to the entire façade.
