#15571. Elegant facade of an Art Nouveau mansion with neoclassical elements

Before us stands an exquisite mansion in the late Art Nouveau style with neoclassical elements. The facade features elegant symmetry and an expressive central section, accentuated by a vertical projection (risalit) that culminates in a balcony at the attic level. The mansion has a characteristic mansard roof with red tiles, giving the building a recognizable European appearance.

The facade is executed in light tones, which emphasizes the architectural details: pilasters, cornices, and decorative elements. The window openings have classical proportions and frames. Particular attention is drawn to the central entrance with its monumentality and decorative design, including small relief inserts. The facade composition combines austerity and gracefulness of lines characteristic of early 20th century architecture.

The fence made of metal rods with stone pillars harmonizes perfectly with the overall style of the building, creating a unified architectural ensemble. In modern private construction, one can borrow techniques such as symmetrical placement of window openings, use of vertical accents on the facade, combination of light walls with contrasting roofing, as well as delicate application of decorative elements to give individuality to the building without overwhelming it with details.
