This mansion exemplifies magnificent neo-traditional architecture with French country influences. The facade is clad in light beige brick, giving the structure an elegant and refined appearance. The main composition of the house is asymmetrical, with protruding volumes and multi-level roofs creating a dynamic silhouette.
A distinctive feature of the facade is the two-tiered terrace with graceful arched openings on the lower level and an open porch with an overhang on the upper level. The monumental staircase with stone balustrades descending from the terrace to the garden adds grandeur to the composition. Windows of various sizes, many with mullioned panes, are framed with understated casings, characteristic of traditional American style.
The roof is made of natural slate with soft color transitions, complementing the natural palette of the facade. Chimneys projecting above the roof are not only functional but also serve as vertical accents in the composition. Stone elements are used in the facade decoration, creating a textural contrast with the brickwork.
For your own home, several techniques could be borrowed: the combination of different textures (stone and brick), asymmetrical composition to create visual interest, arched elements to add sophistication, and a well-designed terrace that connects the house with the landscape. It's also important to note the harmonious correspondence between the architecture and the surrounding nature, as implemented in this project.
