The presented building showcases an excellent example of mid-20th century modernist architecture with distinct functionalist features. The facade demonstrates strict geometry and rational minimalism characteristic of this style.
Special expressiveness is added to the facade by contrasting elements: a vertical tower with a chimney, horizontal window lines, and a terrace with metal railings on the second floor. Three circular porthole-like windows on the main facade add visual interest and break up the monotony of the concrete surface.
The facade is executed in a neutral beige-gray palette using concrete, which emphasizes the purity of lines and forms. The lower part of the building is finished with dark panels, creating a foundation effect and giving completeness to the composition. Ribbon windows on the first floor provide good natural lighting while maintaining the horizontal dynamics of the facade.
For a modern homeowner, such a facade can become a source of inspiration in terms of using contrasting materials, playing with geometric shapes, and implementing unconventional architectural details such as circular windows or expressive vertical elements. Particularly noteworthy is the harmonious combination of privacy and openness: the upper terrace provides a panoramic view and open space, while the main volume of the building maintains privacy and protection.
