#17159. Cantilevered Concrete House with Minimalist Facade and Green Roof

This impressive example of modern architecture represents a cantilevered concrete residence masterfully integrated into the surrounding landscape. The building facade, made of raw concrete, showcases a minimalist aesthetic with clean lines and strict geometry. Particularly notable are the large panoramic windows that create a sense of transparency and blur the boundary between interior and exterior spaces.

The building design employs a multi-level principle: the upper floor with a green roof and swimming pool extends over the lower level, creating a dramatic cantilevered effect emphasized by slender supports. The combination of concrete surfaces with extensive glazing and metal railings creates a contemporary industrial character, softened by the inclusion of greenery.

The facade design incorporates techniques that can be adapted for private housing: the contrasting interplay between heavy concrete elements and lightweight glass partitions; integration of greenery on the roof and terraces to soften the brutality of concrete; use of multi-level planes to create visual interest; and application of natural concrete textures that harmoniously blend with the surrounding environment.

This project demonstrates how modern homes can not only stand out with their design but also organically fit into the natural context, offering a unique combination of bold architectural form and functionality.
