#17167. Modern country house with a combined facade of stone and light cladding

Before us is a striking example of modern country architecture harmoniously integrated into the picturesque landscape. The house is a two-story structure with a thoughtfully designed facade that combines several key materials: light horizontal cladding, natural stone, and a silvery metal roof.

A distinctive feature of the facade is its compositional diversity. The lower part of the house is faced with irregularly shaped natural stone, creating a strong visual foundation and adding textural contrast. The upper level is finished with light horizontal panels that visually expand the space. Protective awnings are installed above some windows, giving the facade not only functionality but also additional expressiveness.

The building's architecture includes several volumes of different heights: the main two-story block, an attached garage, and transitional zones. The metal roof with clean lines gives the structure completeness and a contemporary look while providing reliable protection from precipitation. Projecting terraces and canopies create a play of light and shadow on the facade, enriching its visual perception.

An important element of the exterior is the well-thought-out open spaces: a terrace with a canopy (presumably with solar panels), covered verandas, and patios. These areas not only expand the living space but also create a smooth transition between the house and the surrounding landscape.

When designing your own facade, it's worth noting the successful technique of combining different materials, creating visual interest without overwhelming complexity. The combination of stone and light cladding gives the house both solidity and lightness. It also demonstrates well how functional elements (canopies, awnings, terraces) can become important decorative accents of the facade.
