This image showcases a modern extension to a traditional brick house. The facade of the extension features a minimalist design with vertical slats creating a rhythmic pattern and textured surface. This cladding contrasts with the traditional brickwork of the main building, establishing an interesting dialogue between historical and contemporary architectural elements.
The architectural solution is characterized by a laconic form with a curved roof, giving the structure lightness and a modern appearance. Large glazed surfaces – the panoramic door and wide window – provide excellent natural light to the interior space and create a visual connection with the garden area. The lower part of the facade is partially finished in white, creating an illusion that the volume floats above the terrace surface.
When designing the facade for your own house, several techniques from this example could be adopted: using vertical slats to create texture and rhythm, contrasting combination of materials, and balancing solid surfaces with glazed elements. This approach allows for creating a modern architectural solution that delicately fits into the existing context.
