#1825. Modernist facade with decorative terracotta window framing and artistic wrought iron grille

The image shows an elegant window frame executed in a style reminiscent of Catalan Modernism or early Art Nouveau architecture. The window is framed with terracotta-pink brickwork, forming an expressive architectural element against the light-colored facade.

The upper part of the window opening is designed with a semicircular arch featuring a decorative cross-shaped ventilation element at the top. The brick framing creates a distinct outline, emphasizing the window's shape and adding characteristic texture and depth to the building's facade.

Particular attention is drawn to the wrought iron grille protecting the window. It is crafted with high artistic skill and displays floral motifs typical of the Art Nouveau style. The upper part of the grille is adorned with elegant curls and floral elements, while the vertical bars have a spiral shape, adding dynamism and lightness to the entire composition. Decorative floral elements are also placed along the lower part of the grille.

The windowsill is covered with light green tiles, creating a pleasant color accent and emphasizing the overall thoughtfulness of the architectural detail. All elements of the window harmoniously combine, demonstrating the architect's attention to detail and desire to transform a functional element of the building into a work of decorative art.
