#18285. Stepped wooden facade with dynamic bay window composition

This photograph showcases an exquisite example of modern wooden architecture with an expressive rhythmic facade. The building is clad with horizontal wooden slats creating a crisp linear texture across the entire surface. Particularly striking is the cascading composition of projecting facade elements — volumetric bay windows with angular glazing that form a dynamic stepped silhouette against the clear blue sky.

The architect masterfully employs contrast between the light-colored wood of the main facade and darker areas in the window recesses, giving the building visual depth. The geometric projections not only serve as architectural ornamentation but also fulfill a functional role, expanding the interior space and providing panoramic views from the rooms. Each bay window is protected by its own overhang, which is both an aesthetic and practical solution for weather protection.

In this facade design project, natural materials and contemporary architectural form are particularly well combined. This technique of horizontal wooden siding can be successfully applied when finishing private homes, creating a natural and warm appearance while maintaining modern aesthetics. The rhythmic arrangement of wooden slats not only visually elongates the building but also provides an interesting play of light and shadow throughout the day.
