#18813. Modular black facade with protruding glass boxes

Before us stands an impressive example of modern urban architecture with a distinctly modular facade. The building demonstrates a bold design approach: black vertical-ribbed cladding of the main volume contrasts with protruding glass box modules. These volumetric elements, asymmetrically positioned on the facade, create a dynamic composition, as if the boxes have been "pulled out" from the main building.

The building's facade represents a masterful combination of closed and open spaces. The upper levels are designed as six cubic volumes with large windows, providing abundant natural light to the interior spaces. The ground floor, in contrast, is executed in a more open manner with wide storefront windows, creating a sense of transparency and inviting visitors inside.

Particularly noteworthy is the contrast between the dark, textured facade of the main volume and the light interiors visible through the large windows. Such professional facade design not only distinguishes the building in its urban environment but also demonstrates a functional approach where the exterior appearance reflects the internal structure.

For private homeowners, this example can serve as inspiration for using contrasting materials and creating projecting volumes. Even on a smaller scale, one can apply the idea of combining different textures and materials, as well as playing with volumes to create a dynamic exterior. Vertical articulation of the facade and large window openings are techniques that can effectively work in private home construction as well.
