This modern residence demonstrates a masterful combination of brutal concrete aesthetics with the warmth of Corten steel. The building's facade presents a bold geometric composition of rectangular volumes, where an expressive horizontal element made of perforated Corten steel creates a dynamic contrast with the massive concrete planes. The perforation in the steel panels is not only a decorative element but also a functional solution that allows for the regulation of natural lighting and ventilation of the interior spaces.
The architectural solution fits perfectly into the surrounding landscape, with a panoramic view of the wooded hills. The concrete surfaces with clear formwork texture demonstrate the honesty of the material and a minimalist approach to facade design. Particularly impressive is the contrasting combination of cold gray concrete with the warm rusty terracotta shade of Corten steel, which over time acquires an even deeper patinated appearance.
The landscaping around the building is carefully thought out: low-growing plants and ornamental grasses soften the rigid lines of the architecture, creating an organic transition to the natural surroundings. This technique can be noted by private homeowners — contrasting materials, complemented by properly selected landscaping, can transform even a simple facade into an expressive architectural statement.
