#19755. Modern forest house with vertical wooden facade and mono-pitched roof

This modern country house is a magnificent example of harmonious integration of contemporary architecture with the natural landscape. The facade is crafted from vertically oriented gray timber, creating an expressive texture that naturally incorporates the structure into the surrounding forest.

The asymmetrical mono-pitched roof adds dynamism to the building's silhouette, and its inclination is not only visually interesting but also functional—effectively channeling precipitation away. The minimalist facade design is complemented by large glazed surfaces that provide abundant natural light to the interior spaces and visually connect the interior with the exterior.

Particularly noteworthy is the open terrace with an external fireplace made of light concrete, which becomes an expressive accent against the dark gray facade. The contrast of materials and textures—smooth concrete and textured wood—creates an interesting visual interplay. The warm interior lighting, visible through the panoramic windows, adds coziness and emphasizes the welcoming nature of the building.

When designing the facade of your own home, you can adopt several techniques used here: vertical board orientation to visually increase height, combining different materials to create accents, using large windows for better insolation, and incorporating open spaces (terraces) for a smooth transition between house and garden.
