#2021. Eclectic window facade with brick framing and decorative headpiece

The photograph captures a remarkable architectural solution for a window opening, designed in an eclectic style with elements of Mexican or Spanish colonial tradition. The window is framed by expressive brickwork in a warm red-terracotta shade, creating a volumetric portal against the smooth yellow wall of the building.

The architectural composition of the window demonstrates a thoughtful design: the upper part is adorned with a decorative element in the form of a colored panel with geometric ornamentation — a rectangular insert with blue edging and a central terracotta diamond-shaped element. The window frame itself is executed in a dark blue color, which harmoniously combines with the decorative panel above it. The window is protected by a metal grate with a simple rectangular pattern.

Of particular note is the brickwork around the window, featuring protruding elements and a stepped structure that gives the facade additional texture and volume. The finishing accent is a small decorative element at the top of the brick framing, completing the composition and adding a sense of completeness to the entire ensemble. The contrast between the brick framing and the smooth painted wall emphasizes the architectural features of this facade element.
