Yellow-Brick Industrial Art Nouveau Façade with Arched Windows

#2023. Yellow-Brick Industrial Art Nouveau Façade with Arched Windows

The image shows a remarkable fragment of a building façade executed in a style that combines elements of Art Nouveau and Neoclassicism. The façade features a striking contrast solution: the main surface of the wall is painted in a rich yellow color, which is effectively set off by the red-brown brick masonry.

The compositional center of the fragment is an arched window with an elegant brick framing. The window has a three-part structure, where the central part is wider than the sides, and is protected by a metal grating. Above the window, there is a decorative element with a rounded motif inscribed in a rectangular shape. The arched construction of the brick framing creates a rhythmic transition from the rectangular forms of the façade to rounded lines.

In the lower part of the fragment, another decorative band with an arched brick form is visible, beneath which geometric ornaments in the form of diamonds on yellow panels are arranged. This technique creates an interesting interplay of textures and colors, giving the façade a special expressiveness. Brick inserts and projections form complex wall plastics, creating an interesting play of light and shadow.

Of particular note is the mastery of brickwork, which is used not only as a constructive but also as an expressive decorative element. This façade solution is characteristic of industrial architecture from the late 19th to early 20th century, when functional buildings acquired aesthetically appealing exteriors.
