#2469. Elegant Mediterranean Facade with Neo-Gothic Elements and Wrought Iron Balcony

The image captures a fragment of an elegant building facade executed in a style that combines elements of Art Nouveau and Mediterranean architecture. The compositional center of the frame is a window opening with a characteristic semicircular top, framed by dark brown wooden shutters. Above the window is a decorative element in the form of an openwork stone rosette with a motif of stylized trefoils, which gives the facade sophistication and refers to neo-Gothic motifs.

The upper part of the window opening is crowned with a triangular pediment with smooth lines typical of early 20th century architecture. The building is given special expressiveness by the wrought iron balcony railing with a repeating floral ornament in the form of flower rosettes and spiral curls. A similar ornamental motif can be traced in the openwork parapet on the roof of the building.

The color scheme of the facade is maintained in warm sandy tones, which is characteristic of Mediterranean architecture. Through the partially open window, a houseplant is visible, which creates a sense of inhabited, living space and adds a green accent to the overall composition. The light falling on the facade emphasizes the relief of architectural details and creates a play of shadows, enhancing the expressiveness of the building.
