Classical Georgian Façade: Symmetry and Elegance of a Red Brick Mansion

#2927. Classical Georgian Façade: Symmetry and Elegance of a Red Brick Mansion

The image displays a magnificent Georgian-style mansion built of red brick. The façade demonstrates strict symmetry — a characteristic feature of classical architecture. The central part of the two-story mansion is accentuated by an elegant portico with four white columns supporting the second-floor balcony.

The roof has a traditional hipped form with three symmetrically placed dormer windows framed in white, creating a striking contrast with the dark roof covering. Four massive brick chimneys rise at the corners of the roof, adding a vertical accent to the composition.

The façade features a regular rhythm of window openings with white casings and multi-pane glazing. The second floor is adorned with a white balcony railing that unifies the three central windows. The horizontal articulation of the façade is emphasized by an expressive white cornice separating the first floor from the second.

The side wings of the building maintain the overall symmetry of the composition and complete the architectural ensemble. The area in front of the mansion is designed as a neat parterre with geometrically organized paved walkways and symmetrically planted ornamental shrubs.
