#4584. Elegant Art Nouveau Facade with Red Accents

This image showcases a magnificent example of an Art Nouveau building. The facade of this four-story townhouse is primarily constructed of light-colored brick with contrasting red details. The architectural composition is characterized by asymmetry and flowing, fluid lines typical of the Art Nouveau style from the early 20th century.

The facade features a distinctive vertical articulation with an elegant rhythm of arched windows. Particularly notable are three levels of arched openings: the upper floor has a row of four arched windows with red frames, the central floor is adorned with a large semicircular bay window with an elegant metal balcony, and the first floor is crowned by a wide arch with red window frames and decorative railings.

The building's base is made of gray stone with three arched niches housing two commercial spaces with red rolling shutters and a circular entrance door on the right. The facade details are richly decorated with stucco and ornamental consoles. The red metalwork of the windows and balconies creates a striking contrast against the light background of the building, which is a typical feature of Belgian or French Art Nouveau. The building is topped with a red cornice supported by decorative brackets.

The facade displays characteristic Art Nouveau floral ornaments and curved lines in the decorative elements and balcony railings. This house represents an excellent example of early 20th-century urban architecture, where functionality was combined with artistic expressiveness.
