Before us stands an outstanding example of a Beaux-Arts style mansion, demonstrating the richness of architectural language from the late 19th to early 20th century. The facade is constructed from sandstone or brick in a warm beige-pink shade, giving the structure an exquisite and noble appearance. The mansion is a two-story symmetrical building with a luxurious mansard roof covered with slate tiles.
The central part of the facade is accentuated by an elaborate portal with a semicircular arch, above which is an oval window and a balcony with a balustrade. The symmetry of the composition is emphasized by side risalits with mansard windows, richly decorated with stucco. The facade decoration is crafted with exceptional attention to detail: cartouches, pilasters, cornices, balustrades, and other classical elements characteristic of the Beaux-Arts style.
The window openings have various forms: rectangular on the first and second floors, arched in the central part, and mansard windows at the upper level. Special expressiveness is given to the facade by decorative elements around the windows, creating an effect of depth and plasticity. The composition is crowned by decorative turrets and spires, giving the building's silhouette an upward aspiration.
When designing your own home inspired by this style, attention should be paid to the symmetry of the composition, the use of classical proportions, the richness of decorative elements, and the harmonious combination of materials. Even in a simplified form, individual Beaux-Arts elements – arched windows, balustrades, ornamental inserts – can give a facade a noble and prestigious appearance.
