Before us is a magnificent example of eclectic architecture with elements of Neo-Renaissance and Baroque. The building's facade demonstrates exquisite stonework, where the contrast between the light plaster of the main wall field and the dark gray stone elements creates an expressive architectural composition.
The arched windows of the upper tier deserve special attention, with their characteristic framing of rusticated stone, giving the facade rhythm and expressiveness. The central part of the building is accentuated by luxurious balconies with balustrades and richly decorated consoles. These decorative elements are executed with incredible detail, including carved mascarons and ornamental motifs.
The windows of the lower floors are framed with massive stone casings with rustic finishing, visually strengthening the building's foundation. In the center of the composition is an elegant arch, serving either as an entrance group or a loggia opening, which adds depth and a play of light and shadow to the facade.
When designing the facade of a modern house, several techniques can be borrowed: contrasting combination of materials, rhythmic arrangement of window openings, and the use of decorative elements (albeit in a more restrained form) to give individuality to the building. It's also worth paying attention to proportionality and symmetry, which gives the structure classical harmony.
