#7359. Polychromatic Art Nouveau Villa Facade with Distinctive Metalwork Details

This image showcases a striking example of Art Nouveau architecture with regional influences. The photograph captures a fragment of a villa facade, likely built in the early 20th century. Particularly noteworthy is the decorative treatment of surfaces using contrasting materials and ornaments.

The building's facade features a carefully designed artistic composition. The lower section is constructed with polychromatic brickwork, creating a rhythmic pattern of red and light-colored bricks. Decorative panels with diamond-shaped ornaments in warm red and beige tones adorn the upper part of the base, adding a geometric accent.

The metalwork elements deserve special attention, executed in the characteristic Art Nouveau plasticity. The curved lines of the metal canopy and balcony railings with their flowing, fluid forms create an organic contrast to the geometric rigor of the brickwork. The wrought iron fence along the building's perimeter complements the overall composition, unifying various elements of the facade.

The architectural solution for the roof with projecting cornices and wooden elements maintains the stylistic unity of the structure. Overall, the facade represents a finely balanced composition of different materials and textures, where each element emphasizes the individual character of the building.
