Two-tone facade: contrasting geometry of a modern country house

#7603. Two-tone facade: contrasting geometry of a modern country house

This modern country house features a striking contrast of facade materials. The upper level is clad in dark graphite stone tiles with a pronounced horizontal texture that creates a rhythmic pattern across the entire surface of the second floor. This dark volume effectively "floats" above the snow-white ground floor, thanks to the cantilever technique characteristic of modernist architecture.

The facade composition is built on the interplay of geometric volumes — strict rectangular forms combined with large panoramic windows. Particularly notable are the wooden window frames in a warm brown shade, which create a pleasant contrast with both the dark finish of the upper level and the white walls of the lower floor.

The ground floor features a spacious terrace with a lounge area that organically connects the interior with the well-maintained lawn. Panoramic sliding doors provide abundant natural light and visually blur the boundary between interior and exterior space. The laconic forms and clean lines emphasize the architect's commitment to the principles of contemporary minimalism, while maintaining the comfort and functionality of the living space.
