Coastal Minimalism: Light Facade on Stilts with Metal Roofing

#7608. Coastal Minimalism: Light Facade on Stilts with Metal Roofing

The photograph showcases a modern two-story house demonstrating a minimalist approach to coastal architecture. The structure features a functional pile construction, typical for homes in coastal areas prone to flooding or storm surges.

The building's facade is executed in light tones with smooth stucco, creating a clean, monolithic appearance. The dark gray metal roofing with its crisp lines contrasts with the white walls, lending the structure a contemporary, industrial character. The asymmetrical volume of the building with its corner windows and projecting elements adds dynamism to the overall composition.

A distinctive feature of the facade is the ribbon glazing on the second floor, which forms a horizontal line that visually expands the space and provides abundant natural light inside. The minimal decorative elements emphasize the purity of the architectural solution, where functionality and simplicity of forms become the main aesthetic principles.

The first floor is partially open and serves as a covered parking area, which is a practical solution for the coastal climate. The surrounding landscape with characteristic coastal vegetation – palm trees and native grasses – organically complements the architectural composition, creating a harmonious blend of modernity and natural context.
