#8003. Modern two-story house with a contrasting façade of wood, metal, and siding

The photograph showcases a two-story private house with a modern façade design that combines three primary materials: natural wood, metal, and neutral beige siding. A vertical wooden element framed by a black metal structure adds particular expressiveness to the architectural composition by visually unifying both floors and serving as an accent feature.

The façade demonstrates an interesting contrast between warm wooden panels and strict black metal details. The second floor partially extends over the first, creating a small cantilevered projection with panoramic glazing that adds dynamism to the overall composition. Black wooden supports beneath the cantilever serve as both functional and decorative elements.

Special attention should be paid to the thoughtful use of natural wood not only as cladding for the vertical element but also in the design of the window area on the second floor, creating cohesion in the compositional solution. The gabled roof with chimneys harmoniously completes the image of a modern countryside house that integrates organically with the surrounding natural landscape.

This façade solution can be adapted for your own home by combining contrasting materials, creating vertical accent elements, and working with projecting structures. It's important to maintain proportions and limit the palette to 2-3 primary materials to preserve the laconic nature and integrity of the architectural image.
