The image showcases a characteristic example of urban development in European style, where the central element is a three-story townhouse with a renovated facade. The central building stands out among neighboring houses with its light gray brick facade, painted in a subdued neutral shade, creating a contrast with the traditional yellow-brown brickwork of adjacent structures.
The facade demonstrates an interesting combination of modern and traditional architectural elements. The ground floor is designed in a minimalist style with two large doors on the left (possibly garage doors) and an entrance door on the right, all executed in the same light gray color. A wide window-display adds modernity to the lower level. The second floor features two French balconies with wrought iron railings and hanging plants, which add liveliness and elegance to the facade.
The mansard roof with gray shingles and two symmetrically placed dormer windows complete the composition, adding verticality and traditional character to the building. Particularly noteworthy is how the reconstruction has preserved the proportions and scale of the building, harmoniously integrating it into the existing architectural ensemble of the street.
For your own facade design, several techniques can be noted: using a monochromatic color scheme to create a modern look that contrasts with the surroundings; adding greenery to balconies to soften the strict lines of the facade; preserving or recreating traditional architectural elements (such as mansard windows) when modernizing a building; using quality materials with clear texture to create a cohesive image.
