This modern two-story house exemplifies a striking blend of textures and materials in residential architecture. The facade features a contrasting combination: the lower level is clad in white brick, creating a light foundation, while the upper floor is finished with dark wooden panels, giving the building visual lightness and contemporary appeal.
The architectural composition of the facade is built on clear horizontal zoning. The minimalist entrance of the ground floor, framed by a red handrail on concrete steps, contrasts with the upper volume that projects forward as a cantilever. Large panoramic windows create a sense of openness and fill the interior with natural light, while in the evening, indoor lighting accentuates the architectural volumes.
The attention to detail is particularly noteworthy: subtle lighting beneath the projecting volume of the second floor, a vertical white front door with an elongated handle, and a horizontal window on the first floor that breaks the monotony of the brickwork. The second-floor balcony with a solid parapet enhances the privacy of the dwelling while maintaining its modern appearance.
The landscape design of the plot emphasizes the minimalist architecture of the house: gravel filling with large boulders, neat greenery, and concrete stepped pathways create a complete composition.
To adapt similar techniques in private construction, one might consider: playing with contrasting materials (brick/wood/plaster), using cantilever projections to create facade dynamics, accent lighting of architectural elements, horizontal division of the facade with different materials to visually expand the building, and minimalist landscape design that supports the overall style.
