#9468. Modern facade with textural contrast: metal panels and airy curtains under a triangular gable

This modern residential house demonstrates an interesting contrast between the traditional triangular roof form and innovative architectural solutions. The facade features a distinct geometric composition: the lower level is clad with vertical ribbed metal panels in gray, giving it an industrial character, while the upper floor opens up with large panoramic glazing under a triangular gable.

A particularly expressive element of the facade is the upper level with a balcony, where the glass front is complemented by light curtains, creating a sense of airiness and privacy simultaneously. These white translucent drapes add softness and organic quality to the strict geometry of the house. The wooden balcony railing introduces a warm natural accent to the metal finishing.

The entrance area of the first floor is designed minimalistically, with sliding glass doors and a small porch. The laconic design is emphasized by clean lines and the absence of excessive decoration.

When designing your own facade, you can adopt the principle of contrasting textures and materials – combining metal and textiles, playing with transparency and openness of upper levels while maintaining a more closed ground floor. Also interesting is the technique of using a traditional roof shape in a contemporary interpretation, which allows for creating a recognizable yet innovative building appearance.
