The presented wooden facade is an excellent example of a modern interpretation of a traditional forest cabin. This compact house demonstrates a harmonious combination of natural materials and functionality. The facade is made of horizontally laid wooden panels in a warm reddish-brown shade, creating a natural integration of the structure into the surrounding forest landscape.
The roof features an original two-level design: the lower part is metal with distinct vertical lines, while the upper part serves as a viewing platform with wooden elements and a flat roof. This solution not only lends architectural dynamism to the building but also creates a functional space for natural lighting through the upper windows.
The entrance area is designed as a small covered porch with wooden railings that smoothly transitions into the main structure. Window openings are few but strategically positioned to provide sufficient natural light to the interior space while maintaining the building's thermal insulation properties.
In designing your own home, you can borrow techniques such as using natural wood for facade cladding, creating protruding roof elements for protection against precipitation, applying contrasting materials (wood and metal) to create visual interest, and integrating a small porch or terrace that serves as a transitional zone between interior and exterior spaces.
