What we see is a striking example of a modern interpretation of an Alpine chalet, harmoniously integrated into the mountainous landscape. The facade demonstrates a masterful combination of traditional wooden architecture with contemporary elements. The main volume presents a classic gabled form, characteristic of mountain architecture, but executed in a modern manner.
The facade is completely clad with vertical wooden planks, creating a rhythmic pattern and emphasizing the natural character of the building. The treatment of the gable end is particularly interesting - the use of vertical wooden slats of varying heights forms a permeable structure that simultaneously serves as a decorative element and allows partial light penetration.
Special attention should be paid to the attached semi-circular terrace with its canopy, which contrasts with the main geometric volume of the house. Its smooth form and continued use of wood in the finishing create an organic transition between the house and the surrounding landscape. The large panoramic windows on the lower level provide a visual connection between the interior and nature, blurring the boundary between internal and external space.
In the facade design, several techniques can be noted that might be used in private house construction: combining different wood textures to create visual interest; using contrasting forms (rectilinear and curvilinear elements); playing with light through partially permeable structures; integrating functional recreation areas (the firepit in the yard) into the overall composition of the plot. Particularly successful in this project is the lighting implementation, which highlights the texture of the wood and creates a cozy atmosphere in the evening hours.
