This luxurious modern hillside residence represents an impressive example of minimalist architecture where concrete becomes the main expressive material. The building's facade is distinguished by bold geometry, consisting of two main volumes: a monolithic rectangular block on the left and an extended floating volume on the right with a characteristic cantilevered projection, creating a sense of lightness despite the massiveness of the concrete structures.
The left part of the facade presents a clear geometric volume with thoughtfully designed window openings that introduce rhythm to the composition. The right part demonstrates a more open character with abundant glazing that blurs the boundary between interior and exterior spaces. The striking concrete staircase integrated into the landscape becomes not just a functional element but also an important design feature connecting different levels of the property.
The restrained color palette of the facade, consisting predominantly of shades of gray concrete, successfully contrasts with the lush greenery of the surrounding landscape, while carefully planned landscaping of the slope using succulents and local plants organically integrates the building into the environment. This approach to facade design demonstrates how the skillful use of concrete, playing with volumes and levels can create an architectural object that impresses with its expressiveness while using a minimal set of expressive means.
For your own home, you could adopt techniques such as the contrasting combination of massive and light elements, integration of architecture into the terrain, use of cantilevered projections to create facade dynamics, as well as the combination of closed and glazed surfaces to form diverse lighting scenarios inside the house.
