Before us stands a modern two-story residence with an expressive contrasting facade that harmoniously combines white plastered surfaces with a vertical insert of dark natural stone. The architecture of the building features clean geometric forms and asymmetrical composition, characteristic of contemporary minimalism.
The facade presents an interesting solution with a single-slope roof creating a dynamic silhouette. The central element is a dark stone insert that visually divides the building into two functional blocks while simultaneously serving as an architectural dominant. Particularly eye-catching are the large panoramic windows with clear horizontal divisions on the left side of the facade, contrasting with the more traditional glazing on the right side.
The architectural image is enhanced by a thoughtful exterior lighting system: wall-mounted fixtures create an effective play of light and shadow on the white and stone surfaces, emphasizing the texture of materials and the three-dimensional structure of the building. The warm interior lighting visible through the large windows adds coziness to the strict geometric forms.
The property boundary is designed in a style consistent with the house architecture — a combination of stone columns with vertical metal elements creates a sense of permeability and lightness without disrupting the visual connection between the building and its environment. Minimalist landscaping harmoniously complements the contemporary appearance of the building.
In designing your own facade, several techniques from this project could be borrowed: using contrasting materials to create an expressive composition; implementing a well-thought-out facade lighting system; playing with the sizes and proportions of window openings; combining different textures (smooth plaster and textured stone); employing asymmetrical composition to create a dynamic appearance.
