Modern Elegance in Historical Framework: Double-Height Space with Stone Arches and Glass Bridge

#9169. Modern Elegance in Historical Framework: Double-Height Space with Stone Arches and Glass Bridge

This interior is a magnificent example of harmonious fusion between historical architecture and modern design. The ancient stone arched elements create a powerful architectural framework that contrasts with minimalist contemporary details. Particularly impressive is the double-height living space, where the original stone masonry of the walls emphasizes the authenticity and historical value of the building.

The central element of the interior is a built-in fireplace with a modern rectangular firebox, framed by a simple light-colored structure. This is a classic example of how modern functional elements can be integrated into historical interiors without compromising their integrity. Similar techniques can be used when designing the facade of a country house, where maintaining the balance between tradition and modernity is crucial.

The upper floor is connected to the lower one by a glass bridge with metal supports and minimalist railings, creating a sense of lightness and spatial continuity. The glass floor allows light to penetrate through all levels of the house. A staircase with transparent steps complements the overall concept of airiness and openness of the space.

Soft furniture with patterned upholstery adds coziness and warmth to the interior, softening the austerity of stone and metal. A low coffee table with a minimalist design emphasizes the modern character of the setting. The wooden floor in a warm shade unifies the entire space and creates a comfortable atmosphere, despite the monumentality of the architectural elements.

The open floor plan allows views into other functional areas of the house, creating a sense of cohesiveness in the interior. Natural light penetrating through large window openings highlights the texture of the stone masonry and creates an interplay of light and shadow.
