We present an interesting example of facade design using wood and stone in Poland. The modern house was designed by the architectural firm 81.WAW.PL. The design is simple but very effective: thanks to natural materials, the house fits beautifully into the landscape. Its minimalist concept and clean lines would also work well in a more densely populated neighborhood.
Wood and stone facade design – opposites attract
Wood and stone are very different materials, but the combination works beautifully here. The facade is clad in stone, creating a visual connection with the surrounding rock garden. Generous wood elements soften the stone and protect the homeowners from prying eyes. While wooden shutters close the house off from the street, broad glass facades open it toward the wooded landscape. Sliding glass doors blur the boundary between inside and outside. This modern architecture by 81.WAW.PL is a strong example of thoughtful design with wooden facades.
Facade design in wood and stone – a few tips
If this excellent wood and stone facade design inspires you and you want to update your own exterior, here are a few useful tips:
– Douglas fir and larch are ideal for modern exterior design because they are weather-resistant and have a sufficiently long life span of about 10 to 15 years.
– In general, you can choose between horizontal cladding, vertical cladding, and wood paneling. Both directions can look good visually, but proper rear ventilation must always be ensured during installation.
