La Maison Francaise

Nomination
Best Project of Private Residence

About the project
The project of the private residence was developed in accordance with the customer’s and the architect’s tastes. The Palladian composition was used as a basis, although featuring great impact of the French Classicism, including works of Ange-Jacques Gabriel in Paris and Versailles.

Elements of the order composition were specially designed for this house. The leitmotif of all the four facades are four-column porticos, two of them with front stairs. The order composition was based on the Ionic orb with capitals referring to the Tower of the Winds in Athens.

The architrave isn’t divided into fascias for better integration of the rustic walls into the entablement.
