A high-tech house in the photo cannot be confused with any other. A few years ago, such architectural sophistication was the prerogative of Western Europe, now it is gaining popularity in Russia in the CIS countries. A high-tech house is distinguished by architecture, materials used for construction, decoration, window configuration, flat, sometimes glass roof, characteristic colors as well as ultra-modern engineering solutions in the field of power supply, water supply and sewerage.

Architecture

The architectural plan is dominated by regular, simple geometric shapes - cubes, rectangles, trapezoids, parallelepipeds in various options. Protruding elements are found in abundance - roofs, canopies, cornices.

The roofs of houses, as a rule, are shed, having a small slope, or flat. They are characterized by multifunctionality - they are equipped with an open-air mini-gym, or a place for receiving guests and relaxing in the warm season.

Materials used in the construction of a high-tech house

The most in demand in the construction of a house in the style of high-tech gas and foam concrete, as well as reinforced concrete slabs. Brick is used relatively rarely. Sip panels are often used in combination with steel structures when building a house along frame technology.

As partitions are used tempered glass, PVC and polycarbonate. When building high-tech houses, the use of natural materials, such as wood, is minimized.

Exterior finish

When decorating houses in high-tech style, preference is given to materials of artificial origin - plastic panels, glass and metal. The most popular are colored polymer skins, often with mirror properties.

The most expensive finishing option is performed using tinted, matte or clear glass with reinforcement, the option is cheaper with corrugated board.

Often, one building is finished on the outside in 3-4 versions in order to visually highlight a place to relax, to receive guests, and the economic part of the home. A combination is allowed when finishing with stone, wood, plaster, fiber cement panels.

Window

Windows are characterized by a complete absence or a small number of lintels between the sashes. Panoramic options dominate the size of most of the wall, if not the entire wall. In addition to the fact that a high-tech house looks beautiful and spectacular, there is a noticeable saving on lighting.

The glass in these windows is very High Quality- besides the fact that southern regions are supplied with a UV filter, they are necessarily shockproof and often windows are additionally equipped with metal roller shutters.

Most often, single- or multi-chamber double-glazed windows act as glazing, in which air is pumped out between the glasses. Vacuum double-glazed windows provide good thermal insulation.

Communications

The project of a high-tech house provides for an autonomous sewage system, its own well for water, as well as partially or completely autonomous power supply to the house. In addition to a purely functional role, communication elements often also play the role of a kind of home decor.

Electricity sources such as wind turbines and solar panels produce electrical energy using wind and sun - inexhaustible and environmentally friendly natural resources. Electricity is stored in batteries and consumed as needed.

Their disadvantage is relatively low productivity, exactingness to the place of installation and dependence on weather conditions.

Diesel, gasoline and gas generators are also widely used, options for combining windmills are not uncommon, solar panels and power supply from power lines, or from fuel generators - it all depends on economic feasibility.

Autonomous well takes water from underground aquifers lying at least 5-10 meters. The advantage is that it can be drilled directly near the house, and the water supply in the well is much larger than in the well.

In cold climatic zones above the well to maintain a positive temperature is being built pumping station, or a caisson for the pump is dug into the ground.

Autonomous sewerage allows you to dispose of waste products without harm to the environment without connecting to the central sewerage system. It consists of:

• internal networks installed in the house;
• external networks outside the house, through which water enters the treatment plant;
• single or multi-chamber treatment structure;
• filtration field, equipped with a septic tank, providing post-treatment of wastewater.

The autonomous sewage system is chosen in terms of performance depending on the terrain, the level of groundwater, the number of residents and whether they permanently live in the house, whether sewage equipment is used.

For the little one one-story house in high-tech style, you will need one system, and for a luxurious three-story villa in classical style and four bathrooms and toilets - the other.

Color spectrum

At color solution high-tech houses use cold, restrained tones - black, white, blue and gray of various saturation, marble, sand, cold green. Often, colors are used in a monochrome spectrum, or two or three colors with an emphasis on one and contrast.

Design and construction

When creating a house project, it should be taken into account that it will be necessary to carry out a huge number of calculations - for the construction part, for energy consumption, for the water supply of the house and the pool (pools are not uncommon in such houses), for drainage, finishing and many other nuances.

Construction work will also be complex and resource-intensive, it should immediately be noted that such a house is not a cheap pleasure.

The right decision would be to entrust the design and construction of housing of the future to professionals with a good reputation and extensive experience in the relevant field.

Photos of houses in the style of Hi-Tech

34030 1

Most residential buildings, despite striking differences in decoration, have classical architectural forms. Such buildings seem to us the most convenient, attractive and, most importantly, correct. State-of-the-art high-tech projects challenge these conservative conventions and redefine the possibilities of architecture. Unusual proportions, the absence of traditional elements, an abundance of space and light - all this combines an amazing high-tech style.

High-tech houses cannot be confused with any others, they differ so much in appearance. However, they are quite diverse, both in shape and size. It may be completely small houses in the form of a cube or spacious two- and three-story mansions, which are a complex structure of several geometric blocks.

Some houses cannot be described at all, they only need to be seen. The characteristic features of this style also include:

• lack of symmetry;
• widespread use of metal, concrete, plastic and glass;
• lack of decor and small architectural details;
• restrained colors in cold tones.

All buildings are distinguished by a thoughtful design, the main emphasis is on functionality, convenience and practicality. Because of this, the interiors of many houses even seem unnecessarily simple at first glance. At the same time, high-tech dwellings can be called the most economical to operate, which more than compensates high costs for the construction and installation of high-tech communications.

Distinctive features of the Hi-tech project line are flat roof and large glass area

Let's consider each parameter in more detail.

Architectural differences

The architecture of buildings designed in high-tech style has predominantly regular geometric shapes. Rectangular and cubic designs are combined in various variations, depending on the design. Many protruding elements, wide canopies, niches. Roofs, as a rule, are flat or shed with a slight slope, and are also functional: in most cases, the roof is equipped with playground or a corner for relaxation, parties can be held there. There is another option: the roof is partially (or completely) glazed, which saves on lighting and gives the interior an original look.

Construction materials

The most popular materials here are monolithic reinforced concrete slabs, ceramic blocks and foam block, brick is used much less often. Many houses are built using frame technology, and steel structures are filled with glued sip panels. Widely used for partitions strained glass, polycarbonate, plastic. And here natural wood in the construction of high-tech houses is almost never used, except in exceptional cases.

Exterior finish

AT outdoor decoration priority are artificial materials - metal, glass, plastic. The most popular cladding option is composite panels of various colors, including mirror finish. Premium finishes are available in reinforced glass (frosted, clear, tinted) and more budget options provide sheathing with corrugated board. At the same time, in one project, 2-3 types of finishes are used at once in order to visually emphasize the division into front and utility zones, a recreation area, and so on. Also, for combination, finishing from natural stone, wood, porcelain stoneware, fiber cement panels, plaster.

Window

Windows should be large, with minimal or no lintels. Presence welcome panoramic window all over the wall. In premium projects, the façade is fully glazed, which not only gives the building a spectacular look, but also allows maximum use daylight. Increased requirements are put forward for glasses: they must be impact-resistant and reflect ultraviolet, that is, they must have a special coating. Quite often, the windows in such houses are closed with metal roller shutters.

Engineering systems

Most active high tech involved in the arrangement of engineering systems. air heating, solar panels, wind generator and other communications provide high energy efficiency at home and comfortable conditions residence for households. As a rule, the site has its own well, so the water supply system is autonomous and does not depend on external factors. Part of the communications is located in plain sight, including outside the building. At the same time, they have special design and, performing direct functions, at the same time they are a kind of home decor.

Color spectrum

The decoration is dominated by neutral and cold colors: white, black, all shades of gray and blue, cold green tones. The facade can be monochrome, but more often a combination of two or three colors is used, including contrasting ones. Warm woody shades are also sometimes present, but only as an accent, and not as the main background.

High-tech projects require the most complex calculations, so only a specialist should develop them. Construction process is also not simple: for the construction of complex and heavy structures, it is necessary special equipment and relevant work experience. All this at times increases the cost of construction, and therefore such a dwelling is by no means a cheap pleasure. At the same time, technologies make it possible to achieve maximum independence in terms of energy, that is, a house in in full provides residents with heat and electricity. In the process of operation for several years, the money spent is fully paid off.

Stylistic directions

Like any other style, hi-tech has several directions. And although they are based on the same high technologies, they are expressed in architectural terms in completely different ways.

This direction has common features with the style of "loft", but is more technological in execution. Main attributes: abundance of metal and glass elements on the background concrete walls, steel lintels, pipelines, as in industrial facilities. The main part of the communications is carried out on the facade of the building. Finishing is carried out exclusively from artificial materials, color palette limited to a few cold shades.

The most popular destination. The houses are distinguished by their unusual appearance and non-standard proportions. The simplest buildings are cube-shaped, but most structures are complex structures of multi-level modules in the form geometric shapes. For decoration, the most modern materials are used, important role allocated to exterior lighting of the facade. Communications are hidden inside the building, the outer walls are smooth and plain.

Bionic high-tech

The main emphasis is on harmonious combination the latest technologies with natural materials. Architectural lines imitate natural forms, so there is no strict geometry and complex structures. Such houses fit perfectly into the surrounding landscape, and when developing projects, the priority is the environmental safety of materials and the structure as a whole. For this reason, only renewable energy sources are used. The color scheme includes mostly light warm shades. This direction in our country is still little in demand, but in the West such houses are not uncommon.

High-tech facade decoration

Building a high-tech house with your own hands is difficult, but stylizing it as high-tech is already finished building quite capable of anyone. And even if the roof is not flat, but gable, it is not so difficult to give the structure an original and ultra-modern look, the main thing is to choose the right materials. There are a lot of options here, but one of the most successful is the combination of composite panels with plastered walls.

To make the facade look more spectacular, you can take different panels - light and dark, or with a mirror and matte surface. First you need to draw a sketch of the house and mark on it different color each type of finish: the front area can be distinguished with light cladding, the living area with dark cladding, everything else can be plastered. The sketch will help determine the optimal location of the skin and the dimensions of each section.

Advice. For ease of installation and saving materials, choose under the cladding flat areas walls without openings, niches and ledges, then you do not have to cut and fit panels. It is better to leave corners and curved surfaces under plaster, because it is much easier to apply the mortar than to mount a frame with sheathing.

Next, you need to mark the boundaries of these sections on the wall and carefully take measurements in order to calculate right amount material. Of course, the area for each type of finish should be calculated separately. Be sure to purchase the number of panels with a small margin, since additional material may be required during installation.

Surface preparation

Despite the fact that cladding and plastering are performed differently, the requirements for the quality of the base remain the same - strength, reliability, and the absence of defects. First of all, gutters, platbands, cornices, lanterns and everything else that interferes with work are removed from the facade. Then they take a steel brush and process the walls over the entire area, cleaning off the dirt, old paint, crumbling plaster. For greater efficiency, you can use a grinder with a brush attachment.

The next stage is the sealing of cracks, through holes and deep recesses. For this use cement-sand mixture(in the ratio 1:3). Slots are pre-embroidered, all recesses are cleaned of dust. The solution is applied with a trowel, tightly hammered into the holes, the surface is leveled.

After the repair mortar has dried, the base is primed.

Plastering

"Wet" processes should be performed first, as the solution may splatter during application and stain other surfaces. Plastering can be done directly on the base or on the insulation, if there is a need for thermal insulation of the house. Consider an example with insulation.

The solution can be made ordinary cement-sand, but it is better to buy a factory plaster mixture with hydrophobic additives. Such plaster is not prone to shrinkage and lays better on the base, the main thing is to observe the proportions when mixing. Additionally, you will need:

• foam sheets;
• glue for polystyrene foam;
• spatula or trowel;
• level;
• reinforcing mesh for plaster;
• polyurethane trowel;
• plinth plank.

Step 1. The boundaries of the facing sections are marked on the wall and the vertical is determined using a plumb line. Then, according to the level, the lower border of the finish is marked, which must be strictly horizontal.

Step 2 Holes are drilled along the bottom markings in the wall for fasteners in increments of 20-30 cm, dowels are inserted, baited plinth and apply a level. If the bar is located exactly horizontally, you can fix it with self-tapping screws.

Step 3 Glue is diluted in water, mixed with a mixer until smooth and left for 5 minutes to mature the solution. Mixing again, apply the composition with a trowel on the first sheet of insulation. The solution is applied in a wide strip along the perimeter of the sheet, and then in separate strokes in the middle.

Step 4 The lower edge of the insulation is placed on the plinth, leveled vertically and pressed tightly against the wall. The next sheet is attached close to the first, the excess solution is carefully removed, and so on until the end of the row. The second row is glued in the same way, but with the seams offset by half the width of the sheet. Each row is level controlled to avoid vertical deviation.

Step 5 After completing the installation of the insulation, give the solution a good grip, and perform additional fixation with dowels. To do this, holes are drilled in each sheet in the corners and in the center, going deep into the thickness of the wall by at least 50 mm and dowels are driven in.

Step 6 The surface of the insulation is primed before plastering. The primer must be used with quartz filler to ensure high adhesion of materials.

Step 7 Cooking plaster mortar in the proportions specified by the manufacturer. Next, they collect the solution on a spatula and apply it to the wall with uniform movements. A mesh is applied on top, leveled and gently smoothed with a spatula from the center to the edges, gradually deepening it into the thickness of the solution. In adjacent areas, the mesh overlaps by about 10 cm.

Step 8 After the plaster has dried, the surface is rubbed with a plastic float with an emery cloth. The grout is performed in a circular motion, pressing the grater firmly against the base. After completion of the work, be sure to sweep away the dust with a brush.

Step 9 The wall is again treated with soil, and after drying, they proceed to final leveling. This time, the solution is applied very thinly - about 2-3 mm thick, and carefully rubbed with a spatula over the base. Try not to leave streaks from the tool, streaks and scratches, the plaster layer should be as smooth and even as possible.

The final step is grouting with a polyurethane or metal float. Before grouting, make sure that there are no mortar residues or adhering grains of sand on the tool, otherwise scratches will definitely remain on the plaster. Finished plaster it remains only to paint, but it is better to do this after the installation of the cladding.

Sheathing with composite panels

Composite panels are attached to the crate, so they start with marking and installing guides. For the device of the crate, it is better to use galvanized U-shaped profiles.

Step 1. Perform markup. 5 cm recede from the edge of the plaster, determine the vertical and mark points on this line every 40-50 cm. Step aside another half a meter and repeat the steps, and so on to the edge of the intended area.

Step 2 A hole is drilled at each point, dust is blown out, and a dowel is inserted. Next, a bracket is applied, a gasket (made of paronite or plastic) is inserted between the bracket and the wall, and the fasteners are fixed with a bolt. All other brackets are fixed in the same way.

Step 3 Now you need to fix the insulation. in slabs sharp knife make neat cuts and string the material onto the brackets, threading the ears into the holes made. The slabs must fit tightly to each other and to the base, forming a continuous coating without gaps. Wind is fixed on top of the thermal insulation protective film, laying adjacent strips overlapping by 10 cm.

Step 4 Guides are mounted on the brackets, controlling the vertical level. Profiles are fixed with rivets - 2 for each bracket. Spacer plates (sled) are inserted into the cavity of the guide profiles, with the help of which the panels are fixed.

Step 5 The first panel is attached to the bottom of the frame, leveled, both upper corners are baited with screws to the profiles. Expose the spacer slide at the side brackets of the plates and fix them to the guides with self-tapping screws or rivets.

Step 6 The second panel is hooked to the sled with brackets, the seam is leveled under the ruler so that its width does not exceed 12 mm, and the corners are fixed with rivets. All other panels are fixed in the same way, all the time controlling the width of the vertical and horizontal seams of the cladding.

The installation of the second and subsequent rows is carried out without displacement of the seams, that is, each panel in the vertical row is located strictly above the previous one. After completing the lining, do not rush to remove the protective film from the panels, as the plastered areas still have to be painted.

Finishing work on the facade

So, the facade has already noticeably changed, it remains to finish quite a bit. First of all, you need to choose the paint for the plastered areas. You can, of course, use decorative plaster, but the embossed texture is not suitable for high-tech style, the surface should be perfectly smooth and uniform. The best option– water-soluble acrylic or silicone based paints. They are the most durable, resistant to abrasion and adverse conditions, have excellent hiding power.

As for the color: white, light gray, gray-blue are best suited. Here it is necessary to take into account the color of the cladding, for example, if the panels are pearl gray, then it is better to paint the plaster white for contrast. Perfectly harmonizes with black or bright blue panels gray plaster the color of concrete.

Before painting, the wall must be cleaned of dust and primed. It is most convenient to paint with a roller or spray gun, especially if the finishing area is large. As a rule, the paint is applied in 2 layers to get an even deep color. Work should be started only after the plaster has completely dried, and always in warm, dry and calm weather.

After painting the wall, the protective film can be removed from the panels. Now the facade has a completely different look: the house seems more spectacular and modern. You can add some touches, for example, hang metal roller shutters on the windows.

Video - High-tech house projects

The rapid development of modern construction and finishing technologies is embodied in the high-tech architectural style (to find fault with the flow), which actually means “high technology”. Houses made in this style cannot be confused with others, they look so original. Unusual forms of buildings are, first of all, the fruit of the creative thought of architects, technically supported by the calculations of the designers. High-tech cottage projects and their practical implementation are in high demand among young, active, as well as creative people. What is typical for houses built in this modern style find out by reading the article.

The main features inherent in high-tech cottages

Most of the buildings in this style are implemented in a one-story version, although there are projects of high-tech houses, although much less often, in 2-3 floors. What is inherent in this architectural style and distinguishes it from other buildings? High-tech cottages are characterized by the following features:

• the exterior of the buildings does not contain eye-catching architectural elements, everything is simple and concise;
• external and internal forms contain a minimum of roundness, they are predominantly rectangular, triangular;
• the roof of houses contains a minimum of kinks, often flat or gable with a slight angle of inclination;
• if columns are provided in the plan of the house, they also have the correct geometry and do not visually stand out against the general background;
• a characteristic element of the style are large stained-glass windows, which can occupy one of the walls completely or most of it;
• a frequent element of the exterior is the asymmetry of walls and architectural elements;
• colors are an important feature of style (basic - gray, white, black, steel, beige; brown, red, yellow, orange inserts);
• in the decoration of the facade and interior, modern artificial materials, wood or natural stone should be kept to a minimum here.

High-tech houses are as functional as possible, there is nothing superfluous in them, and this applies to both architecture and interior layout. The interior is strictly zoned, characterized by clear geometric shapes and lines without smooth transitions and small elements. Plastic, glass, mirrors predominate among finishing materials. Inside the spacious rooms there are many different lamps, not only on the ceiling, but also in the most unexpected places. The abundance of diffused light is an integral feature of the interior of high-tech cottages, which is taken into account when designing them.

Materials for the implementation of high-tech house projects

Despite the unusual external forms, Construction Materials for the construction of buildings in an ultra-modern style, the most common are used. What building materials are used in the designs of houses of this architectural style for building walls? Preference is given to such building materials:

• aerated concrete blocks;
• ceramic blocks;
• foam concrete;
• brick;
• materials for frame construction.

Aerated concrete and ceramic blocks are great for high-tech house projects for several reasons. The first one is convenience and high speed masonry of these building materials. The second is the absence of small elements in the projects of houses of this architectural style, which means that large blocks with their minimum fit are the best fit. Also important is the weight of the porous material and its low thermal conductivity, which makes it possible to save on thermal insulation materials and construction of a massive foundation high strength. In addition, the cost of blocks and the prices for their laying are lower when compared, for example, with bricks.

Brick is also sometimes used for construction. This building material is a priority in the construction of overall buildings, when the strength of the building comes to the fore. Small one-story houses can, at the request of the developer, be built using a frame-panel method, which is more economical and much faster. After application finishing materials corresponding to the architectural style, it is impossible to determine the frame nature of the building.

High-tech houses are different unusual shape roofs. It has a slight slope, or is completely flat. This feature requires an extraordinary approach to the choice roofing materials. In the project of a one-story house with a flat roof, it is usually assumed that special polyvinyl chloride membranes are used for this purpose. For pitched roofs use durable metal or profiled sheets.

One of the features of most high-tech buildings is the low total weight of buildings (windows instead of walls, non-massive roofs, minimal furniture). In addition, basement floors are extremely rarely designed and implemented in such houses. These factors influence the choice of foundation structures, which is laid down in the projects of houses. As a rule, for the strength and stability of ultra-modern buildings, it is sufficient to construct an unburied reinforced base, which can be reinforced with piles in the presence of unstable soils in the building site. For small one-story cottages, especially those built in a frame way, a columnar foundation is enough.

Interior layout of high-tech cottages

Despite the ultra-modern exterior and interior, which imitates a dwelling from the future or even space, you will have to live in such houses. ordinary people to whom nothing human is alien. This is taken into account when designing the layout, so cottages made in this architectural style do not differ much from other residential buildings. Although the premises are made in accordance with the style requirements, no one canceled their functional purpose.

In a small-sized one-story cottage, when designing, the following are laid down:

• small vestibule;
• hallway;
• kitchen;
• boiler room (if permanent residence is provided);
• spacious living room;
• 1-2 bedrooms;
• shower room (bathroom) plus a bathroom.

In some projects, a place is cut out for a small dressing room or pantry.

In cottages over 120 m2, which often have a second or attic floor, respectively, the stairs to them, the layout is more rich and functional. Despite the style, the layout is usually classic: on the top floor there are bedrooms, a bathroom, a bathroom, a dressing room, everything else is downstairs. If the area allows (usually over 150 m2), a garage is included in the ground floor plan. Alternatively, it can be attached to the main building in the form of an open canopy or a full-fledged enclosed space.

The high-tech style is sometimes preferred by the owners of large mansions. However, in this case, it is incorrect to talk about the principles of planning, since elite-class housing in most cases is built according to individual projects of houses, where the decisive word in the planning of premises is not with specialists, but with the owner of the mansion.

We live in the modern world and use inventions that were science fiction half a century ago.
The era of technology has changed the way we look at architectural structures and the farther into the future, the more popular spicy rectangular shapes, sparkling chrome and maximally glazed designs.

The history of the style

This architectural style originated in the 70s of the last century in the UK, which is translated from English. Means - high technologies (High Tech). Architectural style HI-TECH - these are incredible geometric shapes, layouts with large quantity space, large areas glazing, as well as new materials where metal, plastic and glass predominate.

A modern home should be environmentally friendly and highly energy efficient. Mankind has not yet been able to fully realize the idea of ​​“ smart home”, but managed to get very close to it.
Famous high-tech buildings

Artistic style HITECH contains distinctive features:

Use of high technologies (computers, sensors, electric motors, cameras)
- room functionality
- The minimum amount of decor
- the use of artificial materials (metal, plastic, concrete, glass)
- application simple forms in exterior and interior design
- metallic bright and silver colors
- decentralized lighting, play of light with straight and cubic surfaces

HI-TECH from the word high-tech and therefore a house built in this style must combine the architectural qualities of this style and also have the functions of a “smart home”:

Heating including underfloor heating (installed in the floors water heating or electric)
- ventilation and air conditioning controlled by a computer (in fact, this is climate control)
- security and fire system connected to the Internet (informs the owner about the state of the house up to the picture from it)
- water and gas leakage sensors, power grid control (everything is connected to a common server with security software)
- video surveillance connected to the Internet (also recorded locally or you can watch your home online)
- distribution of audio and video streams among the premises (multi-room) (distribution of sound in the premises)
- management storm sewer, heated steps, stairs, roofs (sewage control, etc., everything is connected to the server)
- control of energy consumption and control of leaks (analyzes the leakage of current or water by sensors)
- management of backup power sources, diesel generators (backup power in case of main power failure)
- management of automatic watering of the adjacent territory (computer control of watering plants and lawns)
- control of doors, gates, barriers (control and management of all doors and gates)
- control of curtains, blinds, roller shutters (computer control of roller shutters and blinds)
- a central computer connected to the Internet and managing all systems remotely (monitoring the house and managing the owner, as well as the company that serves the house for security)

Interior Design

The idea of ​​high-tech style is the idea of ​​using high technologies. High-tech style is the use of high technologies in furniture, design elements, ceilings, lighting fixtures, embedded technology.

The main principle of the high-tech style interior is practicality for the owners. Combination multifunction devices and practical use of space thanks to transformable furniture. The lighting is mainly LED, a lot of spotlights are installed on the ceiling or on the floor. The decor can be in the form of some kind of art elements: vases, statues or simple geometric objects.

Building materials used in the construction of high-tech houses

Metal, its alloys are widely used in the construction of a house, sometimes a frame bearing in the roof, chrome-plated interior elements. Glass is used in parapets, stained glass windows. Windows are as big as possible. in furniture glass tables and interior doors frosted glass.

In such houses, the main thing is practicality and there are no architectural excesses for the sake of beauty, as, for example, in baroque or gothic, although grandeur is felt like in the empire style thanks to large and regular geometric shapes subordinate to the author’s global plan. Every detail of a HI-TECH house project will carry practicality first of all. This type of projects and houses is suitable for those who care not about excesses in luxury, but about simplicity, functionality and practicality.

High-tech houses can be built from classic materials, but the main thing in such a house is its content and high technology. The HITECH architectural style is used in the construction of modern office buildings and shopping and entertainment centers.

Projects of high-tech houses are high-tech. Actually, hi-tech is high technology, that is, in Russian “high technology”. At the same time, the appearance of the building can be quite strange, but even its most extravagant features are subject to the author's intention and have a certain functional meaning. This style does not accept art for art's sake. Most simple elements interior or exterior can look quite unusual. But their appearance will never be accidental.

Another one characteristic style - it is aimed at the future and implies saving resources, since in the future many resources may not be enough, for example, water. Therefore, such a cottage can be equipped with its own treatment systems, greenhouses, solar panels. At the same time, high-tech house projects can include the construction of both modern materials, and in classical ones, since the main attention of designers is directed precisely to the content, and not to the form.

Pros of using Hi-Tech style

A high-tech style home will never get bored, because every day you will be surrounded by unusual laconic forms, contrasting colors and ordered uniqueness of chaos. The building may have several floors, an attic or an extension, ground floor with swimming pool. Asymmetrical walls and pentagonal rooms are not uncommon in such a building. Actually, high-tech projects practically do not limit the customer in choosing a layout.

If you are a supporter non-standard solutions, such a house is for you. For all its extravagance, the home will never look tasteless and clumsy, as it excludes the use of unnecessary details. Projects of houses and cottages in high-tech style are simple and proportionate. The lighting of the building is especially carefully thought out, as a rule, its decentralization is used. This technique allows not only to give the room unusual view, but also visually expand its boundaries. Choosing project documentation or designing a house custom order, it is important to remember that the structure must be adapted to the conditions of a particular site, namely the characteristics of its soil and topography.
