Art nouveau building on Blaumana Street in central Riga, Latvia. August 29, 2015
Anno 1908, architect Friedrich Schoeffel. The assymmetrical facade of the tenement house built in rationalist upright Art nouveau forms does not have showy ornamental furnishings, apart from openwork decorative hammered work, which are crowning both pediments. Areas of different texture’s plastering and supplements of colored ceramic tiles are used in decoration of the building. Freely stylized motifs of late Gothic forms can be seen in lines of several isles.
