The Serbian architectural studio EXE Studio has completed work on a residential building located in the Divčibare resort on the slope of Maljen Mountain. In their work, designers do not like simple solutions; there is always room for creativity in their ideas. This time they decided to play on contrast and made the facade from two dissimilar materials.

Such a play on contrasts was able, however, to organically combine tradition and modernity..
