Jovanovića Kuća from southwest
Pirot, Serbia
The Jovanović house (also known as the Hristić house or Jovan Risto house) is framed in timber, the ground floor infilled with brick and the upper with catma (wattle and daub). Horizontal and vertical edges and eave lines are emphasized with carved wooden trim. Some sources ascribe the high-quality carvings in this house to the famous "Debar school" of itinerant woodcarvers from Macedonia. The glazed central bay projects outward, providing cover for the garden entrance.
