01

Patio – the old idea, rethought

Traditional townhouses are organized around the patio: rooms open inward, the courtyard brings light and air. In summer it cools the house, in winter it gathers warmth. An idea more current today than ever – because it works without air conditioning.

02

What makes a beautiful patio

An old sandstone wall, a lemon tree, a water basin or fountain, a shading vine or bougainvillea – not much more is needed. Orientation matters: a patio with a touch of midday sun and afternoon shade is the most pleasant. We know the tricks of the old master builders.

03

Patio as a link between inside and out

Modern renovations open the patio generously toward the kitchen or living room – with sliding doors, flush thresholds, continuous flooring. The patio becomes the second living room outdoors. On permit questions we look at glass ratios, grandfathered rights, and energy requirements with you.
