PATIO: A HIDDEN DESIGN WITHIN YOUR HOME

A patio (Spanish: 'patio') is a garden located in the middle or inside a house. The concept of a patio was first introduced in countries with climates heavily influenced by vast deserts, such as those in the Middle East, North Africa, Spain, and Portugal. The only way to have a garden in such regions was to create it within the confines of the house. In this location, the garden is shielded from the arid desert climate. Conversely, the garden then brings a sense of freshness into the home. For city dwellers in densely populated areas, a patio resembles an oasis amid the hustle and bustle of a big city.

Efficiency is key. Design your patio in such a way that it can be enjoyed from all four sides of various adjacent rooms. This greatly contributes to creating a fresh, new atmosphere within your home.

The size of the patio should be proportional to the land of the house. Patios are particularly suitable for homes with small land sizes.

For small patios (3x4 square meters), it is best to provide full paving. Plants are placed in pots for easier arrangement and growth. Typically, small patios also incorporate water features, small ponds, and climbing plants.
