Thoughts of an architect...
Design of a patio in a prefabricated house or in a compatible house.
How can the space of a patio be practically? What can his image be? Imagine a space at the back of an office that is not a courtyard, but can be turned into a patio. There may be a high wall so that neighbors cannot see the area. This is a picture. And I definitely want you to think about it. Usually, the left and right sides of the yard can be surrounded by buildings. In the cities we live in, there are often houses that are partitioned with the walls of the house and do not allow the sun to enter. For such a patio, the north side is usually the best part of the house. Placing a living room or dining room is a perfect choice. When the sun is in the south the altitude of the sun is at its highest point. The light is diffused during the noon hours, even if the depth of the courtyard-patio is about 3.5 meters. If there is a building on the other side of the yard and it has two floors, it will be difficult to have sunshine during the day in the winter solstice. However, in summer, the altitude of the sun is high, so there is plenty of light. On the south side of the courtyard if there is a two-story building or a tall masonry would be best. If we have a house in the city center, and the space is not large enough, we should build a tall masonry on the south side of the courtyard-patio if there is no high-rise building. At this point the living room is used as a "patio" and allows sunlight to diffuse. When the house is located in the city center and the plot is limited, you can use the upper floor as a living room. Even if there is no sunshine, the light can reach the ground floor, where the space will be bright and there will be escape air. In the case of a two-storey house, or a two-floor house for two families, in this orientation is also a good place to create a patio-yard where you maintain a reasonable distance from the two independent apartments. Our patio or yard can also have a role, to have a usability. Housing with a patio is often recommended in urban areas and suburbs. In rural areas, there is no question why there is plenty of space. If you have enough garden around the house, you do not need to have a yard. Digital telecommunications lead us to solutions that we can design smart homes, where they can be combined with the natural environment of the patio. Services such as controlling the temperature depending on the weather are now possible. In our time where teleworking is valid, we can work from home. So, in this we have to build a beautiful, natural environment for us to perform better. The time we stay at home now is much longer. A place where you can feel and relax in nature, is the patio. When our house is in the center of the city, with the patio-court comes to life when combined with the outdoor garden. After all, humans must be part of nature. It is the place that you can feel the light, the wind and the green. If you have a home and this extension is available, please consider it. Finally, the construction of a patio offers great value to our home.
