They all said that if there was a villa with a patio at home, they would have to laugh secretly. As a result, I really bought a set of yards with patios, but I didn't know what to put on, and it was a waste to put it in the empty! Speaking of this, I thought of townhouses in Vietnam and a built house in Japan, basically every household has a patio, used in place, absolutely not empty and wasted, they are all built?
Vietnamese Townhouse patio →
Most villas in Vietnam are tall and narrow townhouses, and almost every household has a patio to improve the lighting and ventilation problems in the interior. The most common is to use the patio, transform it into an indoor garden, and raise flowers and trees to create a landscape. Due to the good lighting of the patio, floor-to-ceiling windows are installed around it, and tables and chairs are placed on the bench by the way, which is usually a good place for leisure.
There are also Vietnamese villas that simply dig a fish pond down on the first floor to raise fish, and lay a lawn around it, which is no different from an indoor leisure courtyard.
Because the location of the patio is the best for lighting, it will also use this place as a restaurant, and even build a staircase in the patio location, and each floor of the villa can enjoy the sunshine of the patio.
For the country, the villa you buy first does not necessarily support you to dig down the fish pond, and self-built houses can also be considered; In addition, fish farming water vapor heavy, usually also need to be often taken care of, out of practicality, but also to improve the fish pond water replacement system, so that the use of patio to create fish ponds, good looking but not practical.
For owners who are too lazy to take care of it, if they want the patio to look good without affecting the lighting, they can use the patio to transform it into a glass garden, which is replaced by decorative flowers and plants, and remember to leave a door for cleaning and maintenance.
Japan One Ceiling →
Japan's atrium patio is similar to a Chinese garden, paved deck, planted with flowers and trees, usually used as a leisure area, although the comfort is also good, but of course not as good as the beauty of the Chinese courtyard bridge flowing water.
The patio space of the small house is a little smaller and can be converted into a tea room for use. However, most of the Japanese patios are unsealed, decked, surrounded by glass sliding doors, and drainage pipes at the top and inside the patio.
Although the domestic patio is not as large as Japan, but the patio can be sealed or not, considering that the outside wind and rain affect the interior, it is still recommended that you seal it, and do not worry about rainy days.
The same patio, I prefer Vietnamese, planting flowers and leisure fish-like rows, more practical than Japanese. However, from the perspective of the needs of the owners, Japan pays attention to leisure and entertainment, and Vietnam pays attention to landscape design, as if no one has lost, what do you think?
