Terraced – Porch, Pool, Patio

Front porches have historically been the public link between the neighborhood and the home. Porches are the private/public space for the homeowner, friends, and neighbors. A porch can be used intimately or to vet a visitor. A terrace or patio is more often uncovered and intimates a use more likely reserved for the homeowner and specific guests. A pool is an even more personal space. At this modern home the terrace levels provide some of the distinction as the subsequent levels and the distance from the street help delineate the transition from more public to more personal space. When a homeowner entertains, the spaces become one with each level evoking a certain mood or emotion. These spaces also become an entry into different parts of the home. The integration of these interior and exterior rooms is what makes a small modern home live big.
