A courtyard is that space making the transition from indoor to outdoor, from inside the home to the garden full of life. It is the place where we can idle in a lounge chair or we can make plans in the family over a cup of tea or coffee. Sometimes this transit space blends with the garden next to it so perfectly that we can\u2019t tell the limits, as we can see in some of the images below, allowing nature to reclaim every available corner of the property. Below are several images showing classic courtyards and gardens which feature this striking elegant air while keeping their prime role of spaces of relaxation.<\/p>\n
The first image shows the courtyard of a Mediterranean style house, with the whole landscape in a perfect chromatic harmony. The image seems to be divided in three layers \u2013 one which is created by the red roof tiles, the second wrapped around the stones in the wall and paving while the third belongs to nature which discretely crawls into the landscape, giving it a touch of vitality.<\/p>\n
