This terrace was transformed into a comfortable and versatile outdoor retreat through the addition of a custom-designed deck and structural covering that provides generous shade throughout the day. The new overhead structure softens direct sunlight without compromising the openness of the space, allowing the terrace to be enjoyed in comfort while maintaining uninterrupted views of the surrounding mountains.
The warm tones of the ceiling panels add texture and visual continuity, complementing the existing materials and grounding the design in a cohesive, contemporary aesthetic. Carefully integrated lighting ensures the space remains functional and inviting into the evening, enhancing the atmosphere without overwhelming the natural setting.
The selection of greenery introduces a refreshing natural element, creating a subtle sense of enclosure while preserving the airy feel of the terrace. The round dining table and woven chairs establish a welcoming area for gathering, offering ample seating for meals, conversation, or relaxation.
The intervention elevates the terrace into a shaded, protected, and thoughtfully styled outdoor environment. By balancing comfort, functionality, and visual appeal, the design enhances the daily usability of the space while celebrating the stunning landscape that surrounds it.
