#2003. Harmonious Blend of Interior and Exterior: Covered Terrace with Pool as an Extension of the Kitchen

The image showcases an exemplary integration of indoor and outdoor living space in a contemporary country house. The architectural solution is built on the principle of continuity, where the kitchen smoothly transitions into a covered open terrace, which in turn offers a view of the swimming pool and landscaped garden area.

The kitchen is executed in a classic style with white cabinet facades featuring panel inserts and modern built-in appliances. Notable is the play of contrasts between the light upper cabinets and the darker lower part of the kitchen set, which adds depth to the interior. The kitchen space is finished with natural materials – wood and stone, creating a sense of warmth and comfort.

The terrace represents a well-thought-out space for relaxation and outdoor dining. The ceiling is finished with wooden panels, and two ceiling fans not only provide comfortable air circulation but also become a stylistic accent. The dining area with a wooden table and chairs naturally fits into the overall concept of the space. Special attention should be paid to the outdoor kitchen with a grill, which makes this area functional for cooking in the fresh air.

The flooring of the terrace is made of tiles imitating wood, which is a practical solution for outdoor spaces exposed to moisture. The stone wall finish near the pool resonates with the design of the country house facade, creating a unified architectural ensemble. The swimming pool and greenery in the background complement the composition, bringing an element of nature into the architectural space.

When designing a similar space in your own home, it's worth paying attention to the use of large sliding doors to ensure unobstructed transition between spaces, choosing weather-resistant materials for outdoor areas, and creating functional zones for various activities. It's also important to consider a lighting system that will be effective both during the day and in the evening.
