As a novelty in the design of this terrace is the inclusion of a jacuzzi, which together with the hammock will become the ideal area to relax located on the side of the house.

9.Use of pergolas and other structural elements outdoors

Play with several elements for your terrace, the use of pergolas is another important design resource. If you have a passage or tour outside the house you can take the option of roofing it virtually (for example with wooden bars) and then cover it with climbing plants. Let’s see an exterior model of a rustic house.

It is a winding route and the center would be located the main terrace with a stone fire. At the end of the route is a smaller and intimate terrace; Two types of wood colors have been combined in the floors and the way they are placed, the rails are made of wood with iron.
