TERRACES & BALCONIES
Terraces and balconies have always been essential architectural features - they are effectively the continuation of a dwelling outdoors. Terraces are mostly related directly to the landscape surrounding a building. They can frame a view - for instance, through canopies or side walls - they can imitate particular landscape elements on their own more human scale, or they can enable the landscape to be perceived and experienced in a different way.
