For a solution, we proposed self-contain removable planters inside the fixed-in-place decorative planters. Also, we suggested elevated seating, allowing the rain run-off towards the existing trenches. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e83ba977165cd6c2c797650/1585890896243-K0A3K55ZNB749TZZGQ5S/iso-veggie.jpg Projects - senior center - patios Near the kitchen, we proposed a vegetable garden, where a canvas screen creates a comfortable area for sitting or gardening. The planters are on three different styles to accommodate the patients' needs, standing, seating, or wheelchair. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e83ba977165cd6c2c797650/1585890147796-MHY59OSAF662GC8WCOI1/veggie+garden.jpg Projects - senior center - patios This image is the view from the inside of the building through the storefront door.

Unfortunately they are facing south and the sun can be an inconvenience. we suggested a pergola covering the main entrance and fallowing the roof structure. We also suggested operable awnings where they can also function as a privacy screen. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e83ba977165cd6c2c797650/1586267487643-8FAAHCJFUPBVNHOK2FY5/488_kinswood%281color%29.jpg Projects - Pergolas and Landscape In the patio we proposed eating area close to the kitchen with a pergola for sun protection; a grilling area with the possibility of future outdoor kitchen near the drive way. An other area is the master bedroom patio access, where we suggested planters defining the access, furnished with a daybed for patio relaxing and provide some privacy. https://www.ashtim.live/projects/zaragoza monthly 0.5 2020-04-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e83ba977165cd6c2c797650/1585770003448-AGTE5MWWXQWZ9QA6WQV1/20160114_145056.jpg Projects - Zaragoza Shell Bldg The construction of a multi-tenant commercial shell building, as a owner adviser. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e83ba977165cd6c2c797650/1585771685328-OAD7KK18ZKEI8ZQGYBOX/20160314_133356.jpg Projects - Zaragoza Shell Bldg The construction process from the client point of view was a different experience for me.
