House XP: A patio that brings the family yogether and protects from the heat

This architectural project is a rehabilitation and expansion of an existing building, reimagined to seamlessly blend contemporary design with traditional spatial concepts. The core of the project revolves around a newly created central courtyard, a key feature designed to enhance thermal comfort in the hot regional climate. This outdoor space acts as a natural cooling element during the summer, ensuring a pleasant, shaded retreat for the residents.

The extension was designed to integrate clean, geometric volumes with a carefully selected material palette that enhances natural light diffusion and indoor-outdoor continuity. Expansive glass openings and strategic positioning of living spaces foster a strong connection with nature, while maintaining privacy and protection from excessive heat.

The courtyard becomes the heart of family life, a space where leisure and social interaction thrive—whether playing cards in the fresh air or enjoying the serene ambiance of this harmoniously integrated home.

This project reflects a fusion of heritage and innovation, proving that architecture can both respect the past and redefine the future.
