Islamic Courtyards: Semi-Open Loggia Areas

A grape vine pergola in a corner of the courtyard. Wooden beams are supported between walls and columns, covered by vines forming dappled shadows. Below is a low table and a seating platform covered with textiles; the ground has been sprinkled with water, and there is a water jar nearby. Summer days and evenings are spent here.
Avoid: using modern shading structures made of metal and canvas, making the pergola dense and opaque, placing Western-style dining tables and chairs underneath, having the pergola occupy the entire courtyard.

院子一角的葡萄藤棚。木樑架在牆與柱之間,藤蔓覆蓋形成斑駁的陰影,下方是一張矮桌與鋪了織品的坐台;地面灑過水,旁邊有一個水缸。夏天的白天與傍晚都在這裡。避免:使用金屬與帆布的現代遮陽結構、把棚架做成密實不透光、下方擺設西式餐桌椅、讓棚架佔滿整個院子。
