This is a valid choice because the entire construction appears to be in harmony with the architectural set-up of the existing building and allows the gaze to move from one space to another in harmony with the veranda, thus creating continuity.

However, the result went beyond expectations: guests love to take advantage of the seats under the pergolas all day long, even to have a quick meal at lunch time. In the evening they can also enjoy a more glamorous space, thanks to the integrated LED lights, which at dusk make the atmosphere even more suggestive and sophisticated.

The
