Being a region characterized by its wide variety of landscapes, biodiversity and thermal floors, the design of interior patios in Colombian homes accompanies the living, resting, access, and circulation spaces, being, on many occasions, protagonists and a source of contact with the surrounding nature.
The arrangement of internal courtyards in dwellings contributes to fostering the relationship between the interior and the exterior, regardless of whether their position in the layout is central. It acts as a divider of different spatialities, articulates different programs, or is used in residual spaces. Due to its location in the equatorial zone, one of the peculiarities of Colombia is that it does not have four seasons (summer, winter, autumn, and spring), but beyond that, the climates are diverse, with temperatures of over 24ºC in the hottest areas and below 6ºC in the glacial areas.
