Margie Grace - Grace Design Associates This is in Montecito, CA - southern coast of Santa Barbara County. The climate here is mild. This room is used pretty much year round. I don't see this room getting much use where you've got winter snow and summer insects...

Margie Grace - Grace Design Associates Ah! My client calls this a loggia --- it has the same roofing system as the house. The loggia is attached to the house and is, basically, another room like all the other rooms - just no walls/windows. There's lighting and heating (radiant heat in the floor (devine!), a ceiling fan, deep eaves, tile roof above attic space and ceiling. In our climate, this is an all-season "room".

Form + Foliage LLC where are the lights from?

ybot Does this room have any form of roof apart from ivy growing over the top? If not what happens if it rains? It looks like a pergola with ivy ,is that correct?

Margie Grace - Grace Design Associates My client calls this room a loggia. It has a complete roof like the rest of the house. The vine is Boston Ivy (Parthenocissus tricuspicata).
