What Makes It Work
- Outdoor entertaining turns dramatic when night falls and the edges of the space drop away into darkness. I imagine this courtyard makes a terrific backdrop for a party, with the splashing of the fountain and the mysterious vine-covered walls receding into the dim. Potted trees and shrubs further divide the space, carving it into charming nooks and crannies.
