This modern patio home architecture is contemporary yet cozy – not an easy combination to do right. Marcio Kogan of Brazil architecture firm Studio MK27 created this patio house design to bring nature indoors on a whole new level. The courtyard house opens to the outdoors for a sense of boundlessness, but elements like concrete ceilings up the cozy factor. On the other side of the expansive glazing, large patio areas essentially double the home’s living space. The ground floor houses the home’s social spaces – kitchen, service area and living room with an amazing fireplace feature – while upstairs, three bedrooms enjoy privacy while the master opens onto a rooftop deck.
