This is a small space, but a large part of living in this home so we want to look carefully at how to improve it. Here we look at the design concept and how we've applied used solar studies to refine it. Right now it is underused, with a prefab storage shed, trashcans and air conditioner units. We're relocating the units onto the roof of the elevator and the storage and trashcans will be organized into the ends of a pergola seating area.
