The atrium – atrium in the house

The atrium already played a major role in ancient Roman architecture. An atrium, often in the center of the house, provides all rooms with additional light and significantly increases the quality of living. The atrium can be open-air and designed as a Japanese garden, for example, or an indoor area covered with glass, which may extend over several floors. An over-height air space is an attractive stylistic element, especially in the entrance area.

Modern atrium houses

A 1-storey or 1.5-storey house with bright rooms is arranged around an artfully staged inner courtyard. The atrium in the center of the building is particularly visible from a bird’s eye view. All the necessary living spaces are arranged around it, most of which benefit from the view into the atrium.
