Top level open room (poton) with projecting platform

Kovačevica, Bulgaria

One corner of the large poton of this three-story kăšta incorporates a projecting shelf area framed with a balustrade that admits added light and view. Built-in seating creates a welcoming gathering space for fine weather. The exposed timber roof framing above contrasts with the adjacent (foreground) poton space with a wood panelled ceiling.
