Quick Start

Two opposing gate approaches lead into an open courtyard enclosed by four low sheltered wings and stepped horseshoe arcades.

  1. 1

    Enter from either gate

    Use the centered north or south gate. The central arcade opens onto the courtyard beside the reflecting rill.

  2. 2

    Walk the complete cloister

    Follow the covered sandstone walkway behind the inner arches. The north, east, south and west wings meet at all four corners.

  3. 3

    Explore the garden

    Follow the dry paths around the contained rill and four decorative orange trees.

An original block-scale interpretation of Andalusian courtyard architecture, with decorative planting and shallow water.
