Etymology, history, meaning-
patio. another nook away from the loud deadlines and echoes that pepper our days...it stands ready to remind us that quality time and our friendships with each other go a long way to help us grow and mature as individuals. the stark walls capture the artistry of students and teachers who have inscribed their philosophies in print, defining at this point, on what it means to live a truly meaningful life.
patio
1828, "inner court open to the sky," from Sp. patio probably from O.Prov. patu, pati "untilled land, communal pasture," from L. pactum "agreement" (see pact). Another theory traces the Sp. word to L. patere "to lie open." Meaning "paved and enclosed terrace beside a building" first recorded 1941.
–noun, plural -i·os.

we started with nothing. an austere space on the search for meaning. reco and i scouted the backlanes of holland v and ikea to source for furniture. even dempsey road wasn't spared. i drew energy from the council who juggled work, post-exam blues, copious amounts of sweat, communal tensions and cramped necks to get the project moving. 8th council legacy. and parts of it came framed with poetry. draped in classic hues of black and framed by infinite bands of white. there are tufts of grass, a sofa, a swing and carpet-reds that map the floor...propped with warm collection of bamboo seats…what more do you need? 
it lies sandwiched the academic hallways of the college...a delicious and warm fudge-mix of home-based eclecticism specially dedicated to all students and teachers. allows easy access to the staff room as well as the library. an outdoor lounge to chill or retreat whenever one needs to study, chat or simply, to dream and be. i sound like an estate agent already.
