Up the Villa #ralphcourtgardens 12

These genuinely look like real apartments. They could rent them out to visitors that just want some peace and quiet and inspiration. They’ve got a few hours spare in the evenings when everyone else goes home to make sketches and have a bit of tranquillity and escapism. It would only need a bed and a shower inside; maybe a small kitchenette if they don’t want to live off the offerings of the café. There’s an interesting skylight in the corner that almost makes it look like there’s a lighthouse. I suppose there could be a tower of stairs inside to gain access to a first floor on the right. Perhaps there’s a hatch that lets the gardeners climb through the window to trim the foliage on top of the rooftops or scrub the tiles. But the fountain has climbed higher to better attract our attention. If one jet gets out of place, it could certainly soak passers-by.
