What were the houses of the towns in Spain like?

There is no one definitive answer to this question as the houses of towns in Spain vary greatly depending on the region and time period in which they were built. Some common features of traditional Spanish houses include thick walls made of brick or stone to keep out the heat, flat or sloping roofs with terracotta tiles, and interior courtyards or patios for ventilation and privacy. Some houses also feature decorative elements such as wrought-iron balconies, colorful ceramic tiles, and ornate wooden doors and shutters. In more modern developments, houses may be built in a range of styles including contemporary, minimalist, and Mediterranean-inspired.
