wouldn't it have been better to design that drop wall as a roof/awning to protect from sun and rain??

i mean, Costa Rica after all.

just saying.

@gljohnson33 Actually we thought of that but the weight is too much. We install awnings instead.

If I was to hire you to install a house like this on my lot in Jaco area, what kind of building permit do I need to obtain? How costly is it going to be?

crime is pretty severe up here in the states as well.  We have a different name for it though "federal government".

COCAINE SHOLD BE USED ONCE IN A WHILE NOT EVERYDAY

Also, if you might considered using the end doors to support a deck, which could compensate the less cutting of the side wall, still a lot of light and air coming into the building. Or even more interesting to have interesting building elevation and a stronger structure to resist the tropical hurricane ! George Wu, AIA 2012-1-6

As an architect, I believed that the structural integrity of the container is destroyed the way the entire side of the container was cut out completely. Yes, you could do it with reinforcement, but it is not the understanding way to use the container. However , it does not have to be one end to end opening, which could still be done with two or more smaller openings, and it will also be lighter to close the glass opening with two or more decks.
