OPEN OUTDOOR FURNITURE AND STRUCTURES-Pergolas, Gazebos, Trellis- TIPS

Have you ever come out of your house on a sunny hot day, you feel like getting some nice cool fresh air but all you see is an extension of grass with nowhere to seat?? Well, that always kills the mood but i am going to unravel that for you.
There are simple outdoor furniture and structures which can make your compound look warm and welcoming. If well implemented in the compound, you cannot regret! Let's find out what i'm talking about here.

PERGOLA

It is a structure that won't provide shelter from

pergola @ the front-yard
wind or rain, and is only marginally better
when it comes to the midday sun. So, why build it? Because in the absence of walls and a roof, it defines an outdoor space without constraining it. It's a unique architectural blend that places you both inside and out at the same time. Do you wish to construct one in your home?Read more to get yours.

There are different types of pergola designs which suites different types of homes. You
just need to be flexible when choosing.




GAZEBO
                                                                                       
Similar to a pergola, it is an open outdoor
structure only that it does not allow rain inside
it. In short, they are roofed and open on all sides
and they can be free standing or attached to
a garden wall.
They can be constructed at your home level
or can be readily bought and just placed in
your home landscape.

Gazebos also take different shapes and designs
depending on its location and functions.
If you want a nice outdoor chilling spot, dream about a gazebo.



TRELLIS

This structure is partially like a pergola, only that
trellis forming entrance
forms a path way as opposed to a seating place.
Even though, seats can be places on the edges.
It can form the perfect entry to your house main
door.
Climbing plants can be made to grow on them
hence acting as support and simultaneously, the plants beautify the trellis.
There are different types of trellis commencing from archs, flowers, wedding and metal trellis.
The occasion rules the type!
