Garden Gazebo

The Many Uses of a Home Gazebo

Now it is more important than ever for people to step away from the chaos and constant flux of everyday life and make time to relax. A home gazebo is a perfect place to do this as it gives you a place to sit and reflect away from the kids, the television, the phone, and every other distraction that we have come accustomed to. Gazebos are not only used to sit and ruminate, however; they can used as tea houses, outdoor dining areas, playhouses, pool sheds, garden sheds, work rooms, spa and hot tub houses, or any other way you wish to incorporate it into your home.

When choosing a style and design of your home gazebo, you will want to take into account its primary intended purpose and location. Gazebos that will be free-standing, non-elevated structures will need a suitable foundation for the gazebo to sit on. This may be landscaped ground, concrete, or even a deck. Some gazebos are erected onto hills or small islands in the middle of a pond. Gazebos traditionally have windows that are uncovered but you can opt for an entirely enclosed gazebo with paned windows and locking doors. The shape of your home gazebo can be the customary octagon but it does not have to be; home gazebos can be designed into squares, rectangles, o vals, circles, and even have multiple rooms and levels. Roofs can be plain, multi-tiered, or ornately decorated. Some home gazebos can have porches or small decks added to them. Indoor and outdoor lighting, plants, benches, electricity, water, just about anything can be added to your home gazebo to customize it for your particular needs.
