In order to live your summer to the fullest and transform your garden into a modern, welcoming space even in the hottest hours of the day, take a look at the modern outdoor furniture available. A simple way of arranging your outdoor area in the summer is with a gazebo, a tent, a pergola or a canopied pergola, which can be adjusted easily to your garden. You will finally be able to enjoy your free time in the shade and, most importantly, away from the scorching sun!
The Gazebo
The gazebo, a summer kiosk renowned for its exquisitely architectural profile, is mostly covered with vines. It comes in several materials: wood, wrought iron or masonry. Moreover, It can be open on the sides facing outwards or even posted to the ground. For instance, it is great if you're craving a thirst-quenching aperitif or wish to find shelter from the hottest hours of the day. A gazebo is a useful tool to set up your garden in the summer and to furnish it as you please. However, this outdoor furniture always requires a permit unless it is made for temporary purposes, is lightweight and does not adhere to the ground.
The Tent
Setting up a tent helps you make the most of your garden, regardless of its size. The installation takes nowhere near as long as a gazebo and, since it is a free building intervention, it does not require a permit. We recommend setting up a tent if you are looking for a pretty simple, casual option for the outdoors. It is an ideal structure for outdoor spaces such as balconies or areas of the garden that you want to shelter from the scorching sun.
The canopy pergola
A canopied pergola is a lightweight and removable structure, made of wood or metal and covered by a potentially retractable cloth, bamboo mats, reed or transparent film. In addition, you won't need to build new walls of any kind. For this reason, it can be set up and removed easily at the end of the summer, without the need for a building permit.
The pergola
The pergola is a structure open on at least three sides facing outwards and one at the top. Its main advantages are its lightness, as it is made of wood or any other lightweight material, the lack of foundations and how easy it is to move. It often serves as a support for vines, which create an aesthetic leitmotif with the rest of the garden, whilst also protecting it from the sun. It usually does not require a building permit, unless the top is fully covered or is easily removable.
