Seattle Outdoor Spaces create elegant, custom outdoor designs and our backyard pavilions are just one of them. We work with you to design and create the perfect backyard pavilion for your home. From rustic to classy and modern pavilions, we’re ready to work with you to elevate your outdoor living space.
A backyard pavilion is a great place for entertaining friends and family, especially if you already have an outdoor entertainment area. It’s also great as an extra space to spend time with the kids, or even just as a quiet, relaxing place for you to curl up with a book.
Building on to your home is about creating space for moments and memories, like being able to watch your kids have fun swimming while relaxing under a shady pavilion.
The Benefits Of Having A Backyard Pavilion
Provides Shelter
The number one reason for building an outdoor pavilion would be the shelter it can provide. If you already have a functional patio, with outdoor furniture, a pavilion takes it to the next level.
Instead of putting up umbrellas that blow away with every gust of wind, or get moldy after a bit of rain, a pavilion is a long-lasting, durable structure that will provide shade and shelter from the elements.
Now your outdoor furniture or even your outdoor kitchen will be protected from rain and sun damage. Not to mention, a pavilion is very stylish and sophisticated!
Great for Entertaining
If you love to have your family and friends over regularly, but hate having to dodge the sun or have to move indoors because it gets too hot, a pavilion can solve this problem. Installing a backyard pavilion creates an aesthetically beautiful hideaway in your outdoor space.
Instead of the entertainment space being a solid extension to your home, it’s more of a breakaway space.
It’s also perfect if you have an outdoor kitchen and dining area. Not only does it provide protection, but it also creates a separate entertainment space.
Increases Value of your Home
Every bit of extra construction you do to your home will increase the value and an outdoor pavilion is no different.
It’s not only about the value of the construction, but also the value it provides. For instance, a patio is a great addition to a home, everybody loves to have a space to entertain. But, if you elevate a patio or outdoor space, to include a structure, like a pavilion, it bumps up the value significantly!
Different Styles Available
Henry Ford famously said, “Any customer can have a car painted any color that he wants, so long as it is black.” Well, times have certainly changed and when it comes to backyard pavilions, you really don’t have to settle for just any style.
If your home is a Spanish Revival-style home, then a cabana-style pavilion would work wonderfully. If your home is more rustic, there are wood and paver styles that would suit it very well.
Alternatively, you could opt for a custom pavilion, entirely to your specifications, to suit your home.
Unique Outdoor Experience
If you love entertaining and, above all else, ‘wowing’ your guests, it’s about the aesthetics of the setting. Building an outdoor pavilion increases the features you could add to your outdoor entertainment area. You could add fans, for those hot summer days. Or you could even add a fireplace, for the cooler evenings, when you want to sit outside with a book, glass of wine, and a roaring fire.
If you have a pool, a pavilion is a great feature to place next to it. It will provide some shade when you want to relax near the pool. You could even house an outdoor bar or lounge area under a pavilion. The sky’s the limit on this one!
Durability
For many years, collapsible gazebos were a thing. You could take them with you when you went camping or when you had a cookout at home and needed some shade. After a while, they can get a bit dingy, they start tearing, or one of the joints breaks.
Now, we’re not saying these don’t have their place in our lives. But isn’t it easier to have something permanent and more durable against the elements? Backyard pavilions are far more durable structure than anything that can be erected and collapsed at will. It’s also very low maintenance. It would require some cleaning, but overall, you won’t need to replace or repair anything.
