The Best Carport Design Ideas Are Beautiful and Functional
The best carport designs provide more than just a place to park. When I was growing up, the house next to my grandparents was a rental, and it was forever being changed and altered as tenants moved in, changed things to their liking, then moved on. It appears that the landlord was very permissive, because one tenant converted the garage into a den, only for the next to be at a loss as to where he should park his 1967 C2 Corvette Stingray. His solution was to build a sort of lean-to next to the house. It was a ramshackle affair made...

Pergola Swing Ideas for an Easy DIY Project
A pergola with a swing can be a fun, functional addition to a yard or patio. My aunt–the same one who recently put in a raised garden bed–has a small patio which has been sitting mostly empty for some time now. She doesn’t have room for a big structure, but her patio definitely needs something that will make it an attractive place to relax and socialize.

How to Choose a Pavilion Roof Truss Design
Pavilion roof truss designs will vary based on the size of the pavilion and the steepness of the roof. A long time ago, while repairing a detached garage for my mother, I had an epic argument with her about cutting replacements for the top chords of a truss that had rotted away. An experienced electrical engineer, my mother, upon hearing the word ‘slope,’ had decided that the slope-intercept form of the equation of a line would deliver all needed dimensions and angles. Words were said, I had to spend three days doing a task that should have taken three hours, and...

An Asian Inspired Pergola Design Complements Simple Garden Styles
Red paint or stain, ornate hardware, and a privacy lattice can all help to give your pergola an Asian flair. I have a client who is in the middle of a feng shui redesign. You might know already that feng shui is an Eastern design style used to maximize energy flow. The garden is one of the most important parts of this design philosophy, which is why my client was looking for an Asian inspired pergola design to set off her new, Eastern-style garden. I thought this was a great idea, as pergolas are easy to adapt for this type of...

Tips for Selecting the Right Gazebo Truss Brackets
Gazebo truss brackets not only need to hold up to the outdoor environment, they need to look good as well. Recently, one of my friends invited me to a barbecue. My response was to be instantly wary. As someone who’s worked in construction for over a decade, my friends and family are always inviting me over and then sneakily asking me if I’d mind giving them a quick hand with something. But my buddy assured me he just wanted to put the new gazebo he’d just built to use. Predictably, once he’d thrown the burgers on the grill he pointed up...
