Lattice Gazebos Add Sophisticated Charm to Your Yard

Lattice gazebos look particularly lovely in a garden or backyard. Most gazebos you see have rails or posts, or solid walls. Lattice is a unique look. Using lattice work in a gazebo’s construction still creates a sense of privacy and enclosure, but the openwork of the wood lattice walls allows sunlight and air to easily pass through, creating a feeling of airy spaciousness. The lattices invite one to plant decorative climbing vines or roses around the gazebo, helping it to blend in with the landscape and make it look like it’s always been there. The only thing missing from this pic are plants around the gazebo; it’s a little naked to me. They would help soften the base and anchor the structure in the landscape. But I want you to admire the cool latticework for now….

Lattice gazebos are great to use as a spa or hot tub enclosure because they offer a measure of privacy while letting in cool summer breezes and dappled sunlight. They just look classy in the yard. This cedar lattice gazebo is a gazebo kit style called the “Premier Garden Grove” and is sold online by WillyGoat. Cedar is a wood well-known for its weather resistance. This gazebo measures 12′ in diameter and has aluminum screens in aluminum frames. Click on the picture for more information. There are other sizes available. If you’re thinking about installing a permanent gazebo in your yard or garden, consider stylish lattice gazebos.
