Offering up versatility and function, a aluminium outdoor gazebo provides shade from the sun and protection from pesky insects. You will first need to decide how you want to use your gazebo and where you plan to put it. There are a number of ways to use a gazebo depending your needs and lifestyle — read on for some ideas.

Sitting Area
Simply add a patio conversation set under your canopy for an inviting and comfortable outdoor living room. Layer in outdoor rugs, pillows, and other decor like lanterns and plants to create a homey space that’s reminiscent of your indoor living room.

Outdoor Dining
For something a little more low-key – think alfresco family dinners or weekend brunches – place an outdoor dining set under a gazebo on your deck or patio space. Much like you’d accessorize the dining room in your home, add an outdoor area rug for texture and string lights for a festive glow.

Outdoor Lounging
If a spa-inspired space is more your pace, line up patio loungers under a gazebo canopy for a shady poolside cabana effect. Lay down an outdoor rug to protect your feet from hot cement and add cushions for extra support as well as decorative pillows for a splash of color. Lastly, surround your canopy-covered space with plenty of planters for a peaceful backyard paradise.
