Shelter Effects Your Happiness w/Space, Light & Material —Even Shapes Character

By |2021-01-05T09:08:14-07:00January 4th, 2021|Pergola Kits|

The shapes and arrangements of the spaces you live in have cognitive effects on your brain.Designers of architecture and living spaces are not necessarily in control of the occupants health. And yet, architecture is not passive; it does influence human health, emotions and modifies behavior. Studies from neuroscientists and psychologists show that architecture effects moods and actions. For the most part, it is simple, common sense —a living area that provides a pleasant layout with adequate space is calm and welcoming. A tight or overcrowded living space creates the concept of burden, with an awareness of feeling weighed down. According to the American Institute of Architects, continuing education for architects should go beyond the fundamentals of design to support basic health, safety, and welfare.People are hard-wired for human interaction with comfortable spacing. An office purposely encouraging physical movement has been proven to influence people’s levels of productivity. [...]

Smart Pavilion Pergola Design — Shade & Sunlight Correlation

By |2020-11-19T14:19:43-07:00November 19th, 2020|Pergola Kits|

Your yard is the presentation of your home. Landscaping with architecture is the perfect way to create a more pristine landscape. For some, it is a welcoming storefront, extension of a business or recreational space. Light and shade also play a role in how inviting an atmosphere feels within the surroundings. On the earth, there is nothing more important than the sun. The sun warms the sea while its life-giving light embraces you with warmth and glory. It generates weather patterns, your sleep patterns —gives energy to plants, providing you with food and oxygen. The UV rays of this magnificent ball of fire helps your body make nutrients and take in minerals which is vital to your blood cells, bones, and immune system. Measuring the amount of sun exposure to your home, landscape or garden before you consider your protective covering is [...]

Add Curve Appeal to Multipurpose Outdoor Living Shelter

We "fall in love" with the families we get to build for and we work to give them only what they really need. This means asking key questions to help reveal their desires: How do I want to use your space? How many people will it regularly serve? Are there existing elements you would you like to incorporate? If you could, what would you make differently? What is most important to you? Shade shelters are not just for shade; they are multipurpose living areas and the way each family uses their backyard living area differs. And as varying as people are in how they want to spend their time, people also have different ideas of what their personal space should feel like for them. All ShadeScape® kits are designed to meet the needs of each homeowner —fitting their landscape and area the way that best suits [...]

Spread the wings of your imagination wide and let your mind soar with pictures and if you'd like, talk with a Design Consultant for more ideas. For example, yesterday a lady said she had really dreamed of having a trellis up the side of her deck to grow vines on. However, it was the only place for steps to access the upper deck. Her face lit up as her Design Consultant showed her how she could have it integrated together. It was a delight for him to experience her enthusiasm, and not only was it better than it would have been —it created a masterpiece focus point.
