Esther, Psalms, Kings, Samuel, and Jeremiah make reference to spiritual pavilions as being under Jehovah’s favor and protection, to be kept in His most intimate confidence, perfectly secure, to be one of His “hidden ones.” Under His pavilion, in the secret of His presence, none can enter the “inner court” save those He admits.

Pavilions and Gazebos have long been places of refuge, relaxation, and protection from the elements. America’s Architect Thomas Jefferson wrote about pavilions and gazebos, then called summerhouses. At Mount Vernon, First President George Washington had an eight-sided architectural garden structure.

Pavilions can be freestanding or connected by a covered walkway or building, while gazebos are often categorized by its shape and function, e.g. a vantage point to take in the surrounding view. If defined by the vantage point in taking in the surrounding landscape, this stunning ShadeScape™ would absolutely be classed as a Gazebo. On the East side is a breathtaking view of the majestic Wasatch Mountains and to the West is the colorful Oquirrh Mountain range. Sunrise or sunset the show is spectacular!

Western Timber Frame™ offers a unique service of individual ShadeScape™ shelter and deck designs fit for each different landscape. Our ShadeScape™ owner, Connie said this was her exact dream, just the way she pictured it. It has been the perfect gathering place for her family and friends. Instantly, when meeting Connie, I knew why she needed this space. Connie is one of the most loving people I have ever been introduced to. Her laughter is contagious as she expressed to me a few times, how she really wanted to adopt Brian. Brian Thompson is the Design Manager, (about the same age as her son) who helped Connie to get her dream ShadeScape™ and deck just the way she envisioned it. Though I do know why; Brian really cares about people.

After what Connie calls her “Gavilion” was to be installed, she asked if they could also do a deck for her to match. Like the Pavilion-Gazebo ShadeScape™, the timber frame deck has integrated TimberVolt™ Power Posts as well as a service ramp. As seen through the many photos here, no matter how late, this backyard is a serene place to sit back and relax with those you love.

Thank you, Connie and cousin, Karen, two beautiful ladies, for the pictures and the wonderful evening! And a special mention, Zoe, the sweetest dog.
