Ivy wraps up around the columns of this gazebo, giving it a cozy, cottage-style feel. A white exterior keeps the space extra bright and inviting in the sunny weather. Large potted plants frame the accordion door opening, and a hanging lantern fits the style perfectly and offers event lighting.

This attractive home has stairs leading down to the swimming pool from its two main levels. The pool features groups of lounge chairs and is surrounded by a spacious yard.

Bright, colored lanterns bring a fun and playful element to this gazebo design. Accordion doors allow control over how open or closed the space is to the connecting patio and swimming pool area. Stylish neutral furniture features a collection of colorful throw pillows echoing the vivid lantern mixture.

A pergola provides partial shade over a row of wood lounge chairs sitting poolside in this bright backyard. Vase-like end tables separate the chairs and add a functional decorative touch to the patio. Vivid grass and healthy plant life create a bright frame around the water.
