Instruction
1. Choose the suitable place it from which the best overview opens is desirable. If the site small, is better if from gazebo all territory is visible. On the big site put gazebo so that it was possible to admire the house and what is about it. It is very good if you have planned fountain or the small pool. Its neighbourhood with gazebo is very appropriate.
2. Think over arrangement concerning parts of the world. The gazebo in the Japanese style has solid wall. It is better if it is southern. Parallel to it arrange canopy support. It will turn out that they will be directed from the West to the East. Such arrangement conveniently and in other respects - in gazebo will be the shady site at any time.
3. Show consideration for material selection. Of course, it is very tempting to construct gazebo of reed and wax paper as it is done sometimes in Japan. But consider difference of weather patterns. The reed gazebo will serve one season. Therefore make it of firm tree of woods or even of stone. However, the last option is not really convenient. Elements of interior are made of the same material, as gazebo. You should not sit on naked stone benches even in hot summer day. It is possible to use, of course, pillows, but it will be violation of the Japanese style which does not suffer anything superfluous.
4. Level site. For marking draw square or rectangle on the earth, having carefully verified corners which have to be strictly direct. Drive angle bearings. Between them separate distances into 6-8 equal parts and drive thinner vertical rails. Support and additional rails have to be identical longwise.
5. Separate each support on height into 4-6 equal parts. In the same way mark also vertical rails. It is necessary that cross-pieces were located strictly horizontally. Fix cross-pieces. "Skeleton" of gazebo at you is ready.
6. The gazebo roof in the Japanese style usually becomes high chetyrekhskatny. It can be in general without any jewelry or with small "turret". The gazebo should not be motley. More preferably dark tone.
7. For the Japanese gazebo it is necessary to pick up the corresponding furniture. It can be low wooden benches. Also the low table is appropriate. If you after all want to lay something on floor, let it will be reed mat.
8. One more distinctive feature of the Japanese style — all buildings ideally fit into landscape. It is possible to arrange with row rock-garden. Ideally they have to settle down in strictly certain order. But if you not really well understand subtleties of the Japanese philosophy, just put several small beautiful stones as it is pleasant to you. In gazebo and about it to you first of all it has to be comfortable.
9. The aspiration to minimalism, so characteristic of the Japanese style, does not prevent to decorate gazebo with greens. Around it it is possible to put ivy and other climbers. Arrange them so that over time they have twisted support. Nearby it is possible to plant several graceful trees. Very well the larch looks, but there can be both pine, and plum, and other tree pleasant to your look and comfortably growing in your climate.
