This article contains answers to the main questions that you may have in connection with the construction of a gazebo for a summer residence. Photos, which are contained here in large numbers, will serve for greater clarity.

Types of country houses

Pergolas can be divided into several types: open and glazed, simple and complex, for barbecues and barbecues. In addition, they differ in size and materials from which they are made.

Small outdoor pavilions

The simplest version of a country house is an open canopy on poles. It can be built from any materials: wood, stone, brick or metal. The roof can be two-, four-, six- and eight pitched, the number of supporting pillars can also vary. A country house like the one in the photo is quite simple to build with your own hands.

Next, another type of simple gazebo, made of metal. This frame structure which is assembled by welding. In most cases, the construction of such a summerhouse takes a day, a maximum of two. The frame is welded from a profile of small diameter. Sheathing is made of polycarbonate or lining, as in the photo. The construction will be relatively budget.

And below is another version of the open design. In fact, this is the same canopy, but decorated around the perimeter with artistic forging. Forged gazebos for summer cottages are more beautiful, but they will also have an appropriate price. It will not work to repeat this on your own, since forging requires a special workshop and complex equipment. However, you can order a forged gazebo from a specialized company.

Note:the dimensions of all the country houses described above can be any. From 4 - 5m 2, to large-sized ones with an area of ​​​​20 - 25m 2. The choice of size should be based on the size of the garden plot and financial framework.

Buildings of complex shape

There are garden houses, which are divided into zones not due to their size, but due to a special layout. So, for example, the design in the next photo has a separate "room" for the furnace complex. You can also find garden houses with woodsheds, pantries, divided into open and closed recreation areas.

What are country arbors: log building

In the next photo - a two-tier summer gazebo for a summer residence. It turns out as many as four zones: a kitchen, one closed for recreation and two open, on the first and second tiers. There is a utility block under the stairs. This option is best suited for a spacious plot with a two-story cottage or residential building. Next to a small country house, such a design will look unnecessarily cumbersome.

Glazed country houses

They can be divided into two types: non-insulated and insulated. The first type is in the photo below. The building consists of metal frame lined on the bottom artificial stone, and taken from above with "cold" double-glazed windows. There is no warming here. An uninsulated country house can be operated all summer and autumn. And on warm winter days, it will be comfortable here with the heater turned on.

Insulated structures are built already capitally: from logs, timber or bricks, on a strip foundation. Glazing here is done with double-glazed windows. Heating is required: stove or electric. Operate such country gazebo can all year round even in the most severe frosts. for summer and autumn period the building can even serve as a guest house.

Country houses for barbecues and barbecues

The simplest and affordable option, this is the construction of a summer cottage with an earthen floor or paving slab flooring. For a sample, you can take the design from the following photo. Such a building is built very quickly, and with the help of accessories it is easy to decorate in almost any style.

Note:the height of the canopy should be such that the smoke from the hearth does not fall to the heads of the people inside. If it is not possible to raise the roof to the desired height, then a chimney must be made.

And a more closed version of country gazebos for barbecues, grills and barbecues. There should be at least three walls, solid or fenced around the perimeter, as in the photo. Support poles can be wood, stone or metal. Zoning space in a country gazebo of this type is optional, depending on the size of the building.

Next - a variant of a country gazebo for a spacious area. Here, not just zoning was done due to the shape of the building or its size. The gazebo here is divided into two parts, which are located at a distance from each other. In operation, such a summer cottage complex for recreation is very convenient, but it is difficult to call it a budget one.

Preparation for design

Before proceeding with the drafting of a country house, you need to go to a personal plot and choose a place for construction. The selection is carried out according to the following criteria:

• Sufficient distance from the cottage or home. Think about how much the noise will bother you. Perhaps it makes sense to place a gazebo in the back of the garden. Minimum distance- 3 meters.
• No excessive soil moisture.
• Aesthetic side of the issue. Think about what kind of view you would like to have from the summerhouse.

Note:a mandatory design stage is drawing up a sketch. It should be a drawing reflecting the main points. Something like: the shape of the building, the location of the key elements in it, the design and the proposed decor elements.

Do-it-yourself gazebo in the country: creating a sketch

How to make a gazebo in the country: design

Now that we have the necessary measurements from the future construction site and a sketch of a country house, you can start drafting a project. And the next step is a preliminary drawing. Based on the sketch, a drawing is made, which reflects all the nuances of the design of the summer house:

• Quantity bearing walls or supports, the structure of parapets.

preliminary drawing

Note:the dimensions on the preliminary drawing are final, to scale. This is important, because on its basis you will draw up working drawings, according to which construction will be carried out.

Next, we make working drawings of a summerhouse. They should be detailed, with clearly set dimensions, so that there is no confusion during the construction process. Separately, we make drawings of complex nodes: the junction of the rafter legs, the attachment of the support poles to the strapping, the place where the pipe exits to the roof, etc.

A little about the construction of gazebos

When building small, light country houses, you should not spend money on a strip foundation. Wooden or welded buildings with an area of ​​up to 10 m 2 are placed on a shallow columnar foundation. It is done by pouring a cement-sand-gravel mixture into the pits, or by concreting ready-made aerated concrete blocks in the ground.

It is also necessary to say a few words about the construction of country gazebos with open sources of fire: with a barbecue, barbecue or grill. It is best to build them from brick or stone, and the wall behind the hearth should be blank. If you still want to have garden house made of wood, then take care of fire safety: sew up the walls adjacent to the fire source with DSP sheets.

Design and decor of gazebos

There are two trends in the design of gazebos: in the same style as a residential building / cottage and separate design. In this section, we will present you some of the most popular design options for country houses.

Pavilions in Ukrainian and Russian style

The Ukrainian style in the design of summerhouses is easily recognizable by the thatched roofs and the whitewashed stove complex and the lower part of the building. This is how the garden house is stylized as a Ukrainian hut, familiar to many from Gogol's descriptions. The furniture and interior decor of the building is also selected in accordance with the peasant life of that time.

To decorate a country gazebo from the outside, install a wattle fence from branches, lean against it various household tools. The photo below is an example of how you can decorate the space near the gazebo, decorated in the Ukrainian style.

How to decorate a country house outside: imitation vegetables and peasant household items

Garden arbors in the Russian style are of two types: log and carved. Log houses are designed to imitate the hut of a Russian peasant, and carved houses are merchant houses, which were previously richly decorated with through or ordinary carvings. The next photo shows a carved garden house. For decoration of both types of arbors, as in the case of the Ukrainian style, items of peasant life are used.

Another direction close to Russian: rustic style. If the logs of a Russian-style building are smooth, then here the woodworking is deliberately careless. In some cases, wood is even brushed to give it more relief. The interior decoration is also selected in the same way: the furniture is primitive, often clumsy, and the textiles that decorate the summerhouse are made of coarse linen fabrics.

Finnish, Scandinavian and Provencal styles

A summerhouse in the Finnish style is always closed, glazed, but not insulated. As a rule, buildings of this type are round, but there are exceptions: square and rectangular. The hearth in such a house is most often located in the center of the room. The design itself is made in a restrained color scheme outside and finished with natural wood from the inside. Curtains are used as decoration and sofa cushions bright colors.

Country house in the Finnish style

Designs decorated in the Scandinavian style are distinguished by minimalism and simplicity. This applies to both the design of the country house and the interior decor. Scandinavian gazebos can be not only open, as in the photo, but also closed, glazed. In this case, the windows of the building should be panoramic. In decorating such a gazebo there should not be frills and variegation. As a rule, the design includes two or three colors.

Provencal style is distinguished by an abundance of white in design. And all the other colors used in the design are pale, as if “dusty”. If textiles are used as decoration, then the pattern on its surface should not be large. As a rule, these are crayons with a floral print. Furniture here is chosen as light as possible visually.

Any garden plot is unthinkable without places intended for recreation. A garden gazebo is an integral element of almost every garden, decorating and complementing it, and serving to protect against the vagaries of the weather.
