Ceilings for your garden

Just like indoors, outdoor spaces also require some kind of a ceiling. While indoor ceilings are definite and straightforward, outdoor ceilings are more subtle. They are typically created by canvas awnings, overhead trellises, arbours, pergolas, the bottom of tree canopies or even the clouds in the sky.

But outdoor ceilings are not any less important. The choice of which ceiling to use in the different ‘rooms’ within the garden is an important decision as it determines the quality of outdoor space you create.
