Architectural Beauty of a Timber Frame Arbor, Gazebo, Pergola, Pavilion
Because Western Timber Frame™ is famous for its well built, oversized timbers in outdoor living timber frame structures I often get into the technical side of the incredible difference The Dovetail Difference™ really makes in creating a structure designed to last for centuries and how easy it is to assemble with the drop in rafters; that they will ship anywhere in the contiguous United States for free; and how amazing timber is; how earth friendly and human friendly it is, offering a more comfortable shade etc.However, it is the magnificence architectural beauty and warmth of a Western Timber Frame™ timber frame pergola, pavilion, gazebo or arbor that excites me most; drawing me out into a place I want to be.
Everybody needs beauty as well as bread, places to play in and pray in, where nature may heal and give strength to body and soul.
~John Muir 1838-1914
Well said. To me there is no place more beautiful and rejuvenating to the body than in nature and the outdoors. An outdoor timber frame pergola is creates a perfect place of solitude. As the 21st century girl that I am, I love being close to the comforts of home; clean and convenient, in a setting where family those you love can gather. That to me is joy:) Now, there is nothing more beautiful than that.
Seasoned wood actively continues to store carbon dioxides even hundred of years after it has been felled. Incredulously, trees do not stop giving us life after they have been harvested into timber.
Real wood provides comforting shade and timber carved with old-world craftsmanship, interlocking together, without the use of nails or glue, is stunningly beautiful. Our ShadeScape® family is turning the backyard into a beautiful vacation resort where they can let loose and play every day.

Continued from: How to Install a DIY Timber Frame Pergola Kit; Setting the Posts & Beams 6/12 We will put a bolt through once all four corners are done then we will be ready to lay up and get all the posts leveled. We then attach some temporary 2 x 4’s attached to the upper beam and we have it all lined up as in this example pictured right.
