For most, our biggest investment is our home. As we move into the hottest season of the year, it’s time to take your outdoor area up a notch to improve your fun in the sun. Cabanas are back in vogue as a way to link outdoor areas and provide shade close to facilities such as a tennis court or pool. Consistent features and materials throughout your outdoor area will create a cohesive whole and make the transition easier from one space to the next.
A big trend in cabanas is to design adjustable external walls and floor plans for extra versatility. Sliding and concertinaed doors, movable internal partitions, removable external walls, retractable ceilings and awnings, and louvers that can be opened or shut are all features to consider. Flexible design means your cabana can be adapted to your needs, whether as an office, gym, yoga retreat, artist room or spare bedroom, in addition to the usual entertaining purposes.
