Outdoor living is easier with these Patio Roofing ideas!

Your home's Patio Roofing can increase the amount of living space by establishing an outside living space. That outdoor space will be much more useful if patio covers are included in your design plan. 

You provide the outdoor space with a cover, protecting you from the weather. You can utilize your outside living space more frequently with a patio cover. You'll also be able to use the patio for the majority, if not all, of the year, depending on the temperature where the homeowner lives. 

This enables you to enjoy your backyard's splendor whether you wish to relax by yourself or host family and friends for an outside meal and shady seating.

When installed properly, a patio cover can aid in bridging the gap between your inside and outside rooms. AD covers you whether you're trying to freshen up backyard ideas or add some flair to concrete patio ideas.

Using what can I cover my patio?

You can cover your patio with several different sorts of materials. These include outdoor fabrics, sails for shading, pergolas made of wood, and steel and aluminum buildings. Awnings, canopies, retractable covers, and even cabanas are options.

There are many different types of shade structures that are available and get better every year. These include retractable awnings, large market umbrellas, built-in pergolas, wrought iron patio coverings, and many others.

Additionally, patio umbrellas offer fragrant vines that add a layer of eye-pleasing beauty—any aromatic vine, including roses, wisteria, jasmine, and stephanotis. 

Here are patio roofing ideas from professionals in the gardening and design fields to help you make the most of your outdoor space.

Include a pergola with cool lighting

The great thing about patio covers is that they offer shade throughout the day and a framework for installing gas or electric heaters to keep cool evenings cozy, according to Scharff.  

Pergolas offer the chance to hang pendant lighting, as shown by the area she created. Cathy. Do you need to be able to read at night? She uses two methods for lighting the outdoors. Consider chandeliers and wall sconces as examples of décor and ambiance as one tactic. The second type of lighting is for real task illumination, such as recessed cans in a built-in patio cover.

Make a submerged living space.

An outdoor space can be given a midcentury modern twist by having a sunken living room. The method is praised for its capacity to create a resort-like living environment, enhanced by a patio cover made of hardy Brazilian Ipe wood and cantilevered roofs that offer shade from the sun.

Create an elevated patio roofing.

According to Purple Cherry, elevating a patio has the wonderful benefit of making the steps into chairs. Additionally, elevating a terrace offers a better view while visitors take in the nearby pool quite literally. For best results, ensure the patio is deep enough to accommodate all the furniture.

Lineup of my brazilian OCs, their stories begin in the 40s and come to an end in the 70s or so. The characters at the top are related to the building of Brasilia, while the characters at the bottom are mostly musicians living the shift in the midcentury brazilian music industry. There’s also a little me in there for height reference <:)

#paolo #rainer #carolina #ton #oc #stone flower #brazil #the characters of paolo's story are still a wip and don't have definitive names yet #from left to right : his late life love interest ; his best friend ; and his uncle #ill probably make a webco about paolo so stay tuned lol :) i really like bossa nova #my art

Meet the Boundary-Breaking Brazilian Designers Making Some of the World’s Most Inventive Furniture

Here are the pioneering creative talents leading the way.

One day in 2002, brothers and design partners Humberto and Fernando Campana came across a São Paulo street vendor selling stuffed animals, bought a bunch and promptly stitched them into a chair with stainless-steel legs. Soft, joyfully floppy and slightly surreal, the chair has spawned numerous editions and has become one of contemporary design’s most recognizable objects, with fans ranging from Kylie Jenner to the contemporary artist KAWS. But more than launching Estudio Campana to fame, their boundary-breaking audacity has paved the way for a new generation of Brazilian designers, giving them a global spotlight the country hasn’t enjoyed since midcentury furniture makers such as Joaquim Tenreiro and Lina Bo Bardi were on the scene.

This younger breed of artisans share their predecessors’ affinity for modernism and devotion to materials, but those woods are not the locally sourced examples that were the old guard’s calling card. Jacaranda, a dark rosewood that was a favorite of the midcentury designers, has been logged almost to the point of extinction, and the exportation of it is now highly restricted. Even so, Brazil’s deforestation of the Amazon is at a 12-year high. “The situation is really terrible,” says Virgilio Viana, the director general of the Amazonas Sustainability Foundation and one of the country’s leading experts on environmental preservation. “We’re coming very close to a tipping point, a point of no return beyond which the forest collapses.”

The 21st-century Brazilians featured here have responded by experimenting with everything from glass and rope to salvaged wood—in one case, from a famous forebear’s studio. Rather than a signature material, their constant is invention. In a fast-growing nation where independent creators still drive the design conversation, that approach is producing some of the most idiosyncratic and compelling furniture in the world.

A double whammy of climate change and deforestation could double the area burned by wildfires in the southern Brazilian Amazon forest, simulations suggest. That increase in fires could burn up to 16 percent of the region by 2050 and release enough carbon dioxide to flip parts of the forest from carbon dioxide sponge to source — exacerbating greenhouse gas warming rather than combating it. Avoiding new deforestation, however, could slow or prevent that transition, researchers report January 10 in Science Advances.

Scientists previously have warned that these two effects — climate change and deforestation — may already be drying out parts of the Amazon, reducing its ability to soak up atmospheric carbon dioxide and making it more susceptible to wildfires (SN: 8/23/19).

How the wildfires themselves might exacerbate the problem and increase emissions isn’t usually included in climate simulations. But the blazes play a role: Combusting trees and underbrush releases CO2 directly to the atmosphere. And the heat-driven breakdown of plant matter can add other climate-warming gases such as methane, nitrogen oxides and carbon monoxide. Trees felled by fire and slowly decomposing also emit CO2 for years.

In the new study, researchers led by forest ecologist Paulo Brando of the University of California, Irvine, simulated how several different climate and deforestation scenarios would alter the future area, intensity and greenhouse gas emissions of fires in the southern Brazilian Amazon. When it comes to burned area and fire intensity, the most important variable, the team found, was drought — in particular, the dampness of the understory layer of plants and soil. Even under moderate future greenhouse gas emissions, fires in the region will be more severe due to shifting climate patterns that will tend to dry out the region.

But avoiding new deforestation could greatly reduce the fire danger, even under the highest-emissions scenario, the team found. By midcentury, preventing new deforestation reduced the area burned by 30 percent, and shrank emissions of carbon dioxide and other gases by 56 percent. That could help the forest maintain its status as a carbon storehouse, the researchers say.

Architecture - Instituto Moreira Salles by Olavo Redig de Campos, 1951. an early example of Brazilian mid-century modern architecture. Olavo Redig de Campos was one of the founding fathers of Brazil's modern architectural movement during the 1940's and 1950s. Originally designed as a home for the Moreira Salles banking family, the house is situated on a forested plot in Gávea. Ambassador Walter Moreira Salles commissioned Olavo Redig de Campos to create a mansion where he could host lavish parties for distinguished guests. It is organised around a trapezoidal central courtyard, which is surrounded on three sides by glass walls and opens onto a garden with an irregularly shaped pool designed by Roberto Burle Marx. Other facades feature latticed blockwork and blue-tiled murals, while a an undulating canopy covers a passage to the dining area. The house was designed all the way down to the door handles, which were shaped to fit the hand of the owner. It became the headquarters of the Instituto Moreira Salles in 1999, and currently hosts various cultural exhibitions. When 'Casa Moreira Salles' was constructed in 1951 it was surrounded by the mostly untouched Tijuca rainforest. Due to the expansion of Rio de Janeiro from the 1950s and onwards, the Tijuca rainforest that surrounded the house is now a mostly urbanized zone . . . .
