Outdoor Living

Dream your design. Design your dream.

(Metro) -- So, you've talked things over with your family and you want a beautiful new structure on your property. Maybe it's a shed, pool cabana, garage, playhouse, home studio, cabin, spa enclosure or gazebo. What's important is, you want something unique, but original designs can be expensive. Now you've also talked things over with your banker and can't spend a bomb. Here's an idea.

The do-it-yourselfer's ultimate Web site makes designing your dream outdoor structure simple. Try the new Custom Design Center at Summerwood.com. If you can drag and drop with your mouse, you can be your own design architect. Really.

Let's say you're building a cabin. You select one from an array of styles then customize it with scores of design options -- doors, windows, shutters, cupolas, etcetera. There's an infinite amount of choice, so customize until you realize your vision. Then have your cabin delivered free in an easy-to-assemble kit. It's excellent value.

What if you think you know what you want but need inspiration? Take online 3D tours of sheds and pool houses and other Summerwood structures. They feature decorating ideas and important interior structural details. Speaking of details, there's always help available -- like the site's Ask an Expert Forum. It links you directly to Summerwood's key specialists in design, contracting, sales, etcetera.

Once you've designed your building, order your kit and be your own contractor. Get a few friends to help. Make it a
family building party. Available pre-cut or pre-assembled, the kits even come with a breakdown of labor hours. The truly keen can even purchase the building plans alone for just $49. And that's a lot of savings. These guys have thought of it all.
