The Copper Argument for the Gazebo

Copper belongs in the gazebo the way wisteria belongs on the column — not as a decorative addition but as a material that has always been part of the great romantic garden structures of the world.

Copper is the most romantic metal. The warm tone of copper — the color of the late afternoon sun, the color of the autumn garden, the color of the candlelight — makes the gazebo feel as romantic as the moments it houses. The copper panel in a gazebo is not just weather-resistant. It is romance-beautiful — the material that becomes most itself in the presence of the romantic outdoor moment.

Copper is weather-resistant. The gazebo is a fully exposed outdoor structure — the direct sun, the rain, the frost, the wind, the full outdoor exposure of the open-sided garden building. The UV-resistant, weather-resistant outdoor lacquer finish on Natuross outdoor copper panels resists the full outdoor exposure of the gazebo environment.

Copper develops a natural patina in the garden environment. The outdoor environment of the gazebo accelerates the natural patina development of copper — the surface becoming more beautiful over time, the installation aging with the garden structure it belongs to.

Copper is alive in the dappled light. The open-sided structure of the gazebo means the copper panel is experienced in the dappled light of the garden — the warm metal catching and reflecting the light through the open sides of the structure, the surface that makes the gazebo feel as atmospheric as the romantic moments it houses.


Back Panel Ideas

Gazebo Back Panel A copper panel at the back of the gazebo — the decorative surface that defines the character of the open-sided structure from within and from the garden.

The gazebo back panel is the most gazebo-specific copper installation in the catalog. The copper at the back of the gazebo — the surface seen from within the open-sided structure and from the garden beyond. A botanical composition — the vine, the wisteria, the rose — the climbing plants of the gazebo tradition rendered in copper. A romantic composition — the heart, the flower, the garden — the romantic tradition of the gazebo rendered in copper. A classical composition — the urn, the column, the architectural fragment — the classical gazebo tradition rendered in copper. The family name or the couple's names in copper letterforms — the gazebo named for the people it belongs to. A celestial composition — the moon, the stars — the gazebo as a room open to the sky. A simple hammered texture in a warm finish — the copper speaking through the material alone, the gazebo as a warm, considered surface that makes the open-sided structure feel as designed as the great gazebos of history.

"The wisteria back panel and the column wraps changed the entire gazebo. Every afternoon in the open-sided structure, every summer gathering beneath the roof, the copper makes the gazebo feel as considered as the great garden structures of history — the warm metal on the back panel, the hammered surface alive in the dappled light of the garden. The gazebo went from an open-sided structure in the garden to the most romantic room on the property. The copper made it a destination." — Natuross customer
