Summer Terrace — modern outdoor pavilion with a cantilevered wood-slat roof growing around pine tree trunks

Summer Terrace

Tucked into a pine forest, this modern outdoor pavilion pairs a cantilevered wood-slat roof with board-formed concrete walls and a built-in concrete dining table and benches. A continuous LED light strip washes the interior in shifting color, while an integrated stainless sink makes the space equally suited to entertaining or quiet outdoor meals.

Anchored by mature pine trees growing straight through the open-air structure, the pavilion blends architecture and landscape, offering year-round outdoor living space just steps from the main house.
