Here's A Shady Deal

Things Are Looking Up

An architect friend of mine once explained to me that the wooden slats on patios and outdoor entertaining areas aren't just placed in a random pattern. He showed me how the slats are placed at specific angles, depending on the alignment of the patio or deck area. Ever since I assimilated his wisdom, I have always paid close attention to these wooden structures. This one intrigued me, especially because of the light and shade and its sheer geometric precision.
