Profile:  Tea Room

The Tea Room is the choice for those looking to combine solid design with maximum versatility and flexibility.

The Tea Room's pyramid-shaped roof has eaves on all four sides, offering superior protection against sun, wind and rainy weather. And the ivory "skylight" at the apex of the roof admits a warm glow from above, filling the Tea Room with soft light.

With the addition of optional fabric and screen walls, the Tea Room transforms into a highly responsive, multi-season structure that can go from airy "cabana" to screened in "lanai" to cozy wind- and waterproof "cabin" — all without tools, and all in just a few minutes.

The four supporting posts of the Tea Room are located in the very corners of the structure, making the entire 10' x 10' deck of the Tea Room into usable "internal space." At 100 square feet, this generous interior also provides plenty of room for a variety of furnishings — guest beds, a massage table, sofas and chairs.

The standard deck on a 10' x 10' Tea Room is made with Douglas fir floor boards, which can be readily stained in your choice of custom colors. Custom decks can also include pop-up Kotatsu Tables, cantilevered extensions and porches, or high-quality redwood floor boards.

Fabric walls and screens likewise come in a range of configurations:  plain/solid, with zippered entrances, with round "Moon Windows" made of clear vinyl, and with a combination of features. Walls and screens can go on any side of a Tea Room, are available in a range of custom colors, and can be easily opened, closed, rolled up or rolled down in response to the changes in wind, sun, temperature or time of day.
