This relies on if you own it and intend to stay there til you croak.
If you intend to retire and die there, go brick, mortar and wood and be done with it for life.
It is easier than most think. Just make Stacks of your bricks and when you lay them out you get the idea: Oh, Ok, I just stack Bricks on top of Bricks and Put the Wood on Top to make: Benches, Sofas, Chairs, Tables, Ovens, Smokestacks, etc etc etc.
Now and then you pour Concrete to Secure those bricks don't 'blow away or topple'. [Especially in Kansas or Arkasas where Tornado Activity is High you do not want the bricks blowing away]
If you do not intend to abide permanently, or Rent, though, then you never construct Permanency like Brick & Stone either, as you sure ain't gonna pack up a 3 Ton Furniture in your moving van, so in those instances you go Aluminum rather than Brick as it is easier to pack up Aluminum in a Van than Steel or Brick in a Moving Vandalism, instead that assuredly breaks your back.
Sheet Aluminum is Relatively Cheap and like Flashing it endures, takes paint, is easy to work with and often: Comes premade in All the Shapes ad Sizes you need for your project, to extents: All you need to do is determine
A. The design
B. How the available components make that design.
C.1 if you want to use Nuts and Bolts to Together them for an easier disassembly later than with an Epoxy or even Superglue
And
C.2 drill holes with eyewear if you decide on nuts and bolts (definitely recommended).
Everything else is mostly straightforward, to make cylinders you either buy pipe, or make Spirals from Sheet Aluminum and either Spot Solder those or Superglue those into that same shape.
