Perhaps you would like a patio setting actually built as a square. Have bench seating almost all the way around, except for a couple of opening entrances. You could have lots of cushions for comfort, a fire pit in the center, and tiki torches and fairy lights. ☺️

do you want to make a deck or furniture?
SAFETY FIRST. CHECK WITH MUNICIPAL OFFICES. MAY NEED BUILDING PERMIT. MAY HAVE RULES ABOUT HEIGHT/RAILINGS, FOOTINGS, FREE STANDING ETC. LUMBER STORES MAY GIVE YOU COMPUTER GENERATED PRINT OUT INCLUDING SUGGESTED LIST OF MATERIALS. USE ONLY SCREWS
OR CONNECTORS DESIGNED FOR PRESSURE TREATED WOOD AND OUT DOOR PROJECTS. CHOOSE STAINLESS STEAL OVER PLATED CONNECTORS.
ALSO CHOOSE FINISHED SIZE THAT LETS YOU AVOID EXCESSIVE SAWING AND WASTE PIECES. INSTALL QUALITY SKIRT TO 'SKUNK PROOF' OR FOR
SECURE STORAGE IF UNDER SPACE IS USABLE.
