Garden houses

==History==
The ancient Egyptians, Greeks and Romans used to build villas with extended gardens and parks in which they set small mansions and pavilions for open-air festivities and receptions.\nAt that time, hospitality towards one's guests was a sacred duty and people therefore made these external 'spare-rooms' as cosy and inviting as possible. They also protected guests from the glaring sun and secret trysts from prying eyes.\nIn ancient China and India, such open-air shelters were also very common, especially among the higher castes.\nDuring the Renaissance, European nobility rediscovered such ancient garden decoration techniques and regularly held extravagant parties in their private gardens. The gardens of most Baroque and Renaissance castles also possess such airy summer buildings.\n
==Did You Know That?==
It 1912, every self-respecting family not only owned their own house and garden, but also elegant garden pavilions suitable for bourgeois gatherings. \nHaving a garden pavilion made from wood made people feel like they were living in the country - even if they happened to living in the suburbs of a fast-growing city.
