Gable Patio

Classic style, superior ventilation, and built for Australian conditions. Enhance your home with a gable patio, a timeless outdoor structure that delivers excellent airflow, increased ceiling height, and a striking architectural finish. At By Design Outdoor Projects, we design and build custom gable patios that seamlessly integrate with your home while standing up to Australia’s harsh climate.

Whether you’re entertaining guests or creating a shaded family retreat, a gable patio offers the perfect balance of form and function.

What Is a Gable Patio?

A gable patio features a pitched roof with two sloping sides that meet at a central ridge. This design allows hot air to rise and escape, making it one of the most comfortable roofing options for outdoor living—especially during warmer months.


Compared to flat or skillion roofs, gable patios provide:

  • • Improved natural ventilation
  • • Greater sense of space and ceiling height
  • • Strong visual appeal and street presence
