      All shade structures can be either free standing, attached to an existing structure, or in some cases, actually against the existing structure but not attached. This technique is often used with the lattice style shade structures where a higher "ceiling" is desired. The height of the lattice is actually above the roof-line of the existing structure. The "airy" effect created adds even more openness to your outdoor living areas.
