Pergola Design Tips

Pergola Design & Construction - 3 Things to Consider

Elevate your outdoor vibe with a beautifully designed pergola! From cozy hangouts to outdoor dinners, a pergola is your backyard's newest best friend - the perfect mix of sun, shade and serenity! See below for our top 3 things to consider when designing your dream pergola.

1.PLACEMENT

A pergola can either stand-alone or be attached to your home and is a great way to create different outdoor “rooms” or areas within your landscape. If you are looking to get the most shade as possible from your pergola, pay attention to where the light hits the space at different times of the day and consider that factor when deciding on placement to maximize the covered area.

2.DESIGN & CONSTRUCTION

Taking into consideration the overall use of the structure, placement and product choice, the construction options are plentiful.

Wood is the most common material used for pergolas because it’s easy to work with and can be cut and designed in a multitude of different ways. It can also be painted or stained in the perfect colour to compliment your home.

When it comes to the actual design of a pergola, again, the possibilities are nearly endless. From simple & classic, to intricate & detailed, Rundle Landscaping Ltd. will help you design a pergola that is right for you.

3.FOCAL POINT

Adding some shade, style and a whole lot of charm, a pergola can create a visually appealing focal point and bring an atmosphere of ambiance and outdoor luxury to any outdoor space.

For some extra interest, a lattice feature could be added to the pergola with some vines to provide additional colour and texture, or some outdoor lighting to take it to the next level.

Incorporating a pergola into your landscape design can provide a great space to enjoy beautiful sunny days and warm breezy nights.  Simply add a nice dining table, some comfy seating or a fire pit and you have a cozy outdoor "room" that’s perfect for gathering with friends and family -- Where relaxation meets design!
