How do you combine the coziness of your living room with fresh air and sunlight from your yard? 

Pergolas transport the comforts of an indoor environment to a more serene, natural setting. They provide style and shade for sunny afternoons, and add value to your property. Pergolas can be built in dozens of styles using all different materials to match your home or business.

Reasons to Install a Pergola

In the popular imagination, pergolas are often depicted as fanciful gazebos with trellis walls covered in climbing vines set amidst a fantasy-esque garden landscape — like San Francisco’s Walter S. Johnson Park. In reality, pergolas can be built to match just about any design style. 

Pergolas for Homes

If pergola sounds to you like a type of crinkled pasta smothered in pesto, that’s because the word itself is Italian in origin and its use stretches all the way back to classical times. Its romantic, dreamy sound perfectly captures the delight of lounging in a lush garden beneath a shaded awning as you’re lulled to sleep by the sound of the wind rustling through the trees. Slowly, your worries melt away as you become entranced by the radiating warmth of stray sunbeams and the fuzzy, listless delights of afternoon day dreams.

They’re also great for parties! Pergolas add comfort and class to mixers and outdoor dining. Their bespoke design enhances any outdoor space — turning your guests green with envy — while its overhanging roof offers cool shade on hot summer days. 

Pergolas are ideal for gardens, patios, outdoor kitchens, and gardens. They are constructed using premium materials like wood, vinyl, and metal, and come in a variety of styles; including classical, modern, rustic, and minimalist.

Pergolas for Commercial Spaces

In addition to residential applications, pergolas are also popular among businesses — especially customer facing establishments, like hotels, restaurants, and malls. And increasingly they’re becoming a common fixture at office buildings across America. Pergolas can add Old World luxury to a stylish Mediterranean restaurant, or enhance an office park with shaded outdoor space.
