This project showcases how a bespoke pergola can transform an outdoor patio area into a year-round living space, perfectly suited to the aesthetic and functionality of a modern glass-fronted home.
The client’s modern home, with its glass frontage, faced challenges with solar gain, which made the interior uncomfortably warm at times. Additionally, they wanted to make their patio area functional for all seasons, balancing shade, warmth, and style.
Bespoke Design for Seamless Integration:
A B200XL pergola was chosen for its sleek and contemporary design. Finished in anthracite grey, it complemented the existing window and door frames, while the quartz grey louvres added a touch of contrast, subtly enhancing the property’s aesthetic.
Precise Installation:
We customised the pergola height to exactly 2.75m, ensuring it fit seamlessly without obstructing the patio doors, maintaining the flow between indoor and outdoor spaces.
Enhanced Usability with Integrated Features:
White LED louvre lights were installed to provide functional and stylish illumination, making the patio usable in the evenings. Frame-mounted heaters, colour-matched to the pergola, delivered warmth for cooler months, allowing the space to be enjoyed throughout the year.
This pergola not only solves practical challenges such as managing solar gain and providing shade but also enhances the home’s aesthetic. The rotating louvres allow the client to adjust sunlight and ventilation throughout the day, creating a comfortable outdoor retreat that blends style with functionality.
At Rase Outdoor Living, we specialise in complete outdoor transformations — from initial groundwork to bespoke pergola design and installation. We create spaces that are both beautiful and built to last.
