How We Met the Brief

Referred by a trusted partner, this project required a freestanding white pergola to complement a newly designed outdoor kitchen. The client wanted a bright and modern structure that would provide both shade and comfort while enhancing the minimalist aesthetic of the space.

We selected a white aluminium pergola for maximum light reflection and a sense of openness. Integrated louvre lighting allows the area to be used late into the evening, while the infrared heater ensures the kitchen and dining space remain comfortable year-round.

The rain sensor provides convenience and protection, automatically adjusting the louvres to suit changing conditions.

The Result

The completed pergola provides a crisp, functional, and timeless addition to the property — a perfect setting for alfresco cooking and dining that can be enjoyed in any season.
