What kind of a pergola do you want to have? Do you want a cover to your deck or patio, a new structure to house a hot tub, or possibly an arbor that will function as a gateway into your garden? Anything is possible with these types of versatile structures. It doesn’t matter whether you decide a simple style having wooden posts or perhaps a stylish structure with flipped posts, it is going to add height as well as interest to the area where you build it. Pergola designs vary from open roofs which are best for looking up at the stars to those with retractable canopies that keep out the elements. It’s no wonder they’ve become so popular!
The choice of decorative columns plays an important role in determining the overall look of the pergola, therefore, it’s important that you specifically focus on choosing the right columns. Larger columns will give your pergola a spacious, stately look, but it’s important to make sure they are proportional to the size of pergola and don’t obscure the other design elements. Experts recommend keeping the size between twelve to eighteen inches in diameter.
While many of us have patiently waited through the dark winter months for these all too few warm and sunny days, we do sometimes need a place to escape the sun’s scorching heat and harmful rays. However, we do want to make the most of the season so why not stay outdoors in the cooling shade of a pergola? With simple pergola ideas, we can still enjoy the sun and have just enough shade to keep us cool and to keep us from being burnt by the sun.
