Pergola Design is becoming a common feature on most Indian home exteriors. Once called a patio roof, a pergola finds its purpose in several spaces to create a hospitable atmosphere. Pergola Design is affordable compared to gazebos and pavilions and can be easily detached and attached to the home as per convenience. Apart from providing shade from the sun and wind, pergolas give new meaning to terrace landscaping and garden design. Pergola Design may be free-standing or attached to the home and may be covered or left open. Let us look at a few mesmerising Pergola Design inspirations that can enhance your outdoor experience.

This necessitated that the compound wall of the building, along the length of the forest reserve, be taller, at least 8 to 9 feet in height.

A certain kind of cavernous space which is washed by light from the sky to create a somber, yet cheerful, atmosphere. Once this spatial quality was identified and discovered, the intention of the project was to enhance this spatial quality through careful and minimal spatial articulation.
