Choosing Pergolas designs can be a big decision and there are several things to think about.

Below is a short list to help you on your way to getting your dream pergola built.

1. How much space do you have? Ideally you want the pergola to be proportionate to

the size of your home and garden, think about whether you want the pergola to be

attached, creating an indoor / outdoor area or would you prefer a freestanding pergola?

2. Shape. Pergolas come in a wide variety of shapes; square, rectangular, hexagonal and

circular pergolas are available.

3. Roof design is a very important consideration; do you want curved, gabled, and

pitched or a flat pergola roof. Remember to consider the times of year and the weather

your pergola will experience, try to fit your roof design around those environmental

factors as well as aesthetics.

4. Materials and Decorations. Different materials for your pergola are available

depending on your needs. Do you want the pergola to match your house, or are you

creating a free standing space with its own design? Co-ordinating your pergola design

with furnishings you know you will be using is also a good consideration.
