A wooden pergola over an Anthem patio

This Anthem backyard had a good patio and no reason to sit on it. Between about ten and four, it was simply too much sun.

We designed and built a wooden pergola sized to the patio it covers, detailed to match the house rather than sit on top of it. Our pergola specialists handle the design and the build, so the structure is planned around how the space actually gets used: where the table goes, where the sun lands, where you want the light to come through.

Shade is what turns a patio from a surface into a room.
