We reckon there are at least two must haves if you love relaxing and entertaining around your Brisbane home – a pool to cool off and a Brisbane pergola to provide protection from the elements.
Outside Concepts can’t help you with the pool, but we certainly can provide all the know-how, advice and expertise to make your Brisbane pergola dream a reality. Which is exactly what we did for this lucky family in the Brisbane suburb of Kenmore. They had a beautiful pool and indeed a spa to enjoy all year round, but they were certainly lacking when it came to protection from the elements.
Brisbane pergola project meet the family’s needs
The family’s situation demonstrates that when it comes to pergolas (and indeed other outside structures), it’s vital that a customised solution is provided, rather than a one size fits all solution. A solution that perfectly fits the individual’s needs and wants.
In this family’s case, one pergola simply wasn’t going to meet the requirements. They wanted the spa to be covered, so they could enjoy it while being protected from the elements. But they also wanted a pergola to house their pool-side furniture and to provide relaxation and entertainment opportunities around the pool. Due to lack of space around the spa, the decision was made to erect a second pergola nearby, perfectly matching the one over the spa.
Both of the pergolas were planned with their location in mind, so the design reflects the tropical feel of the area. The relatively inexpensive pergola structures were built using beautiful hardwood timber and were topped off with Colorbond roofing.
The result is not one Brisbane pergola but two, to meet the needs of the family perfectly!
But what exactly is a pergola? Pergolas are a beautiful outdoor addition to any Brisbane home. They are built to provide shade in sunny areas. They are one of the most multi-functional structure that can be built in homes to provide protection from the sun’s harmful UV rays. A Pergola not only transforms the appearance of any backyard but also adds functionality. If you’ve been looking to make your home one of a kind, a pergola is a sure way to add an elegant touch to any Brisbane outdoor space.
Floras and Pergolas
Whenever we see a photograph of a picture-perfect backyard, there would always be pergola that has a beautiful greenery wrapped around their legs and lattices. But that doesn’t only have to exist in pictures. Pergolas are built with vertical posts or pillars that are supported by cross-beams and a sturdy open lattice. This provides the perfect place to spot woody vines. Gardens over a hundred years old often showcase pergolas that have these woody vines, and some even have colourful flowers planted on top. You can take these ideas to make your pergolas stand out!
Pergola Style and Function
When you search for “Pergolas” on the Internet, it will show you the numerous uses and materials it can be built with. You are not only limited to wood; a pergola can be created with any number of materials that are durable, attractive, and affordable. A Pergola is a beautiful garden structure that can provide shade from the sun during the day and a nice cool place to relax with your friends and family during the night.
Maybe you don’t want a huge addition to your house. Maybe you don’t need an entire outdoor room. Maybe you just need a place to sit and unwind for a little while. Pergolas are the thing just for you.
