Where should you position the pergola in your garden? Practical tips for a perfect oasis
Whether for relaxing, outdoor dining or creating a peaceful corner, the pergola’s position in the garden plays a key role.
Each space is unique, with specific characteristics such as sun exposure, size and function. So here are some practical tips for finding the ideal location considering the various factors that contribute to enhancing the garden, ensuring comfort and functionality.
A garden that follows the sun
A first factor to consider is exposure to the sun. A pergola positioned in an area that’s too exposed to the sun's rays may become excessively hot during the day, while an area that’s too shady might not offer the desired brightness.
A good compromise is an area that receives direct sunlight during the morning or late afternoon hours, leaving the area pleasantly shaded during the middle hours of the day.
Imagine being able to control light, shade and ventilation by simply adjusting the blades of your pergola: Maestro was designed for those who wish to combine innovation and unmistakable style. Maestro's main configuration is freestanding, with an aluminium structure that integrates perfectly with any setting.
For those with a large garden, several Maestro modules can be daisy-chained, creating a continuous cover without doubling the joining pillars.
For example, in this project several Maestro modules were installed to form a social area in the centre of the green space, ideal for hosting friends and family.
But in this more urban setting, the Palladia Pergotenda® is mounted on the wall to make the most of the available space and create perfect continuity between the inside and outside of the home.
Make the most of every metre of outdoor space
The size of the garden or terrace also plays a crucial role. In larger spaces it’s possible to position the pergola as an island in the middle of the garden, creating a social space, or to create a true outdoor living room on the terrace.
In this project, Imago® was used to transform a rooftop terrace into a slice of heaven. Its clean, minimalist lines merge with the horizon, creating a functional, evocative space. Its innovative design makes it possible to create intimate and cosy spaces, ideal for relaxing or spending evenings under the stars.
In a large garden it’s possible to create a true outdoor living room. For example, Imago® can be placed right next to the house, becoming a focal point and a social area to be enjoyed to the fullest.
