Favorite Outdoor Gathering Place

Overview

It’s hard to think about the Pacific Northwest without picturing trees, lots of trees. But for this home, with a grassy backyard and a new in-ground swimming pool in an established Spokane, Washington neighborhood, there was a lack of shade from any source. The homeowners liked the idea of a pergola and began researching possibilities. They were surprised at how few pergola options met their quality expectations. Also, since they wanted a product that would not completely block out the sun throughout the year, particularly during chillier months, the choices reduced even further, until they found one product that met all their requirements: Pergola X by StruXure. It was not only a sturdy and sustainable product, but its interlocking pivoting louver design with a patented 360 gutter system would give them control over sun and shade and even rain. Once their pergola was in place, their outdoor space became their primary gathering “room” from morning until night. Whether enjoying breakfast al fresco, practicing guitar riffs outdoors in the afternoon, or entertaining at night, family life under their pergola has been a dream come true.
