An outdoor space with a clear purpose
The pergola gives the seating area its own outline within the wider garden. The dark frame and boundary create a backdrop for the light-coloured sofas, while the open side maintains a connection to the lawn.
Furniture is central to the composition. Seats face into a shared space, with room to move around them and continue towards the dining area beyond. When planning an outdoor lounge, the furniture arrangement is worth deciding early.
Thinking about the whole setting
Feature lighting introduces colour beneath the slats and helps define the structure. It is one of the visible details in this finished space, alongside the paving and planting around it.
If you are considering a similar scheme, we can discuss the landscaping, base and layout as part of the quote. Pergola specifications, any permissions and electrical installation requirements should be agreed for the individual project with the appropriate specialists.
