2. Double Pergolas: Expanding Outdoor Living

Connect the two pergolas to create a more expansive space. This design maximizes shade while defining areas for dining and relaxing. Our solar panels are discreetly integrated into the roof to ensure an uninterrupted power supply. Ideal for large families or entertaining, this setup can adapt to the changing sunlight throughout the day!

3. Wall-Mounted Pergolas: Space-Saving Elegance

Perfect for homes, garages, or on any ruggedized structure, wall-mounted pergolas extend indoor views to the outdoors. The pergola is anchored to the wall on one side and supported by columns on the other. Provides architectural aesthetics while offering shade, and provides lighting and a fan through our solar power supply.

4. Corner-Fixed Pergolas: Optimizing Awkward Spaces

Transform unused corners into cozy nooks with a corner-fixed pergola. Its triangular design fits snugly against walls, while adjustable solar awnings provide flexible shade. Use this space for reading corners or plant displays, powered by hidden solar tech.

5. Ceiling-Mounted Pergolas: Overhead Innovation

The Ceiling-Mounted Pergola is an optimized choice for restaurant and commercial spaces. It does not require any changes to the ground or the main body of the building, but can also cleverly expand the dining area through the outward extension of the structure, creating more seating capacity and profitability for the operator. It guarantees structural stability and preserves the original appearance of the site, realizing both functional expansion and spatial aesthetics.

6. Between-House Pergolas: Bridging Indoor & Outdoor

Connect two buildings with a solar pergola to create a transitional outdoor lobby. The structure provides lighting through solar energy while its open design maintains air circulation. This design is both functional and elegant, making it ideal for a hotel or pool area.
