Case study

Brief and response

Brief

Replace the older pergola on the same footprint while coordinating a contemporary frame with the Tuscan-style home.

Response

We set out a new 8 m by 5 m cover at 3 m height, using opal acrylic roofing over the courtyard. The 5 degree hip roof retains the established footprint.
