Why Are Modern Pergolas So Popular?

Why Are Modern Pergolas So Popular? The Oliver\\\'s MadhouseIf you are anything like me, spending time in the garden or simply outdoors is a must (at least when the weather starts getting warmer). I love sitting outside in my sun lounger reading a book, enjoying a refreshing drink whilst the kids are exploring the garden for bugs or playing in the paddling pool. 

However, I wish I could enjoy my outdoors more than just a few weeks every year. Of course, that’s up to the weather or so I thought. What if I told you that a modern pergola can help you make the most out of your garden all-year-round and even enjoy it when it’s raining?

Designer Shade Solutions retractable roofs in Sydney Australia have been growing in popularity across the globe and I can see why! Their retractable roofs are modern pergolas that feature a retractable and tilting roof – this unique function allows you to be outdoors no matter the weather. The roof can be easily closed if it starts to rain, can be opened to fully enjoy the sun or for some shade, it can be tilted. This is something you can’t get from traditional pergolas.Why Are Modern Pergolas So Popular? The Oliver\\\'s Madhouse

Even though traditional pergolas are stunning, they are simply not practical enough. As Sparkles and Stretchmarks says, “traditional pergolas are not great for British homes, but these modern pergolas definitely are!” And I couldn’t agree more. These modern pergolas perfectly balance style and function, being perfect for any home!

Modern pergolas not only allow you to enjoy your outdoor space all year round but also add extra privacy to your garden and boost your home’s value. Better Homes and Gardens also mentions that

“pergolas can be great for breaking up a space, creating a secondary seating area or resting place when meandering through a garden, defining different zones in an outdoor area, and also creating visual interest to draw the eye too.

As Luxirare asks in this recent blog post, “Wouldn’t you enjoy being outside no matter if the sun is shining or if it rains?” And the answer is yes! These modern pergolas can be installed in the middle of your outdoor space or attached to your home to create a seamless transition from indoor living to outdoor living.

And that’s not all – these modern pergolas can be combined with side screens, heating and lighting to create the perfect outdoor room. As this article on Houzz says, “outdoor rooms integrate the comfort and style of the inside of the house with the beauty of the great outdoors.” With these pergolas, you can create the most wonderful outdoor space to enjoy during summer, autumn, winter and spring!

What do you think of these modern pergolas?
