How To Style Your Aluminium Pergola

Pergolas are a fantastic addition to any outdoor space. They not only provide shade and protection from the sun but also add style and character to your backyard. If you have a pergola or are considering adding one to your home, you may be wondering how to style it to make it a focal point of your outdoor living area. In this article, we will explore different ways to add style to your pergola and create a beautiful and inviting space for you and your family to enjoy.

Incorporate Climbing Plants 

One of the easiest and most effective ways to add style to your aluminium pergola is by incorporating climbing plants. Whether it's ivy, wisteria, or jasmine, these plants can add a touch of natural beauty and create a lush and green canopy over your pergola. Not only will they provide shade, but they will also add tranquillity and peace to your outdoor space. Be sure to choose plants that are suitable for your climate and that can thrive in all conditions.

Bring Your Pergola Closer To Your Home 

Our aluminium pergolas are beautiful ways to combine your home and your garden. Placing it close to a back door will create a smooth and seamless connection, which makes it the perfect spot for entertaining guests. 

Pergolas do not need planning permission either, so they are very easy to install. Adding our rattan garden furniture sets will help create a comfortable space, which is ideal for social events. Or, adding our fire pits brings plenty of heat, perfect for those cold winter months. 

Hang Outdoor Curtains 

Another way to add style and elegance to your pergola is by hanging outdoor curtains. These curtains can create a sense of privacy and intimacy while also adding a touch of luxury to your outdoor space. Choose curtains in a colour or pattern that complements your existing decor and furniture. You can also opt for sheer curtains to allow for a soft and romantic ambience. Don't forget to choose curtains that are made from weather-resistant materials to withstand the elements.

Install Outdoor Lighting 

To create a cosy and inviting atmosphere in your pergola, consider installing outdoor lighting. Whether it's string lights, lanterns, or spotlights, lighting can transform your pergola into a magical space, especially in the evenings. You can choose warm white lights for a soft and romantic glow or go for colourful lights to create a festive and vibrant ambience. Lighting can not only add style but also extend the usability of your pergola into the night.

Bring in Outdoor Furniture

To make your pergola a comfortable space, be sure to incorporate outdoor furniture. Whether it's a dining set, fire pits or a cube set the right furniture can transform your pergola into an outdoor living room or dining area. Choose furniture that is weather-resistant and durable, so it can withstand the elements. You can also add cushions and throw pillows in vibrant colours and patterns to bring comfort and elegance to your garden. 

Add Decorative Elements

To add style to your pergola, why not add decorative elements? This can include hanging artwork, wind chimes, or even a small water feature. These elements can add visual interest and create a unique and personalised space. Just be sure not to overcrowd your pergola with too many decorations, as it can make the space feel cluttered and overwhelming.
