Enhance Your Outdoor Space with an Aria Pergola

Sergio Mota • August 18, 2023
Summer is here, and you're probably spending more time enjoying the outdoors. But what if you could create a beautiful and functional outdoor space that could be used year-round? Aria Pergola may be your perfect solution! Aria Pergola is an innovative outdoor structure that provides more than just shade. It is designed to last for the life of your home and can be built to any shape and size, offering you endless possibilities for outdoor living. In this post, we will explore the benefits of an Aria Pergola and how it can enhance your outdoor living space.

Aria Pergola offers many features that make it stand out from traditional outdoor structures. One of the main benefits is its open roof design. Unlike traditional solid roofs, an Aria Pergola creates an open and airy space, giving you a more natural outdoor experience. With an open roof, you can enjoy the beautiful blue sky, trees, and stars above while still being protected from the sun.


Another feature that makes Aria Pergola unique is the thinner metal system. The metal system is made of all extruded aluminum, providing a strong and durable structure. With the thinner metal system, the structure looks elegant and streamlined. Additionally, a powder coat finish protects the metal and gives it a sleek look that will not fade or peel over time.


Beyond its aesthetic qualities, an Aria Pergola is designed to provide shade. The 2-inch-wide shade lattice tubes provide between 60% and 10% shade, depending on the spacing between the tubes. You can customize the spacing to create the perfect amount of shade for your outdoor space. This feature is especially beneficial if you live in a hot climate because it cuts down on the heat and promotes a more comfortable outdoor environment.


One of the most attractive features of an Aria Pergola is its versatility. It can be built to any shape and size, even round, to fit the unique needs and style of your home. Whether you have a large backyard or a small patio, an Aria Pergola can be customized to fit perfectly. Additionally, you can add features like outdoor curtains, ceiling fans, and lighting to enhance your outdoor ambiance.


With an Aria Pergola, you can create a personalized and comfortable outdoor living area that you can enjoy for years to come. Contact us today to start building your perfect Aria Pergola.
