6 Ways to Make Use of a Small Space with a Pergola

Outdoor space shockingly small? Many homeowners are unable to change the sizing or layout of their outdoor area. Rest assured, this doesn’t have to stop you from achieving a winning outdoor living space design. Even the tiniest backyard can feel airy and expansive with the careful integration of the right outdoor accouterments.

Pint-Sized Patio? Make the Most of Your Outdoor Space with These Tips:
        Stay on the Lighter Side of Things
Light, brightly colored patio color palettes help small outdoor spaces feel airy and bright, and larger than they actually are.
        Protect Yourself, Yet Maintain an Unobstructed, Airy Feel
Ensure the reliable rain and sun protection you need, while still maintaining an open, airy feel with the addition of an adjustable aluminum pergola. Open up to expansive views in the beautiful Denver weather with a full 170-degrees of rotation, dialing your way to comfort on-demand via remote control, pre-program settings with our newest, iLouver smartphone app, or integrate wind and rain sensors for the ultimate in weather-responsive convenience.
        Go BIG or Small
Though small furniture selections, such as an elegant 2-chair bistro set, can help you retain a feeling of space, another trick to achieving the feel of a larger space is to go large with furnishings. Though this may seem contrary, squeezing the largest outdoor sofa or sectional possible into your tiny terrace can help you effectively make the most of space when paired with inviting accouterments. 


 
        Opt for Ottomans
Add cushy ottomans, in lieu of more traditional outdoor furnishings, to keep space open and allow for more easily moveable, flexible seating arrangements.

        Let it All Hang Out
Egg-shaped hanging chairs, also available on stands, are a great way to make an attention-getting statement, yet keep patio or porch square footage clear, offering an irresistibly cozy-looking place to curl up with a book.



 
        Bring Narrow Concrete Spaces to Life with a Living Wall
Small, skinny spaces like rooftop terraces and side patios can greatly benefit from the greenery of vines or wall-mounted planters. Placing them atop each other can add a bright, green, earthy feel to even the dullest outdoor space. Pair with a hammock or smaller swinging chair for a dreamy, garden-like destination, or divide into sub-spaces with screens or medium-sized plants to give the feel of a wider, less hallway-like space.
