This client from the Lanaudière region contacted us to create a personalized design that would meet all of these needs. He wanted to have a patio with a pergola that would connect the house to the existing swimming pool. In addition, the layout had to allow for the integration of a dining area, a space sheltered from the wind for the barbecue and a cabin. It was also necessary to provide storage space.
So we designed a single level patio that would bring all the areas together to create a whole. It is made of TimberTech composite, a maintenance-free material. At the exit of the house, We have placed the dining area. Close to the kitchen, it is the ideal place to facilitate service. Right next door, the barbecue is leaned against a wall to cut the wind. We attached a composite bar to have a work surface while chatting with guests.
A large, untreated hemlock timberframe pergola shelters these two sections. It is divided into two sections: one with a retractable awning and the other without. This awning allows occupants to eat in the shade if they wish.
Next, the wall behind the barbecue serves a dual purpose. It also acts as one of the cabin's partitions. This small space at the end of the pergola is very practical. It eliminates the need to go back and forth into the house to change after getting out of the pool. In addition, it provides privacy from the neighbors on either side.
The pool deck is at the same level, so it's simply bordered by 48-inch railings. The glass railings allow for an unobstructed view of the pool, making it easier to supervise children. This is the Murano model from Aluminium Distinction. The other sides have standard baluster railings.
Finally, we concealed storage in the skirt under the patio. It's made of Sansin Onyx Black stained Western Red Cedar, just like the cabin walls. The storage space is accessible through a double door on the side. So, you could say it's a beautiful integration of several needs that create a cohesive look for this patio with a pergola.
