From design to final installation this project felt and delivered Christmas card quality results!
The home owner really had an eye for the placement of the Pavilion and the results truly convey what "sitting by the fire" can mean in an outdoor living space.
This was the last project of the year and we were pushed up against time, daylight, and of course Indiana snow, but we were able to get it all completed and what a finish it delivered.
Involved in this is was a two color decorative concrete stamp in which were able to match the concrete colors and stamp that they already had existing around the pool deck to the new concrete. We were actually able to locate the contractor that originally poured the concrete for this house when it was built 12 years ago which was great as we were then able to get the exact colors to match - a very very rare thing but a great story nonetheless.
Now getting to the project.
What we did here was build a Western Red Cedar tongue and groove pavilion style cedar shake shingled, antique red brick, gas burning, 17' tall fireplace, with radial woodbox openings and a matching radial firebox opening to the fireplace.
We accented the pergola with painted white 8 x 8 rough cut cedar posts, copper caps, and decorative arches on the columns.
Some of these subtle nuances are often overlooked when you are outfitting a pergola, but collectively displayed can make something really "pop" in the outcome.
