Project overview
Spending time relaxing in the sun overlooking the picturesque Intercoastal Waterway in Pompano Beach, Florida is a dream vacation for many. For these homeowners, the dream is an everyday reality thanks to their new custom pergola. Nestled alongside a mecca of boat sports, SYZYGY Global, designed a gorgeous adjustable louvered roof pergola that soars above the single-story this home features a beautiful patio complete with outdoor kitchen, outdoor seating and an outdoor television mounted on the wall. To provide protection from the constant sun and regular afternoon showers, Azenco partner, home’s roofline to create a spacious outdoor living space styled in ting and water classic black and white tuxedo colors.
Custom Pergola Design Challenge
The small, yet picturesque backyard patio would truly benefit from the addition of an Azenco R-Blade custom pergola. With its motorized louvers, the homeowners could adjust the sun/shade balance at the push of a button, or close the roof completely to block out the afternoon rain showers. Though a small space, this patio project posed a few challenges for the SYZYGY Global designers. Experts in custom pergolas, the SYZYGY Global design team turned the challenges into unique customizations for this pergola to help elevate its design even further.
First, the patio was confined by two sides of the home’s exterior, and on the third side by a stem wall that blocked the view of the neighboring home and provided a barrier between the patio and the pool’s mechanicals. The SYZYGY Global designers turn this walled-in challenge into an advantage by mounting the pergola frame on top of the flat-roofed home and the stem wall. This design meant there would be no footings required to support the pergola, and ensured the open side of the patio left unobstructed views of the Intercoastal Waterway and adjacent pool.
Eliminating the footings and support columns solved one challenge, but created another. With the pergola frame mounted directly to the roof line, the outdoor space would have felt too confined. So, the SYZYGY Global team added risers to elevate the pergola frame above the low roof line. With these risers installed, the pergola roof now soars to 10′-6″, which instills a spacious loft-like feeling to the patio.
SYZYGY Global customized a super gutter that intuitively collected all the rain water running off the flat roof of the home and channeled it into the R-Blade’s hidden gutter system, discharging excess water into a garden space outside the stem wall.
Color Selection
With the existing home exterior clad in a classic South Florida all-white style, the SYZYGY Global team saw the addition of the pergola as an opportunity to add a stylish accent to the patio area. To bring a splash of accent color to the patio roof, SYZYGY Global crafted the pergola’s louvers in matching all-white, and the pergola frame and risers in black. This classic tuxedo colorway offers a modernist look with the timelessness of a perfectly tailored tuxedo. With the risers set in black, the pergola also created an architectural accent that elevates the entire space.
