Arbors

Arbors are smaller in stature as compared to a pergola, but look and function in a similar fashion. Functionally arbors can provide shade, anchor paths and gateways and provide a structural element to use in vertical plantings. Ascetically, a pleasing arbor design helps move the flow of guests around your yard, pulling the eye down a space for more visual interest.

Popular Design Considerations:

  • Location: Grand entrance, destination or private garden nook

  • Scale: Quiet and unassuming that welcomes guests into your yard…or larger in stature to become a vertical design point to visually build around

  • Custom Features: Arches, climbing plants, birdhouses

  • Materials: Pressure treated wood design can be either painted or stained. Other designs options include low-maintenance white vinyl
