Baltic Pergola by the Pool and Tennis Court

Cambridge, Waikato

Baltic Freestanding Manual Pergola · 4 × 4m

We installed this 4 × 4m Baltic between the swimming pool and tennis court at Brenda’s property in Cambridge.
The location is quite different from a pergola built against the house. The pool sits on one side, the tennis court on the other, and the pergola uses the paved area between them.

From underneath, the tennis court is directly ahead. Turn the other way and the pool and house are behind you. The 4 × 4m size works well here because it gives this part of the property proper cover without taking over the surrounding space.
The Baltic is freestanding, with all four posts fixed to the concrete pad. Nothing needs to connect back to the house, pool fence or court.

The manual louvres can be opened or closed depending on the sun, while all four sides stay open.
It’s a simple setup, but the placement is what makes it work.
