Blinds and Shutters Around a Baltic Pergola

Halswell, Christchurch
Baltic Motorised Freestanding Pergola · 4 × 3m

3 Retractable Blinds · 2 Custom Shutter Walls
Bruce’s 4 × 3m Baltic was installed on the timber deck beside the house, with three retractable blinds and two custom shutter walls added around the sides.

The blinds can be lowered when more screening is wanted, while still allowing light through the fabric. The shutter walls can also be opened or closed, giving another option on the sides closer to the house.
The two types of screening look quite different. The blinds are lighter and more transparent, while the shutters give those sections a more solid finish.
The dark shutters also work well with the pergola frame and the existing brick exterior.
With the louvred roof above and adjustable screening around the sides, this setup can be opened up or closed down in several ways.
