Dragon Pergola: Your Backyard Oriental Asian Style

To Western America, the Orient holds a mystique charm of a far-away place. Chinoiserie is the love to imitate Chinese and Asian designs and culture in architecture, furniture, landscaping, and art. To the Europeans, chinoiserie was the most coveted fashion of the 17th and 18th-century aristocracy. Today, the fascination with the Asian cultures and centuries-old traditions is alive and well, integrated into American Architecture, Furniture, Landscaping, and Art.

Showcased today is a ShadeScape™ Asian Style pergola with carved dragon heads. The pergola featured a swing and was finished in a custom reddish stain.

There are many ways to add a mystical and creative touch to a yard. For a ShadeScape™ that can be just a hint of the Orient like as shown on the left with a custom rafter end profile or the trellised Contemporary Style on the right.

It also can be Oriental Style on grander-scale, exotic dimensions with timeless Asian garden beauty as displayed in these ShadeScape™ pictures or Oriental Style Pergola plans.

If you would like to immerse yourself in the Chinoiserie experience every day, consider a ShadeScape™ with an Asian or Oriental flair for your next project.
