Freestanding Cantilever Pergola with Garapa Hardwood Strips

This freestanding pergola combines a contemporary aluminium frame with the natural warmth of Garapa hardwood strips. The cantilever design allows the overhead structure to extend beyond its supports, creating an open feel with fewer posts interrupting the space beneath. The timber strips provide filtered shade while allowing light and airflow through.

Garapa is a dense South American hardwood recognised for its golden-brown colour, durability and natural resistance to decay. It adds warmth and texture to the aluminium structure, creating an inviting setting for outdoor dining and relaxation.

The Garapa can be maintained with a suitable exterior timber oil to help retain its golden tones or left to weather naturally to a silver-grey finish
