Serving Westchester, the Hamptons & Greater New York

Your Patio Has the Bones.
We Give It the Architecture.

You've invested in the backyard — pool, outdoor kitchen, stone fireplace — but no shade, no privacy, and no reason to stay outside past noon. We change that.

Before After
The Problem

A $200K Backyard No One Could Use After Noon

This New York homeowner invested heavily in their outdoor space — bluestone patio, custom pool, outdoor kitchen, stone fireplace. But without a shade solution, the space was unusable in direct sun. Furniture sat under tarps. The patio felt barren.

  • Full sun exposure made the patio unbearable by midday
  • Premium furniture needed constant covering and protection
  • No defined outdoor living zones — just open concrete
  • A backyard that looked unfinished despite the investment
Before: Exposed patio with covered furniture
Our Process

Designed in 3D. Built to Last Generations.

Every Breslow project starts with a custom 3D rendering — so you see exactly what your space will become before a single post goes in the ground.

Year-Round Outdoor Living

Build a Fully Integrated & Seamless Outdoor Space

Concealed motorized shades to block driving winds. Infrared heaters to trap the heat. Open the louvers with fans to keep your space cool. Every element is engineered into the structure — nothing bolted on, nothing exposed.

Winter

Close the louvers, drop the shades, and turn on the infrared heaters. Your outdoor room stays warm even in freezing temps.

Summer

Open the louvers for airflow, turn on the ceiling fans, and enjoy full shade without blocking the breeze.

🌧
Rain & Wind

Louvers auto-close in under 30 seconds. Motorized shades drop to block wind. Internal drainage keeps everything dry.

Custom Privacy Walls

IPE Hardwood Screens, Built to Your Exact Spec

Every Breslow pergola includes custom-designed IPE hardwood privacy walls — hand-built to match your home's architecture and your lifestyle. These aren't off-the-shelf panels. Each screen is engineered for your specific installation.

  • Premium IPE hardwood — rated 25+ year outdoor lifespan
  • Custom spacing and angle for light control and airflow
  • Integrated into the pergola's structural posts
  • Finished to match Azek-wrapped columns for a seamless look
