Light built into the louvers and beams, dimmable, zoned and on the same control as the roof. Bright over the table when you are eating, low around the edges when you are not.
Every one of these is planned with the structure — wired inside the frame, sized to your space, and controlled alongside the roof. That is the difference between an accessory and an afterthought.
Fixtures sit in the louvers and beams and are wired inside the frame. Nothing clipped on, no cable looping between posts.
Task light over the table and the cook line, perimeter light for the evening, each on its own zone.
Same control as the louvers and screens — scenes rather than switches, and it works from your phone.
Warm colour temperature aimed down at surfaces. The most common mistake outdoors is too much light, too cool, pointed at people.
This is wired architectural lighting, not festoon or solar. If string lights are what you want, they are a good cheap option and we will say so.
Every photo below is a Breslow installation across New Jersey, New York and Connecticut.
Adding to this page: A dusk shot of the beam lighting on with the louvers half open would sell this page better than anything currently on it.
Accessories are priced with the project, not bolted on after.
Size drives the investment first, then attachment to the house, then what you add. The pergola page publishes the full range — from around $65,000 for a 16 × 20 ft system — and exactly what that figure includes. See what it costs and what you get.
A free Zoom consultation first, then photorealistic renderings of the whole room on your actual home — structure, lighting and all — with a fixed-price proposal. Engineering and permitting handled or assisted where required.
