Pergola Designer: See a Pergola on Your Patio with AI

HausDraft’s pergola designer adds a pergola to a photo of your patio, deck or backyard. Choose a style and the AI builds it at a realistic size, posts, beams and slats included, with outdoor seating, lighting and planting underneath. Try timber against black metal, or a freestanding pergola against one attached to the house, and see which suits your home before you order a kit or hire a builder.

Your patio, with a pergola on it

Pergola catalogues show the product on a staged set. Here the pergola is drawn into your photo, against your house wall and over your paving, so you can judge size, height and placement.

Compare materials and styles quickly

Warm cedar, painted white timber, black aluminium or a modern louvered roof. Generate each on the same photo and compare them side by side instead of guessing from samples.

Furnished and planted, not bare

The AI adds outdoor seating, string lights and climbing plants under the pergola, so you see how the space will be used, not just the frame.

Design my pergola

Good to know about designing a pergola

Sizing, materials and what to check before you build or buy a kit.

Cottage garden

Getting the size right

A pergola should cover the furniture under it with room to walk around and clear head height comfortably. Common patio sizes run from about 10 by 10 to 12 by 16 feet. Use the design to check proportion against your house before you order.

Wood, metal or louvered

Cedar and redwood look warm but need resealing; aluminium and steel need little upkeep; louvered roofs open and close for sun or rain but cost more. Generate the same space in each to see which suits your house.

Permits and attaching to the house

Freestanding pergolas are simpler to install, while attached ones need a ledger fixed to the house structure. Many areas require a permit above a certain size, so check local rules before building from the design.
