About this asset

This freestanding modern pergola Revit family features a timber-slatted roof supported by four cylindrical concrete columns. Designed with a minimalist aesthetic, this pergola comprises a series of parallel timber slats arranged horizontally to provide filtered shade. The structure is anchored by four robust, cylindrical concrete columns, providing a stark material contrast between the warm, natural-wood finish of the overhead timber and the grey, industrial aesthetic of the base pillars. The assembly is framed with structural timber beams that support the slatted roof, ensuring clear spans between the supports. The geometry is clean and linear, making it suitable for contemporary landscape designs where structural clarity and material honesty are desired.

As a native Revit family, this pergola is intended for placement within site plans or 3D site models. Users can align the base columns to the finished grade or slab level and adjust the overall dimensions to suit specific site constraints. Materials for the timber slats and concrete columns can be assigned via the family type parameters to match project-specific render finishes. The file is lightweight, ensuring minimal impact on model performance when used to populate multiple exterior zones.

When searching for this type of component, professionals often look for terms like timber shade structure, garden pergola, or exterior landscape feature.
