Pergola 



Pergola (sky-net)




This timber-framed pergola plays with the traditional use 
of climbing plants and lattice work in shade structures. 
































Instead of trellised plants, a sky-net made of marine-grade nylon rope allows adventurous users to enjoy socializing and solitude amidst the trees and rooftops of South Minneapolis.





































The plain-weave pattern 
of the sky-net provides 
shade to those below.
