If you have a sturdy, well-situated pergola, the metamorphosis is possible. Imagine giving your pergola a gala costume in the form of glazing, transforming it from a simple garden shed into an elegant extension of your home. This transformation creates an additional living space that can be used all year round, a bit like adding a new room to your castle without building a dungeon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"240\" height=\"240\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lapergolamarseille.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/ezgif.com-optimize-3.gif\" alt=\"Why is the veranda jealous of the pergola?

Because it has a better view of the stars!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What's the difference between a pergola and a veranda?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Comparing a pergola to a veranda is a bit like differentiating a sunny terrace from a cosy living room. A pergola, whether lean-to or freestanding, is an open space, an invitation to enjoy the fresh air while protected from the scorching sun. A veranda, on the other hand, is like a glass cocoon, an enclosed, glazed room that extends your home. It gives you extra space to live, relax or even garden, sheltered from the vagaries of the weather. So, pergola or veranda? It's a bit like choosing between an ice cream on the terrace or a cup of tea by the fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lapergolamarseille.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/parasol-chairs.webp\" alt=\"What&#039;s the difference between a pergola and a veranda?\" class=\"wp-image-1598\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lapergolamarseille.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/parasol-chairs.webp 800w, https:\/\/www.lapergolamarseille.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/parasol-chairs-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.lapergolamarseille.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/parasol-chairs-768x512.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How can I enclose a pergola cost-effectively?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Enclosing a pergola without emptying your wallet is a bit like dressing a mannequin in chic, economical second-hand clothes. One of the most affordable options is to use curtains. You can buy them ready-made or make them yourself from inexpensive fabrics. It's a bit like hanging a stylish scarf around your pergola's neck. Curtains are easy to install with rods or brackets, and they add a touch of style while protecting you from curious onlookers and the sun's rays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lapergolamarseille.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/patio-with-pergola-table-with-chairs1.webp\" alt=\"How can I enclose a pergola cost-effectively?\" class=\"wp-image-1408\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lapergolamarseille.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/patio-with-pergola-table-with-chairs1.webp 800w, https:\/\/www.lapergolamarseille.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/patio-with-pergola-table-with-chairs1-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.lapergolamarseille.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/patio-with-pergola-table-with-chairs1-768x512.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What a license to build a pergola ?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If your pergola project looks like a small castle (over 40 m\u00b2), you've entered the realm of planning permission. It's a bit like applying for a visa for a trip to a faraway country. This can be done online or by filling in a paper form, a bit like choosing between sending an e-mail or a handwritten letter. This permit is your passport to avoiding hassle with the town hall and ensuring that your pergola is as legal as it is impressive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lapergolamarseille.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/modern-pergola-with-seating-area-design-rendering.webp\" alt=\"What a license to build a pergola ?\" class=\"wp-image-1324\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lapergolamarseille.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/modern-pergola-with-seating-area-design-rendering.webp 800w, https:\/\/www.lapergolamarseille.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/modern-pergola-with-seating-area-design-rendering-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.lapergolamarseille.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/modern-pergola-with-seating-area-design-rendering-768x432.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Transformer une pergola en v\u00e9randa, c&rsquo;est un peu comme transformer une grenouille en prince charmant, mais avec moins de magie et plus de bricolage.
