Problems and Solutions

The Problem: (My Friend's House) What can be done with the exposed propane tank/wood storage and potting area off the garage. It has to stay, but it is an eyesore, and this is a place that hosts alot of outdoor parties and weddings. The garage remains as part of the house before the remodel and needs updating. Solution: Disguise it with a pergola, with lattice panels to allow airflow, a big winery style door to allow access, nice big beefy beams, with a butterfly garden in front. Pick up the eyebrow details from the rest of the house. Color sketch.
Side view (Lakeside) Other side view. Pergola rises above the existing shed roof, disguises it and works with it. (This project was completed, they chose not to paint the pergola and lattice white, but kept it rustic.)
The inspiration.
