This Manning Lane project in Dallas was designed to transform an existing poolside setting into a sophisticated, highly functional outdoor living and entertainment space centered around a custom Renson louvered pergola system.

The Renson structure creates a true extension of the home, providing adjustable shade and protection while defining dedicated areas for dining, lounging, and entertaining. Integrated linear lighting, ceiling fans, radiant heaters, and warm wood-toned privacy screens allow the space to remain comfortable and inviting throughout the year while giving the structure a refined architectural presence.

A built-in television and entertainment area creates a natural gathering point beneath the pergola, while strategically placed custom fire features bring warmth and atmosphere to the surrounding pool environment. The combination of fire, lighting, architectural shade, and existing water features gives the backyard an entirely different character after sunset.

The finished space brings together the pool, outdoor living area, and home into one cohesive environment—creating a versatile backyard retreat designed for relaxing, entertaining, and enjoying the outdoors throughout the seasons.
