I am interested in the Hexagonal Pergola Plan but would require a larger frame, more like 22′ X 22′ outside post to outside post. How much more would be added to the plan design cost?
Doug, what you describe would actually be a completely new design. You can check out our custom design service here.
This hexagonal pergola plan is impressive in both design and structural integrity. The use of 12×12 timbers for the posts and the incorporation of mortise and tenon joinery showcase the craftsmanship involved. One tip I would suggest is to consider adding some shade elements, such as retractable canopy or climbing plants, to provide relief from the sun during hot summer days. It’s a fantastic project that will undoubtedly enhance any garden space!
Thanks William!
