Architectural pergolas combining steel and composite beams to optimise light, comfort, and modern outdoor living.
Project Overview
| Client | Birdhaven Development |
| Industry | Commercial |
| Commissioned | September 2025 |
| Location | 198 Oxford Rd, Illovo, Johannesburg, 4126 |
At the Birdhaven development, Timeless Group was tasked with enhancing the indoor-outdoor living experience through the installation of architecturally designed pergolas. These structures were installed at both the sales office and show units, serving as key visual and functional elements of the development. By combining steel structures with composite beams, the pergolas were designed to maximise natural light during winter while providing shade and comfort during the summer months. The result is a refined, modern outdoor feature that adds both lifestyle value and architectural appeal to the development.
