Wait, This Expensive-Looking Pergola From IKEA Costs Way Less Than I Thought It Would — And It's Not in Basic 'Garden Gray'

Beyond just a refined respite from the summer sun, a pergola adds undeniable style and shelter to your garden, no matter the season. But alas, the typical price tags can prove an unfortunate deterrent. The silver lining to this painful pergola predicament? IKEA's surprisingly stylish flat-packed design that you can get for just over £300.

No matter what pergola ideas you've been pinning, your shade sanctuary should include a few key features: durability, practicality, and, of course, a design-forward aesthetic. For that, IKEA's HAMMARÖN pergola is generously sized with a gray-beige canopy that scores for both form and function. Tick. Tick. Tick.
