Contemporary Zen Den Pavilion Single Pitch

Why Our Most Popular Structure

Stability

This style is built in the Kingston double beam style construction with curved interlocking braces and uses Dovetail joint connections for beams and rafters. Our interlocking braces attach between two beams and give the structure significant stability.

Luxury

We have not skimped in any way with the finishes of the Zen Den. The ceiling is made with solid pine 2″x6″ tongue and groove, which gives a beautiful V-groove appearance. It is topped with a quality standing seam metal roofing. Don’t forget the lighting, fans and other powe options!

No Permit

Most cities require a permit for outdoor structures with a footprint of 200 sq’ or more. The Zen Den has been designed specifically to cover a large area without needing a permit (check with your local officials). Because, of its unique design, the Zen Den has a footprint of 199 sq’, but covers over 335 sq’. This is done with the cantilevered pergola and roof overhang.

Best Value Structure

The Zen Den has become one of our most popular structures, because it has so much to offer! This structure brings it all together; beauty, function and price! Furthermore, this style has been designed specifically to cover a large area, but with a footprint small enough most cities do not require a permit.

We have spared no expense in this design, but have made it affordable! In addition, the Zen Den also features a beautiful tongue and groove ceiling, Dovetail joint construction, Kingston double beams, and interlocking knee braces.

Designed with a Cantilever

The large braces, Kingston construction, and Dovetail joints provide the stability to make the cantilever possible. The Zen Den footprint is 17’4″ x 11’6″ and the cantilevered pergola on the front of the structure extends the shade coverage to offer an added level of visual interest. The combination of large timbers and thick ceiling makes this a great structure in any climate… even those with a lot of snow!

The Zen Den is a great way to finish off your outdoor space if you are wanting some covered area but like the aesthetics of a pergola!
