Built for Gulf Coast Weather

Bring Your Dream Yard to Life with Big Easy Outdoor Design

Custom outdoor spaces for New Orleans homeowners — patios, decks, outdoor kitchens, pergolas & gazebos, and sunrooms, engineered for our heat, humidity, and rain, not just designed around them.

Summer Humidity~90%Typical relative humidity most New Orleans mornings before noon, June–September.
Annual Rainfall62"+New Orleans averages some of the highest annual rainfall of any major U.S. city.
Hurricane SeasonJun–NovSix months a year, outdoor structures need to handle sudden wind and rain.

The Real Enemy Isn’t the Heat: It’s the HumidityA backyard built without shade and drainage in mind fights the climate every single day.

Uncovered Space

  • Direct sun drives surface temperatures up fast in Louisiana summers
  • Furniture and finishes take the full brunt of UV and afternoon downpours
  • Standing water after storms if grading and drainage weren’t planned in
  • Unusable for entertaining during peak mosquito months

Covered & Engineered Space

  • A pergola, gazebo, or sunroom cuts direct sun exposure and keeps surfaces cooler
  • Proper drainage and sealed materials shed sudden Gulf Coast rain instead of holding it
  • Stainless and moisture-resistant materials stand up to salt air and humidity year after year
  • A space you can actually use through the humid, buggy stretch of the calendar
