A freestanding pergola with outdoor dining, a lounge and a kitchen counter. Wet-location downlights sit in the pergola's light pods on a wider beam, chosen so the rows don't leave dark bands, and dim to warm tape under the counter lifts it to its food prep level.
- Scope
- Pergola dining and lounge, outdoor kitchen counter
- Systems
- Wet-location dim to warm downlights, dim to warm tape in a sealed aluminum profile, 24 V phase-dimmable drivers
