When my parents sought a townhome in the city (as part of their quest to live in a more walkable area than the sprawling town they had been living in), they were thrilled to find that their top pick had a small patio and \u201cmicro yard.\u201d It was this outdoor space that sealed the deal! But actually decorating and making use of that small space would prove to be quite challenging.  My mom\u2013who has a few courses in decorating under her belt\u2013explained to my dad that the key to creating a beautiful outdoor space is to give the area defined boundaries, so it feels more like a room instead of a wide open space. But my parents were facing a challenge because they were tasked with creating a space with defined borders while also preventing that space from feeling small or \u201cclosed in.\u201d  So how do you balance these two factors? Well, it is achievable with the right strategy, and my parents\u2019 strategy involved a pergola. Pergolas are ideal for small patios and tiny urban yards because they offer structure to your outdoor space without adding solid visual barriers like you would with something like a wooden stockade fence. You can see through the open and airy rafters of a pergola, and that makes it possible to avoid creating a space that feels small and boxed in. We came across a lot of pergola ideas for small patios in our research, and here are some of the ones we liked best."}
