Celeste·Outdoor
Shade, living, architectural extension.
In Southern California, outdoor space is living space. Celeste designs and builds outdoor structures that extend your home's architecture into the landscape — shade structures, pergolas, patio covers, and outdoor rooms that are built to the same standard as the home itself.
Scope of Work
What we do.
Pergolas
Freestanding and attached pergola structures — wood, aluminum, and composite — designed to complement your home's architecture.
Patio Covers
Solid and lattice patio covers — attached to the home or freestanding — providing shade and weather protection.
Shade Structures
Sail shades, tensile structures, and custom shade solutions for pools, patios, and outdoor dining areas.
Outdoor Rooms
Fully enclosed or semi-enclosed outdoor living spaces — with roofing, screens, and structural elements that extend the home.
Product Philosophy
We specify what we believe in.
Outdoor structures in Southern California must perform in intense sun, occasional heavy rain, and coastal conditions. Celeste specifies materials and systems that are built for this environment — not residential-grade products dressed up as architectural elements.
Structural Integrity
All Celeste outdoor structures are engineered for Southern California wind and seismic loads.
UV Resistance
Materials specified for outdoor use in high UV environments — not interior-grade products used outdoors.
Architectural Consistency
We design outdoor structures to be consistent with your home's architectural language — not generic catalog products.
Permit Compliance
All Celeste outdoor structures are designed and permitted to code — no unpermitted work.
Process
How a Celeste outdoor project works.
01
Site Assessment
We evaluate your outdoor space — sun angles, prevailing winds, drainage, and the architectural context of your home.
02
Design
We develop a design that addresses your functional goals and is consistent with your home's architectural character.
03
Permitting
We prepare and submit permit applications — handling the process so you don't have to.
04
Construction
Precise construction with attention to structural connections, flashing, and finish details.
05
Completion
Final inspection, documentation, and a walkthrough of your new outdoor space.
Southern California considerations.
Sun Angle
Southern California's sun angles vary significantly by season. Proper orientation and sizing of shade structures maximizes comfort year-round.
Santa Ana Winds
Outdoor structures must be designed for Santa Ana wind events — which can exceed 60 mph in some areas.
Coastal Conditions
Near the coast, material selection must account for salt air, marine layer moisture, and UV intensity.
HOA Requirements
Many Southern California communities have HOA restrictions on outdoor structures. We review requirements before design begins.
