Need
The summer sun comes beaming into the kitchen and dining room, making things a lot hotter than they need to be.

Description
At first, I was thinking of an awning, but an awning that automatically rolls up in the winter and provides us with tasty fruit is much better!

Goal or deliverable
A new trellis over the patio area of the french doors in the dining room, the kitchen window, and possibly the main washroom.
