Ideas for Unique, Interesting Decks
When you’re adding a deck to your home, you want something that’s going to be both enjoyable for your family and look great in your yard. If you want something dynamic and interesting, you will want to look at more custom, fresh design ideas.
Below you will find three great ideas for decks—think about how each of these would work in your space.
Front Yard Entry Deck
Usually, when you think about a deck, you probably think about your backyard. Some homeowners, though; are going a different route, and it will undoubtedly draw attention—front entry decks.
Instead of a traditional walkway and steps, these homeowners are creating tiered decks that lead the way to their front door.
It’s an entirely new approach to a front porch—what do you think? Would you try it?
A Partial Roof
Whether it’s an actual roof or an awning, more and more homeowners are adding some kind of permanent covering to their deck. Doing this creates a space you can use in many different kinds of weather.
This is a great way to make a deck transition from indoors to outdoors, and especially great if you want to entertain on your deck. Versatility makes a big difference in the functionality of a deck!
Focus on the Fire
Fire pits have been popular for years, and they have found their way right into backyard decks, becoming a part of the deck itself. Cook around a warm fire with your friends and family from your deck!
If you don’t want a full fire pit, there’s another option: a warming fire. These can come in a multipurpose design—turn the fire off and put a piece of wood on top, and suddenly your fire is now a coffee table! It’s an interesting option.
