This Columbia home had one deck which descended directly into their backyard. Rather than tuck their seven person hot tub on the concrete patio below their deck, we constructed a new tier. Their new deck was built with composite decking, making it completely maintenance free. Constructed with three feet concrete piers and post bases attaching each support according to code, this new deck can easily withstand the weight of hundreds of gallons of water and a dozen or more people. Aluminum rails line the stairs and surround the entire deck for aesthetics as well as safety. Taller aluminum supports form a privacy screen with horizontal cedar wood slats. The cedar wall also sports four clothes hooks for robes. The family now has a private place to relax and entertain in their own backyard. Dimensions In Wood is more than 40 years of custom cabinets. We always have been, but we want YOU to know just how many more Dimensions we have. Whatever home renovation or new construction projects you want to tackle, we can Translate Your Visions into Reality.

Verlässt man die Wohnung über die zweite Etage, so gelangt man auf eine wunderschöne Dachterrasse von der man einen 360 Grad Panoramablick über die Dächer Berlins hat. Ein wunderschöner Ort der bisweilen nicht zum Relaxen einlud. Daher erweckten wir mit geschickten Tricks die Terrasse aus ihrem Dornröschenschlaf. Die Kundin folgte unserer Empfehlung, auch hier mutig ins Farbspiel zu gehen. Ein Outdoor-Loungesofa mit farbigen Bezügen und Kissen lädt jetzt zum Verweilen ein. Außerdem finden sich in jeder Ecke der großzügigen Terrasse hochwertige Outdoormöbel, auf den in Ruhe gelesen oder gearbeitet werden kann. Abgerundet wird alles mit einem indirekten Beleuchtungskonzept sowie sonne- und hitzeresistenten Pflanzen. Hier entschieden wir uns für lange Gräser und Farne sowie bienenfreundlichen Edellavendel. Hinzu kam ein Bewässerungssystem der Marke Gardena, welches individuell auf die Bedürfnisse der einzelnen Kübelpflanzen geplant und installiert wurde.

On this project, the client was looking to build a backyard parking pad to ease frustration over the endless search for city-parking spaces. Our team built an eclectic red brick 1.5 car garage with a rooftop deck featuring custom IPE deck tiles and a metal railing. Whether hosting a dinner party or enjoying a cup of coffee every morning, a rooftop deck is a necessity for city living.

Affordable Metal Railing Terrace Ideas and Designs

There’s nothing quite like an outdoor space with a view and if you’re elevated up high then there’s more chance of getting that view. Even if you’re not blessed with a natural view from your home, an elevated space outdoors will at least give you the chance to survey the land in front of you; whether that’s a few square metres or whole acres! A terrace is one way of achieving this as it gives you the flat surface of a patio but elevated; either on a flat roof, as decking in your garden, or extending out from your house at ground level or higher. Whether a terrace is your only outside space and you want it to function as a garden or you’ll be using it as a dining or seating area, there are all sorts of design ideas, furniture, plants and accessory options to think about.

How do I decorate or design a roof garden?

UK homeowners are resourceful when it comes to outside space and will make the most of anything they can get their hands on, so it’s no wonder that in urban areas and cities we look to the roof for a place to get some rays. A roof terrace can work in just the same way as a decking area, but you just may need a few extra elements to make it more comfortable – a way of shading an area from the sun, perhaps a parasol or sun shade, a touch of green to break up the stark nature of a roof, and a drainage system that will stop rain water collecting in colder months. If you want to create a whole garden on your roof you’ll be a little more restricted than when on ground level. Plants may have to remain potted, but you can find companies that design and install green roofs – systems that allow plants to be planted into the roof surface. However, green roofs can be costly and tricky to install, so stick to pots and raised flower beds if you want to stay on the safe side. Loungers, deck chairs and rattan chairs are great pieces of roof garden furniture as they’re portable and can be moved around your rooftop garden easily; perfect for sun chasers. However, if you want to create a larger sense of space for your roof terrace design, think about built-in benches or seating around the sides or a corner of your roof garden.

What to consider when designing garden decking

A decked garden area may look simple once finished, but there are so many factors to consider when it comes to putting together decking ideas. You’ll need to think about the materials you want to use, the balustrades or railings you might choose, whether you will have a raised deck and decking steps, and whether you want decking lights.

Which decking material is best?

Composite decking is a popular choice for outdoor deck material because it offers a combination of practicality and style. The boards are made of wood and plastic fibres so that the classic wooden look is kept but the plastic fibres mean they will be much more durable and easier to maintain than traditional hardwood. If you can’t resist the natural look and feel of hardwood decking boards, then yellow balau, iroko and ipe decking are suitable outdoor boards that will give you the classic feel of a traditional wooden deck. Remember, with hardwood decking you will regularly need to treat the wood to keep it clean, waterproofed and to maintain the colour. As wood is usually more of an investment than composite or plastic decking, it’s a good idea to speak to decking specialists or timber merchants because they will be able to advise you on the best wood for your design and how best to treat it. You may find that different decking materials are better to suited to different types of terraces; whether that’s on a roof, in the garden or on a balcony. Whether you are designing a terrace, balcony or decked garden area from scratch, or just looking to decorate what you already have, take a look through the photos on Houzz to find terrace and balcony ideas and inspiration.
