Smart Deck Design

by Brian Weber

With American families spending more and more time decorating and enjoying outdoor rooms, the deck has become a logical extension of the home, nearly as common as a garage, entryway, or driveway.

There’s virtually no limit to the purposes your new deck will serve—grilling and dining, sunbathing, relaxing beneath a gazebo, and accommodating kids’ outdoor play, just to name a few. Down the road, you may even choose to enclose it to create a screened area or a sheltered three-season room.
