I believe the area below the porch is finished. I have a similar design at my house and we have water infiltration issues into the finished area. How did you design this to avoid that problem? »
· Comment · 15 months ago
TEA2 Architects There is finished space below this porch. The structure below is concrete plank with a waterproof membrane which slopes to scuppers on the side of the porch.

What Houzz contributors are saying:
added by Beth Woodson and Kristy Harvey to A Chic Seat for Every Porch
Shiny white lacquer is such a fresh look for a porch, especially in contrast with a darker floor. Covered with cushions or all alone, the furniture has a clean and crisp look. For style that endures, try having your furniture sprayed with automotive paint at your local auto-body shop.
