Inspiration for a large transitional backyard deck remodel in Minneapolis with no cover

This is an organic Lime Wash done with a true lime wash product as opposed to a brick mortar or concrete that is often seen on new houses. This product can be applied as a solid coating making the surface completely white, or can be applied and "washed off" in many artistic ways, as seen here. If you hate your brick or just want something unique this is a great option! Photo credit: Jeff Murrey

Outdoor Deck with Vinyl Pergola.
Inspiration for a small modern backyard deck remodel in Miami with a pergola

This one-room sunroom addition is connected to both an existing wood deck, as well as the dining room inside. As part of the project, the homeowners replaced the deck flooring material with composite decking, which gave us the opportunity to run that material into the addition as well, giving the room a seamless indoor / outdoor transition. We also designed the space to be surrounded with windows on three sides, as well as glass doors and skylights, flooding the interior with natural light and giving the homeowners the visual connection to the outside which they so desired. The addition, 12'-0" wide x 21'-6" long, has enabled the family to enjoy the outdoors both in the early spring, as well as into the fall, and has become a wonderful gathering space for the family and their guests.

This contemporary San Francisco home features recycled and sustainable building materials throughout, including Fiberon Composite Cladding used in a rain screen application and a Fiberon composite deck. The owner/architect chose Fiberon Horizon Ipe for its dramatic look: rich colors and multi-chromatic streaking bear a striking resemblance to real Ipe but composite boards are easier to install and easier to maintain. There’s no staining or refinishing needed.

The exterior of this home is a modern composition of intersecting masses and planes, all cleanly proportioned. The natural wood overhang and front door stand out from the monochromatic taupe/bronze color scheme. http://www.kipnisarch.com Cable Photo/Wayne Cable http://selfmadephoto.com

The upper level of this gorgeous Trex deck is the central entertaining and dining space and includes a beautiful concrete fire table and a custom cedar bench that floats over the deck. Light brown custom cedar screen walls provide privacy along the landscaped terrace and compliment the warm hues of the decking. Clean, modern light fixtures are also present in the deck steps, along the deck perimeter, and throughout the landscape making the space well-defined in the evening as well as the daytime.

Horizon Composite Cladding was specified for this application because of its details which include rich, warm undertones and dramatic streaking. It was the perfect choice because the reversible boards when used as fencing look great from both an interior and exterior perspective. The horizontal application added visual interest to this outdoor oasis.
