Why pay for a vacation when you have a backyard that looks like this? You don't need to leave the comfort of your own home when you have a backyard like this one. The deck was beautifully designed to comfort all who visit this home. Want to stay out of the sun for a little while? No problem! Step into the covered patio to relax outdoors without having to be burdened by direct sunlight. Photos by: Robert Woolley , Wolf

A homeowner in Blanchester, Ohio combined our vibrant Ipe posts with a subdued silver wood of their own. The top rail is made from the same wood as the decking, with Ipe beams running along the underside to provide added support and visually tie the whole thing together. These contrasting woods make for a striking outdoor addition!
