★ 3RD STREET INN® DECK TILES - 3rd Street Inn® Deck Tiles are made from 100% solid acacia hardwood. Acacia is known for its excellent resistance to rot and decay from outdoor elements including rain, sun, mold, mildew, and insects. Each 3rd Street Inn® Interlocking Patio Tile provides 12"x12" (1 Square Foot) of coverage and is available as a 6-pack (6 Square Feet), 10-pack (10 Square Feet), and 20-pack (20 Square Feet). ★ EASY INSTALLATION & NO HARDWARE NEEDED - 3RD STREET INN® interlocking deck flooring features snap-lock connectors for easy DIY installation without the use of tools or hardware. Install our interlocking deck cover tiles in your area by lining them up and then stepping on the seams until you hear an audible "click" to lock them in. All 3rd Street Inn® deck flooring options are made completely hardware free so that there aren't any components to rust and break down in the outdoor elements like other inferior tile patio decking ★ INDOOR AND OUTDOOR DECK FLOORING - 3rd Street Inn® Patio Tiles create a beautiful space both inside and outside. All that is needed is a solid surface and the deck flooring can be laid directly on top of it. Our composite deck tiles can be installed on top of concrete, wood, carpet, pavers, or any other solid surface. Great for decks, patios, balconies, around pools, saunas, showers, sun rooms, mud rooms, bedrooms, and more. ★ DURABLE BEAUTY - 3rd Street Inn® interlocking composite deck tiles are sanded and oiled for a beautiful, scratch resistant finish. All 3rd Street Inn® outdoor patio flooring is non-slip and great for high or low traffic areas inside or outside of the home. To increase the lifespan of your tile decking when used for outdoor applications, standard decking care is recommended. For best results, coat your decking with a UV-rated weatherproofing sealer twice a year and re-stain as needed. The tile decking can also be painted different colors in order to create the look that you want! ★ VERSATILE INSTALLATION OPTIONS- 3rd Street Inn® Interlocking Flooring Tiles not only look great in permanent installations on decks, patios, and around pools, they also offer a great temporary solution for installations in apartments and condos that can easily be removed when needed. For a custom fit, the interlocking patio tiles can be easily cut with a skill saw or jigsaw to accommodate areas of all shapes and sizes. Add 3rd Street Inn® Wooden Deck Flooring to your home and bring your space to life! We recommend using a UV rated weatherproof sealant twice yearly. This sealant is a crucial step in the life of the decking tiles and can extend the life of the decking tiles, in some cases, pending the climate, by 1 to 2 years. The life of a decking tile is heavily dependent on the climate of where they are located. Hot, humid climates, rainy climates, and cold, snowy climates can cause the decking tiles to deteriorate faster than using them in a climate controlled environment, like inside of a house or indoor venue.

With stunning views of the Annisquam River, this beautiful first period home was constructed in 1690 for Nathanial Harraden, sailing master of the USS Constitution. It is believed to be the oldest remaining house in this neighborhood of Gloucester. Our extensive historic restoration preserved the integrity and historic details of the original structure, which had been altered significantly over time. Deteriorated structural elements were repaired or rebuilt, and historic elements including beams were revealed. A bright new kitchen and bathrooms provide a functional layout suited for modern living, and use authentic natural materials that will patina and weather in harmony with the rest of the home. The new island counter was hewn from a large decaying tree on the site, and hand-painted marble tiles adorn the backsplash. New cabinetry was hand-crafted using methods authentic to the time. We preserved the kitchen’s existing brick floor, which originally provided a durable surface for milking animals inside during cold winter months. Using authentic materials and craftsmanship of the era, this special house celebrates its historic character and embraces modern updates that will welcome home generations to come.

This client of ours loves to entertain. We were commissioned to completely redesign his backyard space to include a Pavilion, an outdoor kitchen, and a fire pit area. Preparation for this work included demolishing existing deteriorated concrete and a non-functioning Koi pond. We decided on a 12′ x 14′ layout for the Cedar Pavilion. Sconce lighting, infrared heating, and a ceiling fan were added to the scope of the Pavilion project to maximize the space’s usability. For the outdoor kitchen, we chose a 38″ Delta Heat unit for the grill with matching access doors, a 20K BTU Hestan Side Burner, and a Hestan Refrigerator. We chose soapstone for the countertop and backsplash, and we veneered the kitchen structure with natural San Miguel cobblestone. The construction of the fire pit area required engineering measures to prevent damage to the nearby pine trees’ root systems from the planned improvements. This was accomplished by designing a sophisticated ventilation system installed under the patio and seat wall to allow the tree roots to continue breathing. The firepit and surrounding seat wall were constructed of CMU block and veneered with natural San Miguel stone from Telluride. Light fixtures from Unique Lighting were discreetly tucked under the seat wall cap to enhance the area’s nighttime ambiance. Large decorative mossback landscape boulders were imported to create visual interest in the setting. The plant selection for the project included ‘Panchito’ Manzanita, Dwarf Burning Bush, ‘Isanti’ Dogwood, ‘White Bud’ Mugo Pine, Japanese Astilbe, ‘Blue Giant’ Hosta, and Variegated Iris.

Photography by Natalie Marotta This special project is an extensive renovation of Better Homes And Gardens’ “The House You Asked For” of 1953. While the California Case Study-inspired architecture was an interesting break from 1950’s boxes, its extensive single-pane glass, internal roof drains, and slab construction were leading to structural deterioration through condensation and leaks, and a massive carbon footprint. The renovation took the form of slight plan adjustments–giving the kitchen more space, combining two entry doors into one entry space, adjusting the bedroom-bathroom area–and reworking the roof. We added a raised portion to carry ducts for conditioning and ventilation, which was also an opportunity to create spatial interest and bring in light from above, and we re-sloped the roof to drain to the perimeter instead of the middle of the house. Carbon-sequestering wood fiberboard insulation was added to the walls, and the windows were replaced with triple-glazed units. With new heat pump heating, cooling, and water heating, the operational carbon footprint was reduced by 93%.

This outdated and deteriorating master bathroom needed a modern update after sustaining a leak. We had worked with them in the past on their kitchen and they knew the design and remodeling level of excellence we brought to the table, so they hired us to design a modern master-suite. We removed a garden tub, allowing for a walk-in shower, complete with a heated towel rack and drying area. We were able to incorporate showcasing of their orchids in the design with an orchid shelf on the exterior of the shower, as well as searching high and low to provide vessel bowl sinks that had a unique shape and utilizing contemporary lights. The end result is a spa-like master suite, that was beyond what they had hoped for and has them loving where they live. Discussions have begun for their next project.

The renovation of this brownstone in Fort Green, Brooklyn was complicated by the discovery of deteriorated masonry in the rear yard extension. Forced to rebuild the extension from the ground floor up, the design was able to then articulate a new clean volume with a vast picture window that wraps the corner, effectively bringing the yard into the kitchen. New supporting steel was added to the rear wall of the living room, allowing for a large new opening where only small windows previously existed.Location: Fort Green, BrooklynCompletion: Summer, 2007Size: 1000 s.f.Contractor: Giancola ContractingPhotography: Seong Kwon

Originally built in 1892, this quaint log cabin has undergone a transformative renovation while preserving its charming character. Located near the Little Deschutes River in Central Oregon, within the historic Vandert Homestead, the home now boasts bright, open spaces for everyday living, complete with flexible aluminum clad folding doors. Working alongside contractor Bales Inc., architect Jeff Klein from Klein Architecture led the renovation with the goal of opening the once dark interior to natural light and the surrounding landscape. Central to the design was transforming a deteriorating garage into a new functional sunroom, creating a light-filled space that reorients the cabin design toward the patio and natural environment. Restoring a Historic Cabin with Aluminum Clad Folding Doors outdoor living with aluminum clad folding door A Revamped Cabin Design for Indoor-Outdoor Living The former garage is now a transitional space between the cabin and a natural stone patio. Positioned along the south elevation, the sunroom captures daylight throughout the day while acting as a buffer between the interior and exterior environments. A revised roof assembly was developed to resolve previous drainage failures. Working with framers, the design team incorporated a sloping roof system with a waterproof membrane to direct water away from the structure. This approach not only protected the log walls but also created access to a rooftop deck from the upper level, adding functional outdoor space without expanding the building footprint. “It was also critical to transform the existing dark, segmented interior spaces by physically opening them up to the new sunroom,” says Klein. “NanaWall systems offered the ideal solution for what we were after.” historical homestead interior Improving Spatial Flow, From the Kitchen to the Sunroom The kitchen remained largely intact during the renovation, retaining many of the elements that had defined the cabin’s character for decades. Features such as the farmhouse sink, concrete countertops, butcher-block island, and built-in seating were retained, creating a perfect blend of old and new. What changed was how the kitchen connects to the surrounding rooms. The layout now flows naturally into an adjacent dining area before extending into the newly added sunroom, delivering a seamless transition from the interiors to the outdoors through aluminum clad folding doors.

Designed as a bright, welcoming space, it connects the historic cabin to the natural stone patio beyond. Interior designer Sue Olson helped create the room's atmosphere by choosing finishes and furnishings that complement the cabin's rustic materials while keeping the space open and inviting. The sunroom captures sunlight throughout the day and serves as a flexible space for dining, relaxing, and entertaining. The addition was designed to sit comfortably alongside the existing log structure while introducing expansive glazing and aluminum clad folding doors that draw daylight deep into the home.

Spanning more than thirteen feet wide and nearly eight feet tall, the system allows the entire façade to open when the panels are folded back. Specified with pine wood frames and simulated divided lites, the door complements the cabin’s traditional materials while introducing the flexibility of modern indoor-outdoor living. When closed, the door frames the view while bringing daylight into the sunroom. When open, the space seamlessly flows into the patio. Plus, customized with double glazed panels, these aluminum clad systems offer an insulated barrier that keeps cold weather out and keeps comfortable interiors year-round. “The NanaWall system was the ideal solution for the proposed design,” says Klein. “The result is a seamless connection between the sheltered interior area and the openness of the outdoor environment.” aluminum clad folding windows A Folding Window Creates an Indoor-Outdoor Bar Complementing the folding door and indoor-outdoor cabin design, a NanaWall aluminum clad folding window was installed at bar height along the sunroom wall facing the patio. Stretching more than thirteen feet across and just over four feet in height, the opening transforms the wall into a casual indoor-outdoor serving counter. Specified with matching pine wood frames and simulated divided lites, the system folds away easily, creating an indoor-outdoor bar that encourages interaction between the sunroom and patio. When open, the counter becomes a flexible gathering point for meals, drinks, and conversation, allowing those inside and outside to share the space comfortably. “The NanaWall door and window systems played a pivotal role in achieving our design objectives,” says Klein. “The connection between the indoor and outdoor environment has become seamless.” inoor-outdoor living with clad folding windows and doors The Flexible Design Solution for Every Home Style Beyond creating large openings, the NanaWall aluminum clad folding doors were chosen for how well they integrate with the cabin’s traditional architecture while delivering modern functionality. The wood clad panels, specified with simulated divided lites, reflect the style and charm of classic window detailing, while panels that fold outward maximize usable space inside the cabin. Minimal frames maximize glass area, drawing natural light deeper into the sunroom and adjacent spaces. Paired with higher weather performance sills, the systems are built to withstand the region’s climate while allowing the sunroom to shift easily between a sheltered interior space and an open-air extension of the patio. Additionally, NanaWall aluminum clad systems feature clip-on cladding technology that allows the wood to breathe in environments where temperatures are extremely hot, humid, or cold. This, in turn, aligns with the renovation’s goal of resolving prior drainage and moisture issues. outdoor living with NanaWall aluminum clad systems Final Thoughts: Historic Cabin Design Reimagined for Modern Living Today, the Vandevert Homestead perfectly blends old-time charm with modern living.

We repaired the damaged and deteriorated wood around the entryway and column, completed the necessary prep work, and repainted everything for a clean, bright finish. This tall entry now looks refreshed and is better protected from the elements.

This exterior painting project in Bolton, MA focused on revitalizing the home’s appearance while improving long-term protection against the elements. The existing exterior showed signs of wear, including faded paint and minor surface deterioration. The project included full surface preparation, including cleaning, scraping, sanding, and priming, followed by the application of high-quality exterior paint. Trim, siding, and architectural details were carefully finished to ensure a clean and cohesive look. Our team maintained a clean and organized work environment throughout the process, delivering a consistent and professional result. The finished exterior provides a fresh, updated appearance with improved curb appeal and long-lasting durability suited for New England weather conditions.

We started as a kitchen remodel but discovered there was mold in the majority of the exterior walls as well as the attic. The mold was caused by a number of problems but namely because the waterproof paper wrap on the house had deteriorated and was moisture to pass through the stucco and into the wood framing. In addition there was a leaking air conditioner condenser in the attic that was draining saturating the wood above the master bedroom. The mold was causing health problems it became clear we needed to replace a large majority of the framing and prevent future problems. So we went from a kitchen addition/remodel to rebuilding the majority of the home and adding 800sqft; including a new bedroom, expanding the master bedroom and bath as well as a walk-in closet. In anticipating for aging in place, we installed a walk-in shower with a bench and grab bars to allow for future wheelchair access and reduce trip hazards.

At Deskins Siding & Exteriors, we understand that not every homeowner is ready for a full exterior remodel all at once. That’s why we offer flexible, phased solutions—like this recent project in Cypress, TX. About 5–10 years ago, this homeowner upgraded their failing siding with James Hardie fiber cement, but only patched the OSB-based fascia at the time (similar to today’s LP SmartSide products). During a recent roof installation, much of the remaining fascia was revealed to be deteriorating. That’s when they called us. We replaced the compromised trim with smooth Hardie fascia and repainted all existing trim to extend its lifespan. The result? A cohesive, durable finish that protects the home and enhances curb appeal—without the cost of a full tear-out. Whether you're tackling siding, roofing, or trim repairs, our design-driven approach ensures every detail works in harmony.

This complete bedroom renovation transformed a dated and damaged space into a bright, modern retreat. The project began with the removal of deteriorated materials and exposed ceiling beams, addressing insulation, wiring, and drywall to restore structural integrity and improve energy efficiency. Once the framework was rebuilt, new drywall, recessed lighting, and energy-efficient windows were installed to enhance brightness and comfort. The walls were finished in a neutral warm white for a clean, timeless look, while the new hardwood flooring added warmth and character to the room. This renovation perfectly showcases how thoughtful design and expert craftsmanship can completely revitalize an interior — turning an unfinished space into a functional and inviting bedroom ready for daily living. ?

This modern home in Houston’s Energy Corridor was designed with clean lines and bold geometry — a true reflection of contemporary style. When the homeowner noticed water intrusion around the aging front windows, it was time to take action. At Deskins Siding & Exteriors, we removed the deteriorating vinyl siding from the front elevation and installed Hardie® lap siding at a contemporary angle, enhancing the home’s architectural character while improving durability and moisture protection. We also replaced the original entry with a sleek, modern iron door unit that complements the updated façade and reinforces the home's design vision.

How to Tell When a Design Trend is Timeless Design trends come and go, but some styles withstand the test of time. Whether in architecture, interior design, or branding, timeless design is one that remains relevant and appealing for decades. But how can you tell if a trend is truly timeless or just a fleeting fad? Here are key indicators to help you identify designs that will never go out of style. 1. Simplicity Over Complexity Timeless designs are often clean, simple, and functional. They avoid excessive ornamentation or gimmicky elements that might feel outdated in a few years. Classic materials, neutral color palettes, and well-balanced proportions contribute to a look that remains fresh over time. 2. Rooted in Functionality If a design prioritizes function as much as form, it is more likely to endure. Practicality and usability should be at the core, ensuring that the design continues to serve its purpose efficiently. In construction, for example, well-planned layouts and durable materials contribute to long-lasting appeal. 3. Inspired by Nature Natural elements, such as stone, wood, and earth tones, have always been a staple of timeless design. Since nature itself is everlasting, incorporating organic textures and colors helps create a look that never feels outdated. 4. Influenced by History, Not Hype Timeless designs often take cues from historical influences that have proven their longevity. Architectural styles like mid-century modern, classical, and industrial remain relevant because they have strong foundations in design principles rather than passing fads. 5. Balanced and Harmonious Composition Good design follows fundamental principles such as symmetry, proportion, and scale. If a trend maintains a sense of balance and harmony, it’s more likely to stand the test of time. Designs that feel chaotic or unbalanced tend to fade quickly as they become overwhelming or impractical. 6. Adaptability Across Different Eras A timeless design is versatile enough to blend with evolving styles and trends. Whether paired with modern elements or classic details, it should integrate seamlessly without looking out of place. 7. Enduring Materials and Craftsmanship Materials and craftsmanship play a major role in a design’s longevity. High-quality materials like marble, hardwood, and concrete age beautifully, while cheap, synthetic alternatives often deteriorate and lose appeal. Investing in quality ensures a long-lasting impact. 8. Avoiding Overly Trendy Details Fads are often characterized by extreme variations in color, form, or material. If a design heavily relies on a specific moment’s aesthetic (like neon colors in the '80s or millennial pink in the 2010s), it will likely feel outdated once the hype fades. 9. Emotional Connection and Comfort Timeless design tends to evoke a sense of comfort, nostalgia, or familiarity. Whether in architecture, web design, or fashion, people gravitate toward designs that make them feel at ease and connected to something meaningful. Conclusion The key to identifying a timeless design trend is recognizing qualities that prioritize longevity, function, and balance over fleeting hype. Whether designing a website, a home, or a brand identity, choosing elements that are simple, high-quality, and adaptable will ensure lasting appeal. Do you want a design that stands the test of time? Let’s create something that never goes out of style!

Updating a modern classic These clients adore their home’s location, nestled within a 2-1/2 acre site largely wooded and abutting a creek and nature preserve. They contacted us with the intent of repairing some exterior and interior issues that were causing deterioration, and needed some assistance with the design and selection of new exterior materials which were in need of replacement. Our new proposed exterior includes new natural wood siding, a stone base, and corrugated metal. New entry doors and new cable rails completed this exterior renovation. Additionally, we assisted these clients resurrect an existing pool cabana structure and detached 2-car garage which had fallen into disrepair. The garage / cabana building was renovated in the same aesthetic as the main house.

As part of this South Vancouver condo renovation, the bathroom was fully modernized to create a cleaner, more functional space within the existing footprint. The redesign focused on improving storage efficiency, introducing a streamlined vanity system, and updating surface materials for durability and long-term performance in a multi-unit residential setting. A new contemporary vanity with integrated storage replaced the original deteriorated cabinetry, while updated flooring provides a cohesive and low-maintenance finish suited to strata living. The refreshed layout enhances visual simplicity, improves lighting balance, and creates a brighter overall atmosphere. This bathroom renovation demonstrates how strategic material upgrades and precise installation can significantly elevate compact condo spaces without structural reconfiguration.

Transforming this long-standing home on Bradgate Rd required more than a simple update—it called for a careful balance between renewal, structure, and respect for what was already there. The existing brick bungalow had strong bones, but the exterior was deteriorating, the carport was underutilized, and key interior spaces no longer supported the homeowners’ needs. Having lived in the home for decades, the goal wasn’t to start over—it was to rework the home into a more functional, comfortable space that could support the years ahead. The scope included a full exterior masonry refresh, where the front layer of brick was removed and replaced while maintaining the integrity of the original structure. The carport was fully enclosed and integrated into the home as a garage, and a new roof tied everything together with consistent detailing and long-term performance in mind. Inside, the layout was carefully reworked to introduce a new primary ensuite and completely renovate the main bathroom. Plumbing, mechanical, and electrical systems were updated throughout, with a focus on accessibility, ease of use, and everyday comfort. The result is a home that feels both familiar and elevated—where thoughtful construction and refined design come together to support long-term living without compromising character.
