After years of enjoying their backyard, the clients of this property enlisted our firm to improve the original landscape we had completed over ten years ago. Our goal was to update the patio and further develop their backyard by creating a garden with a variety of color and texture.
Over time the existing patio had settled, plantings grew, and an existing Oak thrived. During the initial home and landscape construction our clients were particularly concerned about the health of the mature Oak located just off the home. Special care was given when the patio was first built. Precautions were again taken in working around the Oak as the existing patio was removed and replaced. Surrounding trees and shrubs had grown and enclosed the backyard limiting access. This required almost all work and transport of material to be done by hand.
The old concrete paver patio was replaced with bluestone. Existing mortared limestone around the edges of the patio levels were cleaned and tuck-pointed. A new stoop was constructed with mortared limestone risers and bluestone treads. A built-in grill and fireplace further updated the backyard space. The fireplace was designed to follow the organic curve of the patio. Mortared limestone and bluestone material were repeated on all elements, tying them together.
Along with the updated patio, many additions were made in transforming the modest backyard into a lush garden. Masses of annuals, ornamental grasses, and perennials along with mixed shrubs created sweeps of color and texture in front of a new arborvitae hedge and other existing trees and shrubs.
After careful planning and execution the completed landscape gave our clients the updated landscape they desired. The completion of the project was a rewarding and fulfilling experience as we transformed a good past project into a fantastic new project.

Situated along Eagle River, looking across to the mouth of the Ipswich Harbor, this was clearly a little cape house that was married to the sea. The owners were inquiring about adding a simple shed dormer to provide additional exposure to the stunning water view, but they were also interested in what Mathew would design if this beach cottage were his.
Inspired by the waves that came ashore mere feet from the little house, Mathew took up a fat marker and sketched a sweeping, S-shape dormer on the waterside of the building. He then described how the dormer would be designed in the shape of an ocean wave. “This way,” he explained, “you will not only be able to see the ocean from your new master bedroom, you’ll also be able to experience that view from a space that actually reflects the spirit of the waves.”
Mathew and his team designed the master suite and study using a subtle combination of contemporary and traditional, beach-house elements. The result was a completely unique and one-of-a-kind space inside and out. Transparencies are built into the design via features like gently curved glass that reflects the water and the arched interior window separating the bedroom and bath. On the exterior, the curved dormer on the street side echoes these rounded shapes and lines to create continuity throughout. The sense of movement is accentuated by the continuous, V-groove boarded ceiling that runs from one ocean-shaped dormer through to the opposite side of the house.
The bedroom features a cozy sitting area with built in storage and a porthole window to look out onto the rowboats in the harbor. A bathroom and closet were combined into a single room in a modern design that doesn't sacrifice any style or space and provides highly efficient functionality. A striking barn door made of glass with industrial hardware divides the two zones of the master suite. The custom, built-in maple cabinetry of the closets provides a textural counterpoint to the unique glass shower that incorporates sea stones and an ocean wave motif accent tile.
With this spectacular design vision, the owners are now able to enjoy their stunning view from a bright and spacious interior that brings the natural elements of the beach into the home.

North Seattle Complete Design-Build Deck with Underdeck DrySpace Project
Project Overview
In North Seattle, M3Decks & Outdoor Living completed a comprehensive design-build project, transforming a residential backyard into a multi-functional outdoor living space. The project featured a modern elevated deck with an innovative underdeck DrySpace system, seamlessly blending practicality with aesthetic appeal to suit the Pacific Northwest climate.
Scope of Work
Design Phase: Created a custom design for an elevated deck, prioritizing open space for entertaining and a sheltered underdeck area. The design incorporated sleek railings and a natural aesthetic to complement the surrounding greenery.
Construction: Built the elevated deck using TimberTech composite decking and Fortress Steel Framing for durability. Installed a TimberTech DrySpace system beneath the deck to create a dry, usable space for additional outdoor living or storage.
Staircase and Lighting: Constructed a sturdy staircase with inset lighting on each step, ensuring safety and adding a warm ambiance for evening use. The staircase featured modern black railings to match the deck’s design.
Landscaping Integration: Worked with the existing landscape, preserving mature trees and adding native plants like hydrangeas to enhance the natural setting and create a cohesive outdoor environment.
Key Features
Elevated Deck: Spacious TimberTech composite deck with sleek black railings, designed for entertaining and enjoying the scenic views of North Seattle’s greenery.
Underdeck DrySpace: TimberTech DrySpace system installed to provide a weatherproof area beneath the deck, perfect for additional seating, storage, or future outdoor amenities.
Inset Lighting: Energy-efficient lighting integrated into the staircase and deck perimeter, enhancing safety and creating an inviting atmosphere for nighttime use.
Biophilic Design: Incorporated native plants and preserved existing trees to create a seamless connection with the natural surroundings, enhancing the outdoor experience.
Outcome
The North Seattle design-build project delivered a stunning and functional outdoor space that elevated the homeowners’ lifestyle. The elevated deck provides a perfect spot for entertaining, while the DrySpace system ensures the underdeck area remains dry and usable year-round, even in Seattle’s rainy climate. The modern design, combined with practical features like inset lighting and durable materials, resulted in a low-maintenance, high-value addition to the property that the homeowners can enjoy for years to come.

| DETAILS | in concrete constructed condos it's very rare that we ever want to have to core new drain locations. For the Master Ensuite more and more when we do full renovations down to studs we are removing the terrible 5' tubs and tiny itty bitty 3x3' showers. For some reason the idea of luxury meant squeeze as much as you can so you have a long list of features when you go to market. More and more we are doing oversized his and hers showers. So when you have a drain that you are repurposing from previous plumbing fixtures and the drain isn't centred, it's pretty much magic to have the team surprise you after several site meetings and evaluations - we opted for the plumbers favourite to use Schluter linear tile over drains and have the oversized tile cut to fit and provide the necessary grout lines for a flush shower threshold. This might seem like nothing but is everything when we have the perfect tile layout be inline with the what we think is a centred drain. These are the kind of details that make my OCD sister inside so happy, we call it the centre flush drain happy dance. Kudos to @caisleydevelopments @4thdimensionconstruction with the help of @stonetilevancouver for finding a perfect subtle sand toned oversized porcelain. A large format tile in a shade and same tone value as our hardwood floor and one shade darker than our Baltic Birch flush panels for ease of cleaning and hiding dirt. When you want things clean I opt for showers with minimal detailing to be in shades darker than white. Cleaning becomes less treacherous. Also gone is this idea of ugly accent tile, we opt for uniform tile one material throughout a bathroom floor to ceiling and if possible all walls. Construction geekery 101 continues

Traditional tile shower with beige stone-look tile in a straight lay pattern on shower walls and tiled corner bench. Also, tiled shower floor with cut and tumbled flat beige pebbles, with a Schluter center drain. Included with a recessed niche tiled with beige stone look tile to match and a decorative liner using a stone mosaic, continuing around the shower walls.

About: If you're looking for an idyllic coastal beach home, look no further. This light and bright open floor plan has all the amenities of a luxury property, from the gourmet kitchen with its large island and top-of-the-line appliances to the custom ceiling design and wood flooring throughout.

The warmer season, upcoming Super Bowl Sunday, and a raging pandemic. These were the problems plaguing the World of Beer Bar in Tampa Bay, FL, when they got in touch with us for an outdoor bar pergola solution.
Outdoor Project
They wanted to entertain massive crowds of people and watch parties, but the guests could be limited to an outdoor seating space due to the area’s pandemic restrictions. The solution for the restaurant patio cover was the louvered roof system.
The World of Beer Bar decided on a modern pergola with an automated louvered roof to create an outside terrace where their customers can enjoy Super Bowl while maintaining the government’s SOPs due to the pandemic. They loved our R-Blade pergola as it offered a covered outdoor space where they could receive and entertain their guests.
They wanted the industrial patio cover installed on their outdoor terrace to offer rain protection to their customers. But they also wanted a part of the terrace to be uncovered so that their customers can enjoy the beautiful day outdoors.
R-Blade pergola design with the louvered system was the perfect solution for this beer bar’s outdoor space.

The challenges of this outdoor bar pergola project
Working on this outdoor bar pergola while keeping the pandemic restriction.
4 louvered roofs opening altogether as well as independently
outdoor bar pergola louvered roof with better sealing and less chance of leaks
4 louvered roof that open and close independently - outdoor bar pergola
This industrial patio cover for the outdoor terrace consists of 4 louvered roofs mounted to the bar’s wall. Additionally, the client wanted these roofs to open and close independently so that their customers can enjoy a nice beer and enjoy the Super Bowl watch parties outside when the weather’s good.
Automated screens for wind and rain protection
The R-Blade bioclimatic louvered roof installed at the outdoor terrace comes with outdoor screens, a rain sensor that prompts the pergola to close automatically when it detects rain. Moreover, the outdoor bar pergola has a wind sensor for automatic opening whenever it detects a strong wind force.
While offering the perfect ambiance to this convivial sports bar, it shelters the customers from winds during watch parties and gatherings.
Moreover, our modern louvered roof system is complemented by Azenco’s well-engineered invisible gutter system to drain the rainwater immediately, ensuring that the space under the pergola remains dry.
Grey bronze structure to match the bar’s overall look
We installed grey bronze structures that go very well with the sports bar’s overall look and ambiance. They also asked for white louvers to perfectly contrast with the grey bronze structures giving the outdoor bar pergola a more sophisticated yet friendly vibe.
The pergolas were designed to perfectly blend with the bar’s exterior, offering the perfect place for beer and sports enthusiasts to connect over their favorite teams in the Super Bowl.
Outdoor bar pergola features and Azenco’s solutions
As a result, we created an amazing restaurant patio design for the World of Beer Bar to entertain their guests outside even during the pandemic restrictions.
The louvered system was designed to blend with the sports bar’s look, so the structures were attached to the outdoor wall and crafted in grey bronze while the louvers were white.
Before the renovation, it was just an uncovered terrace on the second story of the patio. But now it’s the perfect outdoor sitting area for customers who come to enjoy the outdoors and watch Super Bowl. The elegant-looking louvers protect the customers from rain or the sun, while the uncovered part gives guests the perfect outdoor experience.
Not to mention that Azenco successfully installed the louvered roof before the Super Bowl 2021 started as the client needed to arrange an outdoor terrace to receive the guests.
Turnaround time
Manufacturing: Custom manufactured adjustable white louvered roof with grey bronze structure. Delivery in 4 weeks.
Mounting On Site: 4 days deal with specific timing and scheduling to ensure that the mounting doesn’t interfere with opening hours.

Large Experimental Abstract Art
Piece Titled: "Out of Line"
In a chic contemporary loft space with dark grey concrete walls is a large unique, abstract artwork titled, "Out of Line". The artwork is alive with fluid yet chaotic black lines that seem to be in motion. Blends and blurs of deep turquoise, vibrant orange, and seductive purple are mixed thought the piece.
You might imagine this feeling as a 'clean messiness', or a ' luxe grunge style'. It's a eye-catching creative atmosphere for the multicultural urbanite.
Art is mounted to an elegant, matte acrylic glass. Art arrives ready to hang.
