Motorized, retractable Phantom Executive screens transform patios and porches into comfortable and welcoming outdoor living spaces. These motorized screens from The Shade Shop retract to be out-of-sight and out-of-mind until you decide you want to utilize them. When the summer sun feels a little harsh, put your solar mesh screens down with the touch of a button to shield the UV rays. Alternately, choose the insect mesh to allow for natural ventilation, while still keeping those pesky mosquitoes from entering your outdoor oasis.

The custom wood railing was designed as a screen to add privacy to the deck.
Inspiration for a small contemporary back porch remodel in Providence with decking

Most porch additions look like an "after-thought" and detract from the better thought-out design of a home. The design of the porch followed by the gracious materials and proportions of this Georgian-style home. The brick is left exposed and we brought the outside in with wood ceilings. The porch has craftsman-style finished and high quality carpet perfect for outside weathering conditions. The space includes a dining area and seating area to comfortably entertain in a comfortable environment with crisp cool breezes from multiple ceiling fans. Love porch life at it's best!

The goal of this project was to provide privacy for a gas fire pit area in the back yard and to create a nice and clean look that was relatively easy to maintain while providing great curb appeal. We built a cedar privacy screen with contemporary lines and ran the gas line to a Rundle fire pit area that had the potential to upgrade to a paver patio in the future if desired. We finished with trenched downspouts, concrete edge, an engraved address rock and natural stone steps down the walkout.

Inspiration for a traditional privacy and full sun landscaping in DC Metro.

A redwood driveway gate, a redwood privacy fence and a redwood screen frame this front-yard drought-tolerant landscape. The redwood driveway gate is automatic and framed with black-painted steel. The tall redwood privacy fence extends along the driveway which is large concrete pavers over DG-decomposed granite. The drought-tolerant design includes the DG, cactus succulents and gravel.

The client wanted a better flow throughout their landscape, as well as introduce straight lines to a space to modernize the irregular shaped pool. Their upper deck was where they did a majority of their entertaining so ensuring this space was large enough for both dining and lounge was the starting point of the design. Introducing privacy from the many on looking neighbours, without completely blocking it off from the rest of their own yard was important. Laser cut privacy screens added this filtered privacy. A round hot tub was added to the back corner of the property, which otherwise seemed like wasted space. Highlighted by the privacy panels in the same pattern used on the deck to create some consistency. Trees were both maintained and added where needs along the property to add greenery and privacy. The entire space now feels open within the backyard, but private from neighbours.
