Deck - country deck idea

You need only look at the before picture of the SYI Studio space to understand the background of this project and need for a new work space. Susan lives with her husband, three kids and dog in a 1960 split-level in Bloomington, which they've updated over the years and didn't want to leave, thanks to a great location and even greater neighbors. As the SYI team grew so did the three Yeley kids, and it became clear that not only did the team need more space but so did the family. 1.5 bathrooms + 3 bedrooms + 5 people = exponentially increasing discontent. By 2016, it was time to pull the trigger. Everyone needed more room, and an offsite studio wouldn't work: Susan is not just Creative Director and Owner of SYI but Full Time Activities and Meal Coordinator at Chez Yeley. The design, conceptualized entirely by the SYI team and executed by JL Benton Contracting, reclaimed the existing 4th bedroom from SYI space, added an ensuite bath and walk-in closet, and created a studio space with its own exterior entrance and full bath—making it perfect for a mother-in-law or Airbnb suite down the road. The project added over a thousand square feet to the house—and should add many more years for the family to live and work in a home they love.

Woodland Construction Group has masterfully transformed a 1962 split-level ranch home on the west side of Portland. This complete whole home renovation has breathed new life into the home while respecting its timeless charm. The kitchen remodel was a focal point, with its size significantly increased and fully custom cabinetry, Cortez countertops, and a large island. The addition of a wine bar and coffee bar, along with an expanded entertaining area, have made this once small kitchen into a functional mid-size kitchen and the favorite gathering spot. The addition of black Marvin 12-foot sliding glass doors invites an abundance of natural light, creating a bright and welcoming ambiance. New French White Oak hardwood flooring adds a touch of luxury and chic. The bathrooms were also completely remodeled, featuring modern fixtures and luxurious finishes yet preserving their classic style. This whole home renovation by Woodland Construction Group is more than a remodeling project; it's a testament to how a thoughtful new design and layout can transform a dated space into a vibrant, modern home without losing its original charm.

The idea of this bi-level deck is to lower the sight line of the guardrail while creating a seating area to enjoy the view. The deck is ipe. The bench is meranti, as is the guardrail with Fortress iron spindles.
