This AZEK deck design in Harvest finish was built to replace the clients’ original wood deck. The original deck had limited space, and felt closed off from the expansive backyard, which includes a pool. Our new low-maintenance deck design is not only larger, but now flows into the expanse beyond the back of the home, providing cohesion between the pool and the home. This AZEK deck also features low-maintenance Westbury railings on the top level and built-in bench seating on the bottom. An extra-wide deck stair maintains the open feel.

This custom multi-level deck renovation transformed the home's outdoor living space with Deckorators Venture composite decking, Westbury Tuscany aluminum railing, and a Delta Metals underdeck drainage system that creates a protected patio below. Designed for low maintenance and year-round enjoyment, the finished project provides multiple spaces for relaxing, entertaining, and taking in the surrounding lake views while complementing the home's architecture.

Small trendy rooftop outdoor kitchen deck photo in Chicago with decking and a pergola

This multi-level composite deck includes a curved bench from the same material — a very durable substance that won’t fade, chip, or splinter. Note: building it at ground level eliminated the need for a railing which saved some expense.

This house was designed for a couple and their son. One of the design program requirements was to have two master suites on the main level. They enjoy cooking and entertaining so the public and food prep. areas are functional, attractive and conducive to people gathering around. Consequently, the square footage of the main level is large.
The house is also on a very steep slope which didn't help with the required footprint. In order to minimize the related costs of building with this site condition, the footprint of the house is long and not deep as it reaches down the slope.
The scale of the existing homes in the neighborhood are unimposing. In order to play down the size as viewed from the street, the facade is broken up into several different masses with low sloping roofs.
Once you're inside, the house opens up with 14 foot ceilings in the entry and living areas. The ceiling height of other spaces on the main level are 10 feet. Universal design was implemented on the main level to provide inherent accessibility for everyone.
The lower level accommodates several guest rooms and baths, an exercise room, a guest den with wet bar and a man cave.
Another design program requirement was to make the house as maintenance-free as possible. Exterior materials include stucco, Pennsylvania Blue Stone and a new aluminum siding product called Longboard. The siding comes in many wood grain finishes and to everyone that has seen it, they think it's real wood. It's also made from heavy gauge aluminum so it doesn't ding like traditional aluminum siding. The roofs are metal standing seam.
The house is energy efficient. It's fully insulated with spray foam insulation-lots of it. The exterior walls were designed with 2x6 studs and roof rafters are 2x12 to provide plenty of space for the insulation, exceeding the required R-values. Windows and doors of course are energy efficient as well. All lighting is LED.
The decking around the exterior is locust, a very hard native wood which is naturally insect and rot resistant.
The best part of the whole project are the owners who love their new home. They initially had plans to live in this house during the summer months and Florida during the winter. They are now seriously considering living here full-time.
