MasterDecks, LLCThis Kirkland, WA deck resurfacing and repair project involved extensive structural upgrades and a complete transformation of the deck's appearance while preserving the existing framework where possible.
The scope included removing an aging hot tub, demolishing an existing half wall, and replacing it with a modern aluminum cable railing system to improve views and safety. Areas of siding affected by the half wall were repaired and restored to create a clean, finished appearance.
Due to moisture-related wear, 12 deck joists and their hangers were replaced as part of the structural rehabilitation. The deck, which features approximately 300 square feet of elevated surface reaching nearly 16 feet above grade, required careful material handling and installation due to steep terrain and limited side-yard access.
The existing decking was replaced with premium TimberTech Terrain composite decking in Vintage Weathered Teak, creating a low-maintenance outdoor living space with the warmth and character of natural wood. New picture-framed borders and finishing details enhanced the overall appearance, while strategic fascia installation was completed on visible interior step-down areas.
The result is a safer, stronger, and more visually appealing deck that maximizes the property's views while providing years of low-maintenance performance.
DConstructive USAThis residential project offers two housing options thoughtfully designed to adapt to the hillside terrain. The first option is a two-level home featuring 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, with an open-concept ground floor that combines the living room, dining area, and kitchen to create a modern and functional space. The second option spans three levels and includes 3 bedrooms, providing greater separation and privacy for families. All units are built using a steel frame structure with insulated walls, ensuring strength, energy efficiency, and comfort. Interiors follow a modern open-plan design with an emphasis on natural light and spatial flow. Each home includes an exterior parking area conveniently located near the entrance, designed to integrate seamlessly into the sloped site. The project addresses topographical challenges through tailored architectural solutions that blend the homes into the landscape while maximizing views and outdoor usabilit
MVK Landscape Design StudioORGANIC AND NATURAL DESIGN
A well thought out and organized naturalistic style garden design and landscaping compliment the natural terrain of the land and enhance the general theme of the home. In this project, we use natural granite boulders for the fountain accent art and for creating a very natural but dramatic look of the circular driveway island landscaping. We curved boxwood hedge around the existing driveway and soften the garden with hydrangeas, dogwoods, and groundcovers.

VanBrouck & Associates, Inc.VanBrouck & Associates: Inspired by the classical architecture of Palladio, this Italian villa was designed with a procession of beautifully proportioned, ordered spaces, with strong axial sightlines, to draw the eye through the spaces and beckon the individual to explore. Beautifully sited on acreage, the interior and exterior spaces are thoughtfully orchestrated to interact together, and to connect to the land. Stone loggias, at the entry, rear, and side of the residence, visually and literally extend the interior living spaces.

Gentle cross-breezes flow and natural light streams into the rooms from a series of French doors lyrically arranged throughout the spaces.

Archadeck - ColumbusWe enclosed the rafters of this screened porch with a rich, cedar tongue-and-groove ceiling. After doing that, we were inspired to add faux rafters using 4×6 cedar boards. When inspiration strikes, sometimes you just have to go where it leads – as long as you have the flexibility to make changes during construction.
