DECK BENCHES

Adding built in seating around your deck makes your outdoor space more useful and inviting.

LIGHTING

An outdoor living space like a deck can benefit from some very simple lighting tricks.

DECK PLANTERS

Planters are a great way to really make your deck feel alive rather than just an empty space.

DECK BENCHES

Without benches your deck may lack character and warmth. It may just be a big expansive platform. But notice how this built in bench really added something both in terms of the look and function. It offers a place for people to sit around a hot tub spa. But it also defines the boundaries of the space. It acts as a replacement for railings on a low level deck like this.
