This winter seems to be taking forever to switch over, especially since we’ve been dumped with more snow than I can remember. Many of us in northern climates feel the same way, desperate for summer, or even weather in the upper 50’s! I’m looking forward to transforming our backyard into a serene space. The main area of focus is a deck or patio that is great for relaxing and entertaining. Here is a collection of ideas I have. Some of the spaces and pools may not be realistic, but bits and pieces are. This is what inspires me. Oh, and if you are looking for a reputable company to make these dreams come true, I would recommend a company like Imperial Building & Roofing Co Inc.
Backyard Deck & Patio Inspiration beautiful wood deck with fireplace, overhead heater and built in benches patio with white beams, strung lights, California feel. Love the plants and dark wood floor in contrast to the white house/beams. The strung lights look amazing and the pool is so clean looking. Love the palm trees in planters and the teak wood furniture. nice outdoor setup with benches, table, and strung lights. cool for a separate oasis in addition to a deck. love the privacy, the slate, high walls, and perfect green landscape make this look very stately. white brick fireplace, slate patio. simple outdoor space. love the white picnic table too. cool pergola and nice gravel surround and stone work ignore everything but the deck and this looks cool. I like the idea of building a jacuzzi into a deck. and i like the trees hanging over the deck. Also, the steps and stonework are nice. this deck material is beautiful and simple. I think it’s a mahogany deck. I like how it goes right up to the uncut grass. i love the idea of a built in pool. not a huge one, just a small square, simple soaking tub that can be heated in the winter… deck goes right up to it. I love this narrow deck and simple pool. perfect. reminds me of little compton, rhode island style. i like the steps and built in planters / benches on this deck. Not so much the colors or anything else. love this white pergola, picnic table and decking. nice how it’s attached to the house with a deck above it. could do this with a master bedroom. just because you have a small deck doesn’t mean it can’t look beautiful.
