If you need more space to entertain but cannot enlarge inside living space, there is a beautiful and functional solution. Adding a deck onto the exterior of your home increases curb appeal and resale value while increasing entertaining space. Decks become an extension of your home and naturally provide an area to cook, eat or just relax. Another advantage to adding space outside is that it is an easier project than extending interior space. With so many finishes, textures and styles, the design choices are endless. There’s sure to be a deck to suit your home’s current décor and colors. These extra spaces are not just fair-weather features, you can enjoy them all year round so they are a good investment. For any concerns about size, materials and extra features, consult an Edison decks specialist. They can answer all your questions and make sure you get just what you need.

Inviting friends and family to gather for a meal and outdoor entertaining is one of life’s simple pleasures. But it doesn’t mean you can’t do it in style. A deck added onto your home becomes an extension of your home’s footprint. It becomes an extension of your living and dining spaces. Because of this, you want the transition to be as seamless as possible. When designing your deck, consider the room the leads onto it. Consider the wood and other natural elements and the color and décor style of the space. Design your outdoor deck the same way you would design another room of your home.

While you are designing your beautiful deck, don’t forget to also make it as functional as it is attractive. Built-in seating can also add storage space, as can ottomans.
