Ipe Deck Featuring Flush Hot Tub
At dusk, integrated step lighting illuminates a weathered ipe deck featuring a flush hot tub set alongside native grasses and a timber house porch.
Design notes
Modern decks run boards in one direction, hide fasteners, use cable or glass rail and often step down in broad platforms rather than stairs. Composite or dark-stained timber keeps the surface uniform, and built-in benches replace loose furniture.
What to look for
- Board direction and how it changes the apparent size
- Edges: built-in benches and planters instead of rail where allowed
- Stairs wide enough to double as seating
