Weathered Wood Deck with Inset Pool
Weathered ipe wood decking frames a small sunken pool with dark coping, enclosed by a tall vertical wood privacy screen and accented with potted ferns beside a brick townhouse.
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
