About this collection
Wood Deck Ideas, explained.
Nothing quite matches a real wood deck underfoot. These designs use cedar, redwood, ipe and modified hardwoods, from crisp modern platforms to wraparound porches with a swing.

What to look for as you browse
- 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
