How to Design Your Dream Composite Decking Space
Introduction:
The outdoor space is just as important as the indoors. And since we're all spending more time at home these days, having a comfortable and functional outdoor space is more important than ever. So, why not spruce things up with a deck? But not just any deck – a composite deck, which offers durability and low maintenance. In this blog post, we'll share some tips on how to design your dream composite decking space.
Take a look at the shape and size of your garden:
Before you start designing, assess your outdoor space. Look at the shape and size of your yard and determine what type of deck will fit best. For instance, if you have a small yard, you may opt for a smaller deck or even a patio. Conversely, if you have a large yard, you can consider a larger, more elaborate deck.
Choose the right composite decking material:
When choosing the composite decking material, consider durability, low maintenance, and aesthetic appeal. Aesthetically, composite decks come in a variety of colours and textures so ensure what you choose complements your house. Durability-wise, look for composite decking with high resistance to moisture and insects. And for low maintenance or if you want a more sustainable option, go for composite decking made from recycled materials.
Consider the layout:
The layout of your deck is as important as the material you choose. If you plan to entertain and host outdoor dinners, consider adding an outdoor kitchen, dining, or seating area in a way that maximizes the outdoor space. Ensure that the layout allows for traffic flow so that people can move around freely without feeling cramped. It's also essential to consider the direction of the sun when planning the layout.
Add lighting:
Lighting adds warmth and ambiance to your deck during evening hours. Consider adding lighting in strategic places where it is needed, such as around your outdoor dining area, pathways, and by steps. Focus on low-voltage systems that are energy-efficient and can add drama to your space.
Finally, hire a professional:
Designing a composite deck can be fun, but it can also be an excellent opportunity to add value to your outdoor living space. If you're not confident about your design skills, you can consider hiring a professional deck designer. They can recommend the best materials for your deck, suggest the most efficient layout for your space, and even plan for outdoor lighting.
Conclusion:
Your outdoor space is a fantastic extension of your indoors living experience. With a well-designed composite deck, you can create an outdoor retreat where you can relax or entertain all summer long. With the tips discussed herein, you can create a dream composite decking space that is functional, durable, and aesthetically appealing. Don't hesitate to contact a professional to help you achieve your outdoor dreams.
