Beautiful Redwood Deck with Arched, Stucco Columns

A Classic Design for Modern Outdoor Living

Our clients had a large, aging deck that no longer met their needs.  During the design phase, they decided to preserve the original footprint and layout because it complemented the architecture of the home and the surrounding landscaping.  The new deck would maintain the timeless look the owners loved while upgrading all the materials.

Durable ConCommon Redwood Installed at 90-Degrees

To bring new life to the space, we rebuilt the deck using ConCommon Redwood, a popular choice for its warm look and durability.  The deck boards are installed at a 90-degree angle to the joists, incorporating single dividing boards to avoid butt-seams and maintain a clean, consistent visual flow across the entire surface.

Deck Stairs with a Custom, 180-Degree Turn Landing

A major improvement to the functionality of the deck is the custom staircase featuring a 180-degree turn landing.  This design provides safe, comfortable access to the lower outdoor living area while fitting seamlessly into the home’s landscape.  The landing also enhances aesthetic appeal and adds an architectural focal point to the deck’s structure.

12″ x 12″ Stucco Support Posts with Decorative Arch

A signature design element of this project is the set of massive 12″ x 12″ stucco support posts.  Between each post is a beautifully framed stucco arch, tying the deck structure visually to the home’s exterior stucco and creating a cohesive, elegant appearance.

Finished in a Solid-Body Stain

To complete the project, both the deck and railing were stained in PPG Russet, a warm, rich solid-body stain that will provide excellent weather protection.

A Space to Enjoy Colorado Views All Year Long

With its refreshed design, durable materials, and improved access, this new deck has become a favorite gathering space for our clients.  They now enjoy their outdoor living area more than ever – especially the gorgeous Colorado views visible from every angle.
