One of the most important decisions when considering your dream kitchen is its layout, whether you’re embarking on a custom build or updating your existing kitchen. After all, it’s the one room in your house that likely gets the most use, so you’ll want to choose a kitchen design trend that offers longevity and functionality, and that satisfies your aesthetic and creative style.

One of the most important decisions when designing a home is determining the layout. And, one of the most popular and functional layouts today is the open floor plan design.

Adding a deck to your home is a common feature many home builders add to their designs. While not necessary, it can add much value to a home beyond monetary value.

While luxurious features, like hot tubs, are appealing, practical and more inexpensive upgrades can also make your deck a great space for everyday use. Here are some useful features you can add to your deck design to enhance your outdoor experience.

They have stood the test of time, captivating homeowners with their distinctive, clean character and cozy aesthetic.
