Revamping the Deck Space
If you’ve never heard of it, porch sitting is an old American
tradition. Comprised of sitting leisurely on a front or back porch, the
tradition used to be a staple of culture. It offered a relaxed opportunity to
be directly or indirectly social with those that passed by or with neighbors
and friends engaged in the same behavior. It was a particularly popular
activity for good weather, warm summer nights, or for weekends.
At Creative Environments, we want to bring back this historical tradition but
with a modern flair. Instead of unwinding in the evenings by watching
television, we want to encourage our clients to head outdoors and relish a
beautiful environment under the sky on an outdoor porch or deck.
Whether to read, talk, or eat, a great deck or backyard porch provides the
perfect stage for an evening as it unfolds. Here are several great ways to
spice up your property to enjoy the outside environment:
Make it Comfortable
Today, the backyard furniture market has plenty of options tailored to
fit your taste. From high-design and durable outdoor sofas to spa-like deck
chairs, you name it, it exists. To truly utilize your space, you need it to fit
your taste, and to be comfortable. Add some throw pillows and an umbrella, or
blankets and a heater to be sure to stay cozy year round.
Well Lit
A relaxing outdoor environment is one that considers good design
practices in lighting. A combination of soft overhead lights add ambiance while
directional pathway lights bring in a more practical angle, informing guests where
to go.
Outdoor Amenities
Just like the indoors, you can have all that you need outdoors as well. Whether
a kitchen for cooking, a bar for making cocktails, a stereo system, craft an
environment that caters to your wants.
