This Southern Yellow Pine decking project in North London uses different board directions to create a unique and appealing look. This form of decking is quite time intensive.
The deck also has waterproof storage underneath which is a fantastic use of the space and great way to hide all the bits and pieces that can clutter up a garden.
Square edges on a deck can give a 'box' feel in some
circumstances. To overcome this we sometimes make them 45 degrees. It creates a
softer feel - not to mention a more professional finish to the deck.
The angles on this area of the deck - together with the shaped decking balustrade - makes for a cosy little sitting area.
