Start with the problem the space needs to solve

Make the deck more comfortable during strong sun and passing rain while keeping it open to the backyard.

  • The cover must relate cleanly to the home roofline and exterior materials.

  • Drainage, gutters, ceiling height, lighting, and fan locations should be planned as one system.

  • Future screening is easier when openings and circulation are considered early.

The complete result matters
