Hot Deck Trends for 2021
Larger Decks for Gathering
In 2021, the bigger the deck, the better. Larger, more spacious decks offer homeowners an opportunity to incorporate more dining and living accommodations for family and friends to enjoy. Whether a sprawling one level deck, or multiple levels, larger decks have become increasingly popular.
Outdoor Entertainment
For those that love to entertain, we’ve seen a trend of incorporating outdoor kitchens and theaters on the rise. Wood-fired ovens, conventional ovens, smokers and grills, full bars, waterproof televisions, and sound systems are just of few of the possibilities that can turn your deck or porch into an entertainer’s dream.
Fire Tables and Pits
Nothing feels better on those cool Northern Colorado nights than relaxing outside by a nice, cozy fire. Now that many fire tables and pits offer a smoke-free design, you can enjoy including one in your new deck, without worrying about all the fumes.
Decks with Gardening Space
If you are worried that your new deck or porch might take away valuable gardening space, a cost-effective approach is to incorporate the garden into the deck with deck railing accessories. Deck accessories and planters can be attached or built in directly to the deck railing, eliminating the need to use potters or limited space in the yard. Show off your green thumb in 2021 with a gardening space on your new deck.
Decks/Porches with Ceilings and Privacy Walls
Deck/porch ceiling and walls have become a popular addition when building or renovating a deck. Whether creating a rustic look with reclaimed barn wood or a more sophisticated appearance using elegant wood, you can make reflect your unique style and creativity, while providing ample shade and privacy, by incorporating deck ceilings and walls. Don’t forget the lighting fixtures to set the perfect ambiance!
Under-the-Deck Storage and Use
When building a new deck, homeowners often overlook the valuable space under the deck. Consider making use of that space by adding deck drawers, a custom shed, storage boxes, a sandbox for the kids, or even an enclosure for your pets. The potential for under-the-deck usage is full of possibilities.
Decks with Playgrounds
Who says a deck can’t accommodate the kids? If your deck boasts a full story below it, you could create the perfect playground for the kids to enjoy. Whether sandboxes, slides, swings, or rock walls, transform your deck into a safe place for the kids to play while you cookout on the grill or visit with friends.
Relaxation with Water
Nothing relieves stress like relaxing in the water, and when you incorporate a hot tub or swim spa into your deck or porch, you can do just that! The rise in popularity of adding water features to a deck or porch is a great way to help you relax and soak away the stress for years to come.
